The artwork used for the pack's Polycount entry image was a recreation of a still of Mustafa in the same pose, and the creator had admitted to watching Austin Powers a week prior to designing the pack.

**This is furthered by the entry's description mentioning a "line of three-question-format". In the film, Mustafa was unable to withhold answers after being asked the same question three times.

**The Spy's reluctance to die with the [[Dead Ringer]] may also be a reference to Mustafa's seeming incapability to die, somehow managing to (painfully) survive various tortures and accidents.

*This hat might also refer to the French film [[wikipedia:OSS 117: Cairo, Nest of Spies|''OSS 117: Cairo, Nest of Spies'']] a parody of the Spy film genre set in the 50s in which the eponymous character, played by the French comedian [[wikipedia:Jean Dujardin|Jean Dujardin]], wears in a scene a similar fez and a costume.

* The hat may also a reference to the henchmen from the video game [[wikipedia:The Operative: No One Lives Forever|''No One Lives Forever'']].

* The hat might also refer to the 1960's cartoon [[wikipedia:Secret Squirrel|''Secret Squirrel'']], in which the title character (a Spy) has a sidekick, Morocco Mole, who has similar headgear.
 
−
* The hat also bears a strong resemblance to that of the enemies spotted in No One Lives Forever, which is also placed in the 1960's, in Morocco.
 
−
*This is one of five hats to add an accessory in addition to the hat itself, the others being:
 
−
**The [[Hound Dog]], also giving the Heavy a pair of sunglasses.
 
−
**The [[Pugilist's Protector]], giving the Heavy a mouth-guard.
 
−
**The [[Attendant]], which gives the Pyro a bow tie.
 
−
**The [[Lumbricus Lid]], giving the Soldier a cosmetic set of Holy Hand Grenades.
 
  
−
* When this hat is worn with the [[Camera Beard]], the resulting look completely covers all of the Spy's distinguishing features (eg. eyes, face shape). This makes it the perfect combination for the Spy, as it would be even harder for his enemies to recognise him.
