WotC: SW Miniatures and RPG will be discontinued

After the next set Wizards won't renew the SW licence with Lucasfilm.

I collect SW miniatures, and it's a shame, it is a fun board game, and the miniatures are way cheaper than the 3,75' figures (not to mention since they are smaller they are easier to store)

I haven't gotten most of the recent figures since my local game store went out of business. I loved trying to collect the thousands of Darth Vader figures they made and the game itself was great. Stinks that it's coming to an end...

did they ever update the RPG from D20 rules to "4th edition"? Tried it a time or 2. wasn't bad, but I'm still a DnD 3.5 guy myself. Shame about hte mini's tho

I believe I bought a booster set once. I'm sure there's always ways to play the game even if it's discontinued.. but yes, still disappointing news.
