I have been collecting Star Wars since 1995 and the line started out just like the 25th line (well, the quality sucked, but I digress). Hasbro went through and re-sculpted all Original Trilogy (OT) figures with a few expanded universe figures for 4 YEARS prior to Episode One. Then we saw Episode One figures made in the same fashion as OT figures. As hype from Episode One died down, Hasbro went back to adding OT figures because they needed to keep their hardcore collector base.
I believe the 25th line can coexist with new movie figures; especially if the two are done with the same molds and styling. The kids will eat up all the movie figures and us adults will grab up the classic goodies.
Of course if Hasbro is only churning out re-paints and silly sub-groups (i.e. tiger ninja night force heroes) by the time the movie comes out, then this may all be a moot point.
