Personally I really liked it. Anything in that universe I'll like, but the closer things are to the OT time frame the more I like it.
Nothing can be done to star wars that will change my view. My memories are of 1977-85 and nothing after that period can alter it.
That said, i think in terms of collecting it's always.good to other another focus, either with the main one or a complete sideline. For me it was britains space toys....followed by late 70's/early 80's space lego.
It's enjoyable starting something new, learning new things and getting involved in an area that's not so muddied by cons/scandals/greed and hype! Hard to believe I'm talking about toy collecting!
