I take it the live action series is (as of right now) the last Star Wars project he'll ever have a hand in. I hope that means everyone here will finally get what we want in 2009 (or whenever they get around to airing the new show), and even if LFL waits until after that to do the next release, I still hope it has what we want in it.
Here's how I see it: Lucas can either move on from Star Wars and finally make us happy, or he can keep being stubborn and make us move on. The rumors I'm hearing are making me more and more convinced that we will finally get the ultimate set for the next release, and as a result you will see less and less complaining from me.
