In some respects the argument DOES stand up IMO, the Star Wars trilogy has been THE MOST anticipated release, topping many request lists for some time now........

However is Lucasfilms announcement that the OT-SE is coming to DVD a pampering to the fans or a splendidly clever marketing ploy to raise awareness of Star Wars in light of the impending release of Ep3?

I personally think this is the case.......What better way to introduce NEW FANS to Star Wars (is there anyone left that hasn't seen them?) than to release the OT, Hasbro are currently producing loads of OT style figures, as well as rereleasing a whole load of figures (supposedly to cater for this new market of fans), personally I think it's all a HUGE scam to once again part us with our hard earned pennies. I know many collectors WILL buy all these so-called new figures, just because they'll have nice new cards! Suckers

I'll buy the dvd's (god sometimes I hate myself) & yes IF there is an Ultimate version I shall buy them too, but i draw the line at buying Star wars figures just because they've got a different card
