Does anyone ever remember Ewoks: the Animated Series? It was aimed at 5-year-olds too. Remember Yoda Stories, the video game for pre-schoolers starring Yoda? How about the some of the toylines out there like Galactic Heroes? I don't know why everyone explodes about "selling out" now, Lucasfilm was partly built on this sort of thing. 5-year-olds are an important demographic to the Star Wars franchise, just like 25-year-olds; the stuff targetted at each group is really no different in principle. The former has Yoda Stories and Squishies, the latter has Knights of the Old Republic and the Live-Action series. They are both about making money and both about making a quality product that appeals to each. Internet nerds never see the big picture.
