Just an idea for this year (though the update is already probably in the works):
Release one Tier 6 Refit per faction of an Iconic Previous Starship OR Non-Canon Original Design per week for a month.
Totaling in 4 new ships per faction (And yes, no 5 Fed/2 Other Faction BS), each with a unique piece of equipment (all adding up to a faction-exclusive "T6" set), improved Boff seating, and a new free* skin (similar to the Pathfinder).
*Make each ship available via the Zen Store, but only make it free for the week of its release, and 50% off for the duration of the Anniversary Event.
