But why now? Surely in anticipation for TFA. But are they really going to squeeze more milk from the TFA teat in a few months? If they were going to re-release the old masters before the "new" ones came out, wouldn't they have done it a year or two ago so as to not oversaturate the market with too many re-releases in a short amount of time?

Of course there's always the chance that they're saving the next re-release for 2017 (the release of EpVIII and the 40th anniversary), but I do feel like this is the big push year for the franchise.

Well, no matter how this shakes down, at least we have your edits to help us cope.
