I don't know about you guys but as a kid, I always related and looked up to the more serious and cool characters and that's what serves as role models and inspirations for kids to aspire to and to play as. Kids played as Han Solo and Luke Skywalker...not Ewoks.
I don't know why so many creative people get bogged down with the absurd notion that you need to have a joke character for kids to like. That's the biggest flaw of George Lucas' logic in creating Jar Jar.

I hate Ewoks for this reason.
Yoda already set the record straight that the size of the warrior doesn't matter. The Ewok thing was cheesy to me.
