So while removing all the cardboard stuff from my cases in preparation I noticed a few things.
All my cool little boxes I hand made to store the ship tokens in are now obsolete since the pilots that come with the ships are different. Not that big a problem for me since I ended up not really liking them for actual ease of use.
My Rebel and Imperial storage containers are much more open now that there is no first order or resistance in them. Of course I'll need new containers for them.
I have no idea where the binder of cards went? It is just gone. I have the Legion binder and the Armada cards are all in a card box. But no X-Wing.
If you built the same microhanger / gear box thing I did, note that the new dials are wider than the 1.0 ones, so you really can't use the gearboxes anyways.

I could still use the little ship hangers but the ships were never the storage issue so eh.

Honestly I use binders. Yeah, there's a lot of flipping, but because of the size of the upgrade cards it was generally easy to have an entire ship type or upgrade type on 1-2 sheets. This will obviously change with the new version.

My X-Wing cards are in a binder.
My Armada cards are in one of those sirwillis boxes. It works for Armada because there are not as many cards. With X-Wing I have so many it is easier to look at them in binder pages.
However I almost never use my cards since I play entirely casual with one other person and we have just used printed out list from an online builder.

I have to go into that box and pull out the bombs, shields, and evades since those are not included in the conversion kits and there aren't enough of the new ones in the core.
My son wants to buy his own X-Wing ships. I told him he may have to wait a while as they're rebooting everything and the ships he wants may not be out for a while...
Miniature Market has a bunch in stock still. If you’re looking for a few in particular I’d be happy to scope out a few FLGS in Raleigh and Fed Ex ‘em to you.
But he's looking at first order stuff like the special forces tie which isn't in any of the 2.0 conversion kits, right? Because now it's a separate faction?
So if I get more 1.0 stuff now, I'll need additional conversion kits instead of just waiting for the 2.0 release.
Ah gotcha. Yeah I think that's the case. If I had to take a shot in the dark my assumption would be a new core set and wave next year in either May or September to coincide with marketing for Episode IX.
Finally got to play again tonight. Had the most frustrating dice, but in the end they came through.
Rolled 10 dice over 3 attacks one turn, needed 1 hit to kill. No hits.
Next turn rolled 9 dice over 3 attacks, same ship, no hits.
Many, many turns later, rolled hits on every die that turn (7 I think over 3 attacks at range three) and did 3 damage to kill one and 1 damage to kill the last ship.
I think I had better performance hitting at range 3 than range 1 that game.

My order shipped yesterday. It will arrive tomorrow!
OK. I'm quasi-panicking right now because I'm not sure how I'm going to store my new cards...
I plan on at least sleeving the damage deck and just keeping it in my plano, but not sure what to do with my pilot and upgrade cards.

I'm just using my binder pages for upgrade cards then pulling them out when needed. I probably won't individually sleeve them but I will the damage deck as that gets used way more.
I think all the cards are now the standard american. No mini ones. So whatever the 1.0 pilot cards were.

Binders don’t seem the way to go here, too much flipping

ED: Showed foamboard version, which is what I use.
ED2: Of course, with the new upgrade card sizes, that'll have to change.

Stacked in one row of the plano boxes I have for everything.
Come 2.0 I'm just going to use standard card boxes.

The cards are part of me, and I am part of the cards.
We will never be separated.
I'm one with the cards, the cards are with me.

Just print it out, make a new cake, consume the new cake.
It works out in the end.
I hate you all and hope you all throw blank dice.
That gets you the new rules. You still need to get rid of the old ones.
The ones that are ... part ... of you.

I would gladly "recycle" anyone's 1.0 stuff...
I assume by eating them like see317?
may have uh
just preordered the 3 conversion kits
and a fang fighter
and Lando's Falcon

I think all of the cards are now the FFG grey size. (Damage decks are still yellow, I think.)
My preorder doesn't ship until tomorrow.

I am still at work for a couple hours though...
I also ordered 400 hyper matte sleeves. May just use deck boxes for now. No news on my conversion kits yet, but I don't mind waiting a little bit.
