Screw the bad economy and rising prices! We want our Star Wars stuff!
2010 was the best non-movie year ever for Star Wars sales and the best since ROTS came out:

Ya think Clone Wars might have something to do with it? No wonder they'll keep that show on the air 100 years if they can help it, heh heh.
I think it bears noting that the toy line is one the few around that consistently includes stuff from all of the movies and Clone Wars. And while I'm sure Her Universe is a relatively small drop in the bucket, it's a drop that wasn't there before.
