I've noticed a lot of Nemo merchendise lately with graphics that are different from that of the movie (http://disney.store.go.com/DSSectionPage.process?Merchant_Id=2&Section_Id=14471&Product_Id=165575)...in a big way. I was wondering what the reason for this might be...I know they sometimes change animation for merchendise, but this time it seems odd to me. Any thoughts?

That is strange. They made it look even more cartoony and exagerated the features.

Two guesses: the computer-generated look of the characters didn't look good when translated to a silk screen or applique, or they're going for a "stylized" look with this particular item, but other Nemo merchandise will look more like the movie.
