Fallout TV show holding "iconic" stuff back for Season 2, including Deathclaws
Amazon's Fallout TV show has — a few minor controversies aside — been a hit with fans since arriving last week; but while the show has covered plenty of the video games' post-apocalyptic basics — from Pip-Boys and Power Armour to Vaults and Vault-Tec — not everything made the cut, and its creators have now explained they deliberately held back some «iconic» stuff, including Deathclaws, to better do them justice in a potential Season 2.

Text Vault-Tec's number from the Fallout TV show to get a potential teaser for a November announcement
I sort of reject that the Fallout TV show has Easter eggs hidden in it because it, as a whole, is the equivalent of one of those fancy Hotel Chocolat ostrich-sized patisserie collection bastards that cost 40 quid. However. Eagle-eyed viewers of the Fallout show noted that episode 6 gives you a number for Valt-Tec that you can actually get in touch with - 213-25-VAULT (or, 213-258-2858). Charges apply, as well as international codes if you're outside the US, which makes it 001-213-258-2858.
