As such, I do not think that this Minifig belongs in "Star Wars Other". That is where you would be correct. My criteria does differ. The "Other" categories on BrickLink are to be used for anything that doesn't fit any of the other current structure or classifications. That works in many cases, but for Star Wars (and other heavily-serialised themes like Marvel and Ninjago), there are already so many different Categories (with more inevitably to be created) that, in the words of Bo-Katan, “What’s one more?”.
