The Michael Mural - differences between now and original?

[MaJic]

I was wondering if there are any documented differences between the original mural and the one printed in the "MICHAEL" booklet. Here are some I found on another forum:

How odd. I have never noticed that before....

I knew that the guy (I think it's Martin Luther King III) was missing from the final mural, but the change of the Captain EO pose is just baffling. I wonder why they changed it... It surely couldn't be for legal reasons...

Yeah, they took out the Prince symbol...

Anyone have i HQ original version of Mural ??

Here is the full mural (edited version is, sadly, the only one I have)... size is 8972x5400, you have been warned.

I think they changed the Capt E.O. pose because in the smaller version one might think Michael's arm was stretching out and holding a huge camera.
Doesn't explain why they changed his head though.

Maybe the EO arm was changed 'cos they coudn't use the robot's/whatever it is' head in it? I mean the changed one covers it...
