What's the bouncy blue thing? Some kind of egg?

Yeah it's supposed to be the Blue Eggs in the game. They bounce around.

Maybe I made them too bouncy?

The honeycombs' width shouldn't remain constant during all frames of the rotation. During the 45-degree angle part of the turn, the width should appear thinner.

Applied your suggestion, Troller. What does everyone think? Also I tried a darker shade inside the Extra Honeycomb, what looks better? The lighter or the darker shade?

Actually that make the Honeycomb look too thin. If you remember in the games the Honeycombes are rather fat.

I wasn't saying to thin out the middle frame where you just see the side. It's a perspective thing-- certain faces of an object look like they're getting bigger or smaller while they're rotating. Since the first frame is a full-frontal view, it has to appear that the sides are getting larger as it rotates to the side-view frame. I'm not good at explaining this stuff, so just look it up or something.

For example, a coin. That logic should also apply to the honeycombs as well.

I prefer the lighter shade.

That work for something that is much thinner at it's side than the front. However because the Honeycomb is very thick on it's side it stays at a similar width at an angle. Don't believe me?

Rough attempt at Mumbo

I'm pretty rusty

Yeah I tried Mumbo too. He's actually quite difficult. Keep trying, and maybe someone can help you.

As for me I'm going to try out Tooty.

Messed around a little.

The problem with Mumbo is that his head/skull mask is not big enough. It needs to be bigger compared to his body.

I did a bottles sprite years ago. You can use it as a reference, edit it or w/e.
