Alright, I decided to write a small article on something I noticed.
I have the 1998 VHS SP and the Special Edition DVD. I noticed that they fixed the colors with the characters to make them look a little bit more like the characters in TLK, so I researched it a little bit and found some information.
Compare this: http://www.mylionking.com/resources/sit ... ab_847.jpg , which is a screengrab from TLK, and this image that I stole from Wiki:
See in the top image, Simba is orange and his mane is like brownish red and Nala is...I don't even know? But they fixed it in the Special Edition DVD to make they look more like the Simba and Nala in that screengrab.
I also found a webpage on Vakasi's Simba's Pride Online website that has some great information on the differences between the original VHS and the Special Edition DVD: http://www.lionking.org/~vakasi/vhsdvd.html
