SW: The Old Republic Merchandise & Spin-offs Possible

Videogaming247 has posted a few choice quotes made by LucasArts' Tom Nichols suggesting that various types of Star Wars: The Old Republic-related merchandise and game "spin-offs" could happen sometime in the future.
(We are looking forward to working with our partners in LucasFilm, that have worked with us previously on KOTOR in bringing the comic books to life, and action figures, and all kinds of things,) said LucasArts online boss Tom Nichols.

(I think the potential is there for us to have similar types of products and extensions from our licensing partners as well.)

The game itself is undated at the moment, and is likely to be a good way off. So, whether or not those (extensions) could mean actual new KOTOR game spin-offs is far into the murky future as yet.
Could a brand new single player KotOR RPG be a spin-off? Maybe? Please?
