The problem with the leaks causing pre-orders to be cancelled is that now Lucas will claim that people decided they didn't have to buy them because they pirated them. They're going to ignore the why's and just look at the numbers. They just lost a whole bunch of sales, plain and simple. I don't see this boding well for us.

I can also see this as a potential result. Which is a massive issue if finally people are voting with their wallets and it's blamed on something entirely different.

But while a lot of people with an online presence are saying they're canceling their pre-orders that's still very much the minority when it comes to the potential market for this set, sales I'm sure will still be strong.

And while for a lot of people this is apparently the straw that broke the camels back is Vader's noooooooooo any worse than Ghost Hayden or Greedo shooting? How can you live with one and not the other.

I think if the "apologists" have got their panties in a twist it's because Lucasfilm supposedly promised fixed lightsabers and other improvements and didn't deliver. They wanted a "revisited" type update but all they got was shitty 2004 transfers on a blu-ray disc.
