It makes sense on some parts, not on others. It would fit in well with the
Technic Angle Connectors, not so well with the minifig drill.
Speaking of the drill, something should be done with the minifig hand,
which has an incorrect angle at the wrist. Just to make things more
complicated.

It's not worth messing up the Technic to get the three characters.

Due to safety concerns, please be sure the drill is unplugged before
mounting.
