I can say this much... I think there are some pretty good things on the horizon - it's been slow lately, and quite frankly, I've enjoyed it.
Last year with ROTS was completely excessive. WAY too many new toys for one year.
This year's been terribly busy as well - until a few weeks ago.
With the Naboo and Endor figures hitting now, Kit Fisto's Starfighter, AT AT, TIE's, Snowspeeder, Dagobah X-Wing, New Battle Packs, and 22 'final' saga figures on shelves between now and the end of the year - it's setting up to be a disgustingly jam packed few months coming up.
And if the rumors for the first three waves of next year's figures are accurate - I think colletors will be just as excited as they've always been by 3 or 4 months from now.
