I guess the same reason the Yoda puppet in Phantom Menace looks as weird as it does--trying to "improve" the same design with new technology. The results are just weird-looking.

I think those were the ESB ones.
That's right, I remember now. My mistake. So, why was the make-up job so bad? The original prosthetic pieces for the Emperor's make-up in ROTJ were up for sale on eBay a while back- maybe GL should have bought them!

Yeah, I kept thinking, are they trying to make Yoda look younger? There's about 30 years between TPM and ESB, right? In a life span of 900 years, 30 years is about the equivalent of several months (or a few years?) in a human life span, so theoretically Yoda should have looked EXACTLY the same in TPM as he did in ESB.
