Coz a lot of people who work in the film industry are kind of influenced by the producers... i.e. George Lucas. However, the Creature crew can also kinda enthuse their own ideas upon the producers that this should look this way rather than properly studying and understanding the character properly. I can just imagine what the thought processes were on the TPM Yoda as they redesign Yoda...
"Ok he needsta be Younger but I think we can do a better job than Freeborn did in his day so lets put our own stamp on this guy... I mean we got much better materials now for Gods sake! I wonna see a much better more believable Yoda with more movements and great silicone transculent skin! I mean this is 1999 not 1979!!!"
Thats How I imagine the creature shops crew thought about approaching the TPM Yoda but they really ruined the look and it wasn't Yoda at all but a completely different creature altogether!

Not only was the sculpt wrong, but the way it was painted just made it worse. A completely different color - and in some scenes it looked like he had a mustache. Sure... some animals change colors during their life and gets paler with age, but come on... they just messed up. Not that I like the CGI Yoda any better - way too angry looking and a whole other shape and posture to his body.
All the Yodas that has been shown off here are better and more consistent to the OT version.

Yeah, I kinda agree. I'm not sure if the artists involved with creating the new versions for the PT 1)aren't that good, 2)just didn't care to really study the character, 3)wanted to infuse thier own vision or whatever, but they totally didn't get close with either Yoda or Chewbacca, of even Vader. Sure they somewhat resemble that species, but not the iconic characters they were.

Amazing work again, your patience has shown you the way to the light side of the Force.
