Picked it up on Friday, and have to say, it's a pretty good edition, though it's no Vault Disney or "true" Special Edition.

The Color print is abysmal. Truly horrible. If they felt the need to include a colorized version, they could have a least done a whole new one rather than this early slapdash job. It honestly looks like a paint-by-numbers with probably 4 colors used throughout the whole thing. While I don't particularly support colorization, Disney should have at least let Legend Films do a new colorization. Their colorizations are pretty good, though of course, I'd still recommend the original B&W versions over colorization any day.

I liked the bonus features, they were a bit short, which makes me wonder if they were simply cut down. Would have been interesting to see the missing documentary that was originally announced when it was planned for the August 2004 release.

No trailers, as expected.

Found it strange that even though the new Disney DVD animation debuted this year, the old one was used on this DVD.
