Certainly tilted! Look at the bottom of the feet and then the tips of the ears. The angles are pretty opposite and it's awesome.
Yeah, that eyepatch fellow with the stripey shirt would be a great follow-up. These are really nice, agree on the perfect rendering. While B&W might be more 'authentic' it certainly wouldn't be as fun, and I think this is more reflective of the actual character designs/how they would have been interpreted beyond the limitations. Anyone know of international options for these sets?
