But by your definition, JarJar IS a minifig:
"I agree it's gray. but to me a minifig has to have the torso capable of
accepting legs (per the def'n posted), minifig hands, and a minifig
head. "
The fact that he doesn't come with a standard minifig head doesn't change the fact
that his torso can take one. Pop a smiley on him, and he is 100% minifig.
