I'm pretty sure that the easter egg is the Holiday Special cartoon.
Man, there's no way it's not that. After Empire, Lucas became fucking married to that character. Talk about over exposing, over explaining, taking away the mystique, and then running a character into the ground...

Lucas is even willing to dip into the God awful it doesn't exist Holiday Special if it will get him more mileage and more revenue stream out of Boba. Truthfully, I can't stand the character anymore.
You mean post Jedi. George confessed in the intervening years he couldn't fathom the cult of Fett. Otherwise why kill him off in such a slapstick fashion? It wasn't until the SW merchandising behemoth was reawakened in the 90's that the Boba Fettish began.
I fear the HS cartoon will be transferred from an old betamax tape found in a thrift store. ;)
