Wondering what to use them on. I could go straight for Gungans, though I lack good mods for them, or should I use them for GL prerequisites?
Your SWGOH.gg would help us help you.
Meanwhile for me the question would be how much more quickly would you get a GL?
Because you said below you need more defensive teams, and Gungans work well there (also they're excellent in Territory Battle/RotE if you pick the right battles - you prob don't need more teams for that generally, but having an extra squad can make you more useful to your guild since you're able to donate more toons without sacrificing combat mission points), the crux of the issue is whether you could cut the time to a GL by 2 months or more.
If you could, the boosting the GL farm is probably better. If not, I would likely go Gungans for immediate impact based on what (little) I know.
Keeping in mind HarvestMouse's wise comments on mods not belonging to characters, but to you. You probably have lots of "good potential" mods that haven't been sliced up sitting on low-value toons.
Most of those will not pan out, but a 5-dot +10 speed Blue speed set mod can also hit +18-22 speed without too much investment (say to 6-dot green, AKA 6-D), allowing you to steal it for someone more valuable, returning something just as good, but with less potential (say, a 5-dot +10 speed Gold mod that has 2 fewer chances to hit speed).
I don't know what your resources look like, but I have tons of mats for taking up 5-dot mods now that slicing mats are available with raid currency.
Not only that, but Gungans get their bonus turns, so speed isn't even that important to them. Health is arguably their best stat, with Potency and Offense also playing good roles depending on the toon. Since we get force fed health mods, it's likely you can cobble together a good set.
I'd help more if I had your *.gg and if I knew what GL you were thinking about and could compare that to how far along you would be.

I’m in a pretty good place, farming MHF reqs, and thinking about Leia or Jabba because of they’ve aged well and need strong teams to beat
Yeah, they both have aged well. Very true. I do trust you to make good decisions, but since you asked I'll take a look at your account this evening and see if I see anything particularly useful.
Okay, I have a strong suggestion, but as always the game is about fun, and the thing that brings your roster the most power is not the same as the thing that is right for you. So, I'll go ahead and advocate, but I have no dog in this fight. If you want to do something different, go for it.
I'm going to suggest that you use two of the LSTs on Finishing up your Baylan reqs. Your Shin Hati and Marrok are a long way off. I'm not 100% sure, but I think they're both eligible for LSTs.
You need r7 and only have r5 Great Mothers, but they're worth it. And you'll need to give Shin and Marrok one relic each after the LST, but again, totally worth it.
Baylon Skoll is a better defensive team AND a better offensive team than Gungans and uses only 2 LSTs + 4 total relic tiers after that.
Then you're down to 3 LSTs, and I am less high on this one, but IG-12 & Grogu + Beskar Mando gets you really, really close to Bo-Katan (Mandalore) unlock.
You need r7 on 4 toons --- Paz, and Kelleran Beq you have at r4, so it's a bit of a waste to use a token on taking them to r7, but that's just 3 relic tiers each, the 2 LSTs, and then one relic tier each on IG-12&Grogu and Beskar Mando.
Getting Baylan Mercs + Bo-Katan Mandos up and running is going to be huge for you, much, much bigger than just Gungans.
Then you have one left. You could hold it, but you already have a great Ventress (Dark Disciple). She transforms Dad Bod Boba from worthless to solid. Not great, but solid. But to really make that team work, you need Fennec.
I'm pretty sure you can't use the LST on Old Boba, but you can on Fennec.
So!
If it were my roster, I'd go for Baylan first with
then I would be investing in the final relic tiers on GMs, Shin, & Marrok. That won't take long, so you can pretty much right away do
3. Beskar Mando
4. IG-12 & Grogu
To get Bo Katan Mandalore it will take a total of 8 relic tiers, but that's not that much.
Then, lastly, you hold on to #5 just in case something else comes up, but if nothing does, then after you relic Baylan and BK(M) by hand (tokens won't help with those Journey Guide toons), if there's nothing else you want, Fennec + Old Boba are enough to make a great team bc you already have the lifter Ventress (DD).
So at that point you LST Fennec and gear/relic Old Boba.
I really think these 2 squads can be mostly acquired by LSTs and would do much more for your roster than Gungans. (It also boosts a toon required eventually for GL Mando.)
I poked around quite a bit and couldn't find anything with higher effectiveness than this, but listen to other folks as well. Anyone might find something I've missed.
Hope all that helps!
MasterSeedy, what would be a good team for Baylan? I know that Shin Hati and Marrok are designed to be with him... I just don't know about the other two. What suggestions do you have?
