    Is the name of the preview ship USS Poona?

    No, it's supposed to be USS Pooma. I couldn't tell what it said from my phone, either, so I asked Kael.

    Interesting, and I will probably end up using at least one or two of these in the future. I'm not sure I like the "dark" for Romulan visual effect...honestly the pale green of Delta looks more "Romulan" to me.

    The Romulan shield actually looks pretty Reman to me, sa sa?

    Yes! Space barbie for our spaceships. Hoping one of those two is a good shade of purple to go with my 'Vanu Sovereignty' flagship Annorax. The Romulan one will go well to the Eternal to make it look less federation and more romulan. Missing something in red, and something KDF-themed.

    No new awesome Borg junk? :(
    The old Borg set should have a special slot for all ship, putting itself atop ALL other visuals as a second layer. Might want that for the other oldie goldie as well; Aegis. :)

    Of these new ones, Terran, Omega and Romulan catches my attention the most.

    I was hoping for mirror lightening strikes and the Terran logo on the saucer section of the hull for the Terran shield. I see about 4 that look ok. Hard to tell with the small pics.

    Note.... Cloaking will remove the Vanity Shield visuals. When I decloak my BoP, I have to remove and reinstall the Vanity Shield in the Visual slot of the ship to get back the special look it gives.

    Well... there goes 12 more inventory slots! ;)

    Just remember to avoid heavy combat, especially group content, if you want to see your ship on screen.

    More bank clutter then.
    This is exactly why special-purpose inventory tabs (like the R&D supplies tab) are needed - two which come readily to mind would respectively store non-combat pets and vanity-only shields. The coding should be straightforward; there is little excuse for these not to exist.

    I also do wonder if we'll be seeing more vanity shields being added via this vector. Example, a version of the alt!Romulan based on red or blue instead of green; a khaki alt!Delta; or base!Lukari with yellow accents instead of blue.

    I, definitely say: take a look at Tribble before going through the huge grind....just to do these shield visuals. Especially, if you main the other factions. Or use alien event or lockbox ships.
    The ship tailor should be patched so that you can preview the various vanity shields as well (whether or not you actually own them) - again, should be simple, and no good reason for such functionality not to exist.

    This just proves that Vanity Shields and Pets should be powers not items.
