Going out on a limb here, but I think we're getting an announcement at Gencon about the app, and I think a blister wave is coming with it. Let's say, release in December.

Just to put something on the board, I want to say this blister wave is going to be a big one- 2 packs for each faction, and I think they're going to be packs that people will really want.

Guesses based on sort of a mix of more objective popularity from the recent poll and my own subjective opinion on what would fit in and be needed with this game.

Rebels:

Yoda

Rex

Merc:

4-LOM and Zuckuss

Skiff

Imperials:

(I don't think we'll get Mara Jade, being as she's Force User- which we're getting a lot of soon anyway- and Legends canon)

Thrawn

Death Trooper squad

I love everything you said. Personally I don't care for Yoda (and I think that would be even weirder thematically than Old Ben). And I love the idea of Desthtroopers coming, but I can't imagine they would come in a wave without any other Rogue 1 content. I think Thrawn, 4-LOM & Zuckuss, Rex are a big probability.

Good point. But I'd also be surprised if we don't get some rogue one stuff soon and HotE period fits so well. Maybe the whole next wave will be R1?

I would love a R1 Big box expansion with shoretroopers, deathtroopers that synergized with Director Krennic. Jeddha and Scarif missions. "New" imperial tank. Scarif rebel troopers,'whatever race Bistan is, Jyn Erso.

Chirrut & Baze ally packs, Cassian & K2 ally Pack, Tarkin villain Pack.

the problem is that the timing of opportunity is way over, especially with Episode 8 on the horizon.

I think the app is inevitable at this point due to their re-staggering of the boxed expansion release dates, Christmas is wide open. I also believe that a blister wave will accompany it for Q4, something following the Rebels releases we've seen so far, but I also wouldn't be surprised to see Yoda, the last real big name left from the OT?
