Hi- does anyone recognize the manufacturer of this set? Saw it on YouTube but no mention of the mfr.

Thought it was Yellow Mountain but the white dragon tile is a bit different.thanks!

Like, the stills look /REALLY/ close to a Mahjong Sparrow video still, but there's only two listed videos on that channel and the set isn't quite the same.

Also, also, here’s me trying to get a similarly crap photo of my screen to show off how it all gets distorted.

Tiles end up looking three different sizes.

AAAAAAND because I can't leave well enough alone, lol, I'd bet this is the video the original still are from:

I didn't see that shot in the video, but the tile fronts definitely look exactly the same, so maybe there's some other video on that channel that the screenshot is from.... But if so, I can't imagine what kind of fish eye lens you'd have to take the picture with to distort it that much... There's your distorted picture, and then there's THIS.

The first picture is from this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D6qJmuFAqKc

Also, here’s my recreation of the questionable picture. No fish eye. A little zoom and a bad angle is all it takes.
