Legacy of the Force has introduced a glut of new ships, tech, and characters into the Star Wars universe. However, the people at Del Rey have not decided to make us privy to any images of these new additions, thereby forcing us to rely on the often inadequate in-book descriptions. So what from LotF would you most like to see images of?
For me, it would definitely be the GAG armor. I've never really known what to picture when I read scenes with them, and I typically picture them as simply stormtroopers with black armor.

1. Cal Omas
2. Galactic-class battle carriers
3. Mon Calamari heavy carriers
4. New Alliance fighters (Wookiee starfighters, Eta-5's, etc)
5. Allana
6. Better and more detailed shots of Ben Skywalker
7. Corellian Dreadnaughts
And that is just off the top of my head after a VERY long day at work. Give me a hour to unwind and I could name a dozen more.

I would love to see what the new starfighters, especially the Eta-5, looks like, especially as they're based on Clone Wars designs, so I would like to see how much its evolved since then (or whether how much TIE influence is shown). Or the Galactic-class carriers would be my second choice. I like Mon Calamari ships, but the Galactic-class sounds like something newer. Even if it is, as Leia (or at least I think it was Leia) put it, its mainly an update and renaming of the older Star Destroyer concept, except the GA doesn't want to call it Star Destroyer to avoid sounding like the Empire too much. Or maybe its a step in the direction of a Pellaeon-class Star Destroyer even.
Or the Corellian Dreadnaughts, if those things actually appeared again, but it sounds like the only ones around were destroyed at Hapes, unless they build more. Or the Strident-class Star Defenders for that matter. Star Defenders are supposed to be huge, right?
And the poor Dodonna sounds like its out of action for months at least, unfortunately.

Yeah, the Dodonna took quite a beating. Admiral Limpan switched her flag to the Mon Cal heavy carrier Blue Diver.

I've pictured it as lighter-weight than Stormtrooper armor. Like, flexible-ish Kevlar sort of stuff rather than stiff shells.
That said, characters, characters, characters. Ben pictures that actually show him with red hair. Mara pictures that show her age. Shots of Lumiya in her sixties. Niathal. Shevu. Zekk, Jag, Jaina, and Alema. Kyp with long hair.
A visual encyclopedia would be nice... though I wouldn't say no to a few Tales comics set in the LotF era.

I'm sure we'll see the Mara pic once she starts to act her age, not half it as she, Han, Luke, and Leia do.
I'd like to see the new starfighters and starships... but that being justifiable would have required LOTF including some, instead of reusing the same chassis as movie-era fighters and capships.

Why? There's barely enough of her that's organic to age. And besides, he's a redheaded human female. We all know in SW, they don't age. Plus she's reasonably well-maintained, makes herself up to look young, clearly looks young enough to easily pass for a young Hapan noble, and tends to spend a lot of time with only her eyes showing. No need to age her if you ask me.
I'd like to see an image of the SD-XX (I think) series of droids, that were described as a stripped down version of the YVH's. It'd also be neat to see Allana's guardian droid from Tempest, and perhaps the Temple Practice Droid and the spaceport security droids from Exile.
And Alephs, and Eta-5's, and the Boneyard Rendezvous.

Cal Omas. In fact, I demand that Del Rey bring out The Essential Guide to Cal Omas.

I kind of think of the Rebel Alliance armor from the Rebellion comics.

Cal Omas (even though this has been mentioned a bunch of times already, but seriously, we need a picture.)
The Eta-5's(I keep imagining a sleeker version of the Eta-2, S-foils and all, but I don't think thats right.)

1.Cal Omas
2.Allana
3.Mirta Gev (I honestly expected her to be on the cover of Revelation, but alas...)
4.The Anakin Solo and the Dodonna
5.A better picture of Saba Sebatyne
6.Lumiya. Even if there's nothing left of her to age, it would be nice to get a half-decent picture of her in the Legacy era
7.Cha Niathal
8.Kyle Katarn (Kyle does not approve that there are no pictures of him in the Legacy era)
9.A picture of Ben Skywalker with red hair
10.A picture of Darth Caedus not looking like he went Sith cuz he had his wisdom teeth pulled
11.A picture of Alema Rar that actually depicts her as being crippled and not looking like an Aayla Secura ripoff
12.GAG armour
13.Nelani Dinn
14.Syal and Myri Antilles
15. Stealth X fighters
16. The Dragon Queen
Err, that's all I can think of at the moment. I may come up with more later.
