Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

Add Crumb to the list of Attakus statues that just don't look like they're worth the money to me, such as Luke, Obi-Wan, Padme, Han, etc. For the money, I'll take Gentle Giant any day. I can't afford Attakus, and don't feel like I'm missing much. GG, on the other hand, will be getting a lot of my $$$ in the near future, and for products that I am really excited about.

Yes, but with the newer releases Attakus improved their quality IMO. But still: Expensive!

I hope GG will make a Jabba someday.

Just got the Attakus Tusken. Now THAT is one you are definitely missing out on. WOW!

But yeah, no kidding the GG Crumb looks better. I am amazed at the face- especially the eyes. Looks great. GG has a ton of good stuff coming.

I think the only way that GG will be able to do artoo, is as a statue.

They should make him with an additional base so you can attach it to the threepio statue

Wow, I completely disagree. The GG Crumb looks horrible, IMO. The eyes are way too small. I don't own either, but the Attakus is much more faithful to the original puppet:





The GG one is awful.

Of course,Attakus version is better than GG version,it's more details,i think a lot of people didn't own the attakus statues and never see it personally,if you see it personally,you know waht i means...

wow, El, that's a great comparison shot. I might have to recant my statement about GG's.
Nice.
