With the update to the Miranda, the Reliant class, i'm pretty sure they will release a refit to the Exeter Class, the Yorktown Class using the assets created for the Reliant Class, considering the anniversary of TWoK, it will be in the c-store, and possibly a 4-4 cruiser, probably command or inteligence. Opinions? (that also gives the oportunity to update the look of the constitution refit)

An update to the TMP Connie will definitely be part of a new ship. Precedent would suggest a new promo variant, like the Jem'Hadar Strike and Recon ships, however I'm not ready to completely rule out the possibility of a C-Store variant.
With the Bug ships, there's no real incentive to own both on one character, especially given the outrageous price tag. However with the Connie they could put a variant in the store, ensure the promo variant is slightly better overall, and add in a very strong set bonus with the new console. This would give current T6 Connie owners a reason to buy the C-Store version, C-Store only purchasers would still have incentive to gamble for the promo variant, and the double dipping would truly maximize the profit potential of this immensely popular ship.
