It is heavily implied that the pebbles are petrified eyeballs.
The most obvious indicator is that the pebbles are spherical and appear to have a hole the shape of an iris. It is also worth mentioning that all crows in the game drop pebbles, and that crows are known for eating eyeballs.

Attachment In Dry Dry Desert, north of Kolorado's camp you can find a yellow block which when hit multiple times will reveal three hidden '?' blocks which subsequently give you a Shroom (1 hit), Super Shroom (10 hits) and Ultra Shroom (100 times). This block keeps track of how many times you hit it and has a maximum unsigned four byte value of 4,294,967,295, which means that hitting it more than that amount would reset the blocks and spawn them over the existing ones allowing you to get the Shrooms again, which would take 36.29392 years to reach. Hitting the block another 4,294,967,295 times would reset it again, causing the hidden blocks to spawn over the existing ones again. Continuously repeating the process until the game freezes would take just over 416 years to achieve.

In the levels "Cortex Power" and "Toxic Waste", there are two enemies that appear to be genetically-altered gangster potoroos, similar to the boss character, Pinstripe Potoroo. This is unusual as no other genetically-altered animals appear as common enemies in the game.
This also implies that Dr. Cortex created a larger gang of potoroo enforcers, but because Pinstripe has rarely appeared in later installments, this has never been elaborated.

There are a number of references to the 1982 film Blade Runner, both in the form of easter eggs as well as Spoiler:inspirations in the game's overall story:

• On top of the Mass Fusion Containment Shed building, there is a dead Raider wearing a duster and a dead Synth. The two bodies are posed similarly to Rick Deckard and Roy Batty in the "Tears in the Rain" scene from Blade Runner.
• The Power Noodles stand in the center of Diamond City, along with the Noodle-serving Protectron named Takahashi is likely inspired by the noodle stand and it's japanese-only speaking owner that Deckard eats at in Blade Runner.
• The town of Covenant requires a psychological "G.O.A.T Test" before it can allow newcomers in. Spoiler:The reasoning behind it is to tell who is a genuine human and who is actually a "Synth", very similar to the Voight-Kampf Test's done in Blade Runner, which is done to expose if the person being tested is a Replicant or not.
• Spoiler:A good portion of the game's plot/backstory involves the "Synths", who are inspired by the Replicants from Blade Runner, in the sense they can mimic humans almost perfectly and hide among them. There are even runaway Synths trying to find freedom, similar to the runaway Replicants Deckard is tasked to find in Blade Runner.
• Spoiler:Nick Valentine is arguably a product of inspiration from the movie, as he fits the "neo-noir" motif of Blade Runner.

The full make and model of the 10mm pistols in Fallout and Fallout 2 is "Colt 6520 10mm pistol".
Starting with Fallout 3 and moving forward into New Vegas, the 10mm pistol is referred to as the "N99 10mm pistol".

They both fulfill the role of being a relatively common pistol for the wasteland, with a simple, easy to produce and replicate design. This is however, effectively a retcon to prevent legal issues with Colt.
