Are wave 1 & 2 ships still available for retailers to order? If not when will they be re-released?
Re-release of Wave 1 & Wave 2 ships
Wave 2 should still be available (not easy to find due to X-Wing popularity, but some are still around).
Wave 1 reprints should be done in May.
You can check the progress of FFG reprints etc. here:

Filter for miniatures and you'll see that the Wave 1 expansions are still being printed. Once they're on the boat they're approx. 4-6 weeks away from retail stores. Given that my FLGS was expecting the Wave 1 restock in May, and that the Wave 1 is not listed as being on the boat yet, either someone's not updated the site or the Wave 1 restock is going to be late!
The core set, Awing and TIE Interceptor expansions were all recently restocked, I don't think that there's been a shortage of the larger ships as yet.
Most everyopne is out of stock on Tie Advanced, Tie Interceptor and Y-Wing. The place I goto still has a goodly number of Millenium Falcon, Slave I, A-Wing and Core sets available.
CoolStuffInc.com and SciFi Genre.com are also good places to shop, still cheaper than retail, but their prices are starting to work their way up based on the demand.
…
I did not start collecting until April 10th, so far I've come up with two Core sets, one Millinium Falcon, one Slave I and three of each of the Y-Wing, A-Wing, TIE Advanced and TIE Interceptor. Might go grab a second set of the Falcon and Slave I mini's just to do the repaints.
Thanks to LordCole for his links…but I just can't find TIE Interceptors ANYWHERE. Anyone have any other suggestions?

The Interceptor and A-Wing that I ordered from Amazon on Friday are out for delivery now and should be at my house when I get home.
I prefer to patronize my local game shops but obviously none of them had any.
I just saw that Miniatures Market seems to have them back in stock.
I got my Interceptor and A-Wing today and Amazon still seems to have them in stock.
If you can't find them at your local store, it seems like a no-brainer.
I could see FFG releasing waves 1 and 2 again with new pilot cards. I would pick up another one of each expansion just for that. You can never have enough x-wings.
whats the difference between a reprint and a update?
the core, and wave 2 are being updated?
