March 1995
The Lion King was released on home video for the first time as part of the Masterpiece Collection. Although the tape is advertised in the 1995 update of the Masterpiece Collection trailer, and has the logo on its cover artwork, the logo doesn't appear at all on the tape itself - not on the tape label, nor on-screen.
Also released this month were reissues of the original batch of Masterpiece Collection titles with updated tape masters. These masters use the Flashbang bumpers and include an updated video trailer for the Masterpiece Collection with footage from The Lion King, followed by video trailers for The Brave Little Toaster and the Family Film Collection.

Along with the video debut of Pocahontas, the initial batch of Masterpiece Collection titles is reissued again. Bedknobs and Broomsticks, The Three Caballeros, and So Dear to My Heart never received updated masters following this wave.
Curiously, this batch of reissues features the bass-heavy rendition of the Walt Disney Classics theme playing over the Masterpiece Collection logo. They otherwise open with an updated trailer for the Masterpiece Collection featuring footage from Cinderella, a trailer for the Family Film Collection, and a trailer for the then-upcoming release of Aladdin and the King of Thieves.

Further streamlining their opening trailers, Disney introduces the "Timeless Classics" trailer template to advertise all their upcoming high-profile releases in a single trailer.
