There's a whole thread about that - we discussed some interesting ideas. I'm hoping for a generic In4 Royal Guard pilot, akin to a TIE/v1 Inquisitor. I won't be disappointed when I don't get exactly what I want, but I'd be disappointed if we don't get a new Squint with Wave 2.
I was wondering if they also release a new core set? Is there any product number missing that would indicate this?

There's one missing SKU, adjacent to the Mining TIE and RZ-2 (so, a new FO ship would make the most sense).
I'm kinda skeptical that they'll do more core sets (sequels/prequels) rather than just make people buy the existing one, but I don't have any special insight

The closest thing to insight I can give is that we've been shown an Anakin-painted Jedi Starfighter. That seems a bit unusual on its own, but there's also this image from the launch party page depicting artwork of a normal one:
Of course, card artwork doesn't have to match the miniature (that isn't how the Resistance A-Wing is going to be painted), but based on precedent with other similar paint jobs, I feel like there's a good chance the Anakin version will be a special release of some kind (of course, that doesn't guarantee any sort of core set or starter set).
I'm really looking forward to hearing about upcoming waves.

Resistance for me. Can't wait for Poe. Small faction so less ships to be distracted by meaning I might actually stick with a list. And an overwhelming psychological advantage as my opponent recalls the 'Leia in space' scene from The Last Jedi and tilts before the game has even started! 
looking forward to First Order goodness, new Silencer sculpts and, hopefully, the return of Quickdraw!

Honestly it might be a playmat. Not sure it’s going to be another ship because the first order and Resistance will be balanced at this point.

don't playmats have a different part number format?

Does this mean that you never used Poe much and have been doing fine without him?

My local has a tentative date of November 29, with the release event being December 2. Obviously nobody is entirely sure, yet, and until it's listed as "on the boat", nobody will be.

Factions would remain balanced with a new silincer mold thats more scale. It was hinted at the hypwrspace rwport when 2.0 was intially talked about in may.

They do its a sws code.
I personally really like the handling of the fo ships, especially the /fo and /sf.
That said, I just do not enjoy flying them as much as my imperials, despite their fun dials and chassis. I just cant shake it that IN MY PERSONAL OPINION the new trilogy and especially ep 8 is utter crap.
It's a little to late to say Happy Friday (It's Saturday), but I'll say it anyway. I will pick up both Conversion kits, but I heavily favor First Order. One of my mainline lists I played consisted of Quickdraw and Backdraft, With either Omega Leader or The Inquisitor. Fun times there.
I'm most hopeful and excited about Wave 2 Rebel and Empire ships. I'm hoping we get a B-Wing, A-Wing, TIE Interceptor and TIE Bomber re-release.

Uh, those would be Wave 3 earliest. Wave 2 is FO and Resistance Conversion Kits, T-70, RZ-2, TIE/fo, and TIE/mg. I'd imagine they would've revealed others if there were any by now.

I have high hopes that Leia will be released as a Resistance ship soon.
I’ll be dumping FO and resistance to someone who will enjoy them a whole more than I will. Sadly they were always an upgrade faction, other than a couple games with stridian and QuickDraw. Resistance I had more experimentation with Poe/Rey, and I’ll miss it in 2.0, but I’m more excited to get pure rebels and empire back on the table.
Thankfully the extra space will allow me more space for republic when the time comes.
