Plain old sci-fi generic civilian vehicles with some modular sections with maybe a more 40k esthetic.
http://daemonscape.com/contents/en-uk/d5.html is pretty close.
https://www.zombiesmith.com/products/a7d12-rides these are more streamlined but make a good base to convert and add detail.
Anyway, there is a whole thread on it here: https://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/blog/391316.page
Kinda like the Maelstrom's Edge's terrain sprue, something for civilian vehicles would be nice.
<edit>Ha! Stevefamine ninja'ed me... that is what I get for leaving a post half done.

Also, FFG are doing official Clone Wars models for Legion starting sometime next year(hopefully late next year TBH, they have a lot of GCW stuff I'd prefer they do first).

I want this only in pretty multipart plastic. I would honestly build two enormous armies of clones and droids if someone got round to doing that! I never understood why FFG only focuses on the Galactic Civil War when the Clone Wars are such a more interesting time with so many more options for expansions, nostalgia for the OT can only produce a set amount of models...
Another thing I would like to see which was already mentioned is a good set to make some nice generic robots at a human scale. A kit with as much variety as possible in heads and torsos etc would be really cool.

I think there's about a half dozen companies doing Squats now, including GW if you count the Sky Dwarf Ayr Pyrtes.
Vanguard even has a growing epic squat faction.

I'd love to see more from Anvil with regards to their Unity Council C-48 Wardens.
In general I think I'd like some decent, larger scale, mechs. Something that I could see being used in the near future or something.

Proper necron vehicles, that don't have gaping weak points and follow more a masonry design philosophy rather than a flimsy boat philosophy.
Something like, idk, a mini aeonic orb, that's a floating sphere with a cannon that's powered by the captive miniature sun that powers the war machine.

More non-humanoid robots. With multiple arms/legs even. More robots in general. Robot dragons, bees, owls, pheasants, etc.
(edit: just found these, not bad for the cost.)
Flying cars.
Boats, submarines. With tesla coils.
Gyrocopters.

A common misconception, based on the false assumption that GCW= OT films only. Factor in the anthology films, cartoons, comics, novels, and videogames(all nuCanon) and there are enough GCW releases to keep FFG going for years if they wanted. Also, despite featuring more mass battles within their runtime than the OT, did the PT really provide loads more units? Vehicles, sure, but in terms of infantry I'd argue not actually - most of the visually distinctive Republic units are just Clone Troopers in variant armour rather than actual specialist units you could give a different profile to. Just like with the GCW, you have to dip into the secondary material to really flesh out both factions.
And FFG chose to start with GCW because, despite everything, OT is still best T as far as a decent majority of fans are concerned. Some of us will happily buy CW content when it comes, but it wasn't hapless droids and store-brand fascism-free Stormtrooper substitutes that got me into Star Wars and made me love the setting, it was plucky Rebels battling the evil Empire.
