I've watched that special for years...and there's a couple of other things that I noticed/read about that I didn't realize:
1. What's wrong with the doll on the Island of Misfit Toys? We're never told. We're told the elephant is a "misfit" because it has spots, the Jack-in-the-Box is named Charlie, etc. But we're never told why the doll is there. Unless the doll is solely there because it's "unloved", and not really a misfit. And wouldn't some of the toys end up back on the island? So wouldn't Santa have to go there every year for the new arrivals?
2. At the very end, during the "Rudolph" song, when the elf is giving umbrellas to all the toys, he doesn't give one to the "bird that can't fly". So what happens to the bird?
3. Hermey has "human" ears, and his hair is the only hair that can be seen under the elf hat, I believe.
4. During the end credits and "Rudolph" song, there aren't enough reindeer on the sleigh. There should be nine, and there are only seven.
