They're not BAD, they're just drawn that way !
Doesn’t the CAV LD of WFRR have the missing frames?

Song of the South characters actually make cameos in this film, most notably the three moles who accompanied Uncle Remus on "Zip-a-Dee-Doo-Dah." They appear with Peter Pig, who didn't make it as big as his more famous avian co-star in 1934's The Wise Little Hen who appeared earlier in the film playing the piano:
And at the extreme left bottom side of the frame, I just noticed Chicken Little. The real one.
Other cameos from the film:
There was an alteration to actual movie The Little Mermaid unrelated to that poster, which was changed after the VHS release but before the Laserdisc:
Allegedly, a French HDTV broadcast of the film in the early 2000s was fully uncensored.

There was also something taken out of one of the Shorts. There was one or two frames of Jessica straddling a Log on a wall poster as they are riding down the log flume.
That would not necessarily even be good enough for a Blu-ray, never mind a UHD disc, but it proves that an unaltered film element exists.
I would agree, it's not censorship, it's revision. Much like George Lucas and his Star Wars films, or Spielberg and the E.T. walkie-talkie fiasco.
I don't necessarily like it, or agree with it, but it's not censorship.
And given the content of some PG-rated films of the 80's, I'm not sure it's even necessary.
