Why is CRUMB a "bust" ?
I noticed the Salacious Crumb statue is often called "bust".
Why ? He is in fact a statue 
BTW: Just got him last week. Awesome little critter with funny light-up option!

I consider him a bust because (a) of the base design and (b) Gentle Giant does.

Yes but technically it's not a bust.
From WIKIPEDIA:
"A bust is a sculpture depicting a person's chest, shoulders, and head, usually supported by a stand."

I agree its a statue... but then so are most bust from companies in our days... They are half statues with arms and weapons, etc....

because if you did a bust of crumb, you would have hardly nothing to display, seeing as they are keeping this in scale with the other busts

This thread reminds me...
I'm still trying to figure out how they are going to do an R2-D2 bust without it looking retarded.

A conclusion is simply the place where you got tired of thinking.

I don't think technically any of the ones with arms are busts in a true sense then! But I have to agree - He's a statue all the way (and a LOT less then the Attakus piece!)

GG Crumb looks way better than Attakus's version.
