That's fair enough. To be fair they said it was a new scan. That doesnt mean they had to have started it like 3 months before they said that. It could've been in the works for a while.
That being said, it doesnt mean the wowow colors are correct. What if they went for colors that were closer to other home media before they decided that no, they were going to make it more like the original release this time.
edit: when I say "correct" I mean, at least close to the original coloring. Since prints would've differed based on a number of circumstances, there will never be one 100% solid "correct" color timing.
