Typically we get 4 waves a year for WFC/Generations that are released seasonally, so Wave 1 hits around December-January, Wave 2 hits around March-April, Wave 3 hits around July-August, and Wave 4 around October-November. The combination of Siege getting a 5th Wave of stuff brought forwards from Earthrise and Covid hitting has kinda screwed up this year's release schedule though, as the Wave 2 Deluxes for Earthrise are basically only just now showing up.

By the way, is there similar info / leaks for the WFC: Earthrise toyline somewhere in these threads?
Any and all leaks that do get posted on here would be in the respective discussion thread for the line, so you'd want the Earthrise Discussion Thread for ER leaks. Everything that's currently leaked for ER is exclusives, and there aren't too many, so to save you some time:
-Thrust from the Seeker mold (listing found in Target systems, leaked pic of mistransformed production sample a while ago)
-Runabout from Runamuck's mold (listing found in Target systems, someone reviewed him a week ago)
-Bluestreak from the Smokescreen mold (confirmed via eBay listing, some online stores shipping him already despite lack of a reveal from Hasbro)
-Glyph, Tap-Out, and a white Ironworks repaint are rumored to be in the Galactic Odyssey sets, but this was just word-of-mouth from a credible leaker rather than any listings or anything
-There is also at least one more exclusive for Earthrise we are unaware of that fills the E28 slot in the numbering system, no clue yet what it is
And for the Kingdom stuff, check around pages 24-25 of the Kingdom Discussion Thread, there should be a graphic that lists everything we know about except for the names of Paleotrex and Vertebreak (they are accounted for on the list, just unnamed) and the rumored identities of the Commander and Titan (Rodimus Prime and the Ark, respectively).
