Ok, so we literally have a whole galaxy to choose from, but here are a few thoughts from me to get the ball rolling... Welcome everyone's suggestions.
Yoda and Ki Adi Mundi - these two are just sorely missing.
Wedge, Crix Madine, Garindan, Major Panno, Nien Nunb, Capt. Panaka, General Grievous - there are so many characters that could be brought in. Grievous is a must, but we could also have species along the same lines as the generic Jawa... Defel, Shistavanen, Gammorean, are just a few examples of some really good ones
Bossk, Dengar, 4-LOM and Zuckuss - how cool would it be with an ally's help to play the original Bounty Hunters!
Even Piell, Oppo Rancisis, Yarael Poof, Yaddle, Depa Billaba, etc - so I know there are already a plethora of Jedi, but this is Star Wars.
Aurra Sing, Dr. Evazan, Ponda Baba, Klaatu, Nikto, Barada - ok, so I added the last three to doft my cap to a Sci-fi classic, but wouldn't Sing be brilliant?
Vuffi Raa, Grand Admiral Thrawn, Rukh - let's not leave out the novels completely. I loved Lando's sidekick, and Noghris were bad ****.
Kybo Ren, Mungo Baobab, Jann Tosh - ok, it's maybe lower down the priority list, but I liked Baobab, and Ren was a funny bad guy... No worse than some of the stuff in Rebels!
Kyle Katarn, T3-M4, Dark Trooper, Tyber Zann - I love HK47, so here are some other old game characters that could be considered. Perhaps T3-M4 could have a repair ability for droids similar to that of healer. (Personally I'm not a fan of the healers in the game... Repairing a droid is a bit more realistic, so if I had my way I'd lose healers and introduce repair to balance out droids a bit more).
And lastly, as a gift to everyone, I'd like to see a community challenge where we could all get to pummel a team comprising of Jar Jar, Teek, Ziro, Princess Kneesa, and last but not least... Ackmena.

Wampa - stuns Luke Skywalker 100% of the time with his swipe ability, a must have in GW vs. Luke teams.
Yoda - leader ability removes all Jedi-specific enemy buffs. Can be bought in the store for $50 as part of a Dagobah pack that gives you a four star Yoda and two star swamp monster and some shards/credits. Then his ability will be nerfed down to like 30% reduction of Jedi-specific enemy buffs once sales start to fall off big.
Tonge attack- deal physical damage with 99% chance to attack again
Accidental bomb- deal special damage to all oppenents and double damage to droids
Gungan general (leader)- Jar Jar gives all allies 200% health and each ally gains 10% heath when they attack
Strange noises- each time an enemy attacks jar jar, they gain all negative status effects
+1 This is my biggest concern when regular Han and Jedi Luke come out. I have luke sitting at 3 stars and i dont want to upgrade him as what is the point...better damage dealers are gonna come out and theres no way ill use luke with a rifle over luke with a sabre.
I cant believe the price of some of the pack offers too...40 quid for barriss ahsoka etc, that is a joke and it looks like the best one. I got barriss in a bronzium too
000 and csn remember c3p0 counterpart.. 000 would be nice.. r2d2 packing a whallop..
I would also love Yoda, Grievous, Hondo, Rex, Pre Vizla, Shak'ti, Dark Revan
Well I think we should stick with the Canon characters for now...a lot of the ones you mentioned are from Legends, and what most people want to see is well-known characters (Films, Clone Wars and maybe Rebels)
Since they used HK-47 then we have to assume the games are fair play so include any old republic character like Darth Nihilus, Darth Sion, or my favorite Bastian Shan Light/Dark
Attack: Coarseness - +50% damage to Anakin and Vader
Passive: Gets Everywhere
Yeah... I said it.
But if this game wants to succeed them it needs to appeal to as wide an audience as possible. That means older players too (who are probably more likely to shell out disposable income and therefore make the whole thing more profitable) and that might mean introducing more characters that once were canon, but are now legends. There's nothing wrong with legends. Sure, there's been trash in the past (Just to be clear, my last paragraph in the initial post was tongue in cheek, although 37 years on and I'm still scarred by Bea Arthur!) but there are some excellent characters too... Don't disregard Legends just because some characters have been demoted now.
R2-D2
Snaggletooth
Jango Fett
More bounty hunters from Empire Strikes Back
Jabba the Hut
Young Obi Wan
In order of preference
- Quinlan Vos, my second fave jedi after Kit Fisto
- Yoda
- General Grievous
- Tyvokka, the Jedi Wookkie.
- Jango Fett
- Nien Nunb
- Tarfful (badass w. his dreads)
- Elder Merumeru (yes, dreads and yes, wookies)
- Episode III Padme Amidala (the skimpy white outfit w. gun)
- Captain Typho
- Wicket the Ewok
As for skins/versions, all the logical ones:
- Emperor Palpetine (w. the Empire affiliation dammit!)
- Jedi Luke
- Old man Luke
- Basic Scoundrel Han Solo
- Old man Solo
- Young Ben Kenobi
- a Rey with a double bladed lightsaber. But that probably won't happen until episode VIII ;-)

Could bring in others like wampa, reek, dianoga, gundark... Even the sarlaac!
I would LOVE to see General Grievous with all four lightsabers.
I would also like to see Luke with a lightsaber, Padme, Han outside trooper, Aura Sing, Young Obi-Wan, Darth Plagueis, Jar-Jar binks and many more!
