Isn't the King's beard black and grey? It's hard to describe, but there's a
definite two-tone aspect to it. The upper part (above the jaws, I guess) is
gray (maybe white), with black vertical lines (not parallel, more like rays
projecting from a common center somewhere). The lower part (I'm trying to
remember) is black, or maybe it's better described as a heavy shadow.

Nope. No mix-up on the part of the photographers. The 6091 set box has close
ups of both the princess and the female knight. Two different faces. It will
be interesting to create explanations for the presence of the knight-ess. :)
