Got my preorder from Gamestop and entered the retail code.
Went to C-Store. It was under unlocked items.
Pulled, it was in my inventory. Enabled it and went to the ship dude to select it.
Here are the screen shots.

Will be getting mine in a couple of hours
Very Very nice
Nice. I'm glad I decided not to do teh preorder from gamestop. I am already running around in my vesper.
But that i a sexy ship fo sure.
Ditto - cannot friggin believe this, got the game ready to go, and they can't do the account activation. Just unsat. :mad:
Awesome. Thanks for the screen shots. I can't seem to find confirmation if that is available for a character, or if every (FED) character can unlock that. Or... can you get that for just one character? I'd appreciate it if you could confirm that all could get it.
Sad to say, the bridge is just the standard layouts.
Bridge
Awesome name.
Very limited. You can change the skin and that's about it.
Which is fine with me, who would want to put crappy hub caps on a classic car?
The Bridge layouts are the same as the standard ship, that does suck.
You can choose between it and the standard Miranda. It can be chosen for any Fed character.
I was glad you could at least modify it a little bit. You can change the hull type and the color accents. No fleet logo, no nacelle or other parts. The Buzard Collectors are animated too, BTW.
Now, can we get more classic models?
But if ever there was an iconic ship...
Oh well, I guess it's there for when we start new characters.
That's the theory. Different companies selling STO got different codes for special bonuses. Gamestop pre-orders got the Connie, other companies got other things like armor, uniforms etc etc...
Thanks for the info on where to find the bonus items. Here's my baby:
My Ship
and of course, I'm sort of dressed appropriately for it....
My Uniform
Low quality screenshots cause am at work, will take better high quality ones at home
Yeah Connie is only for Gamestop pre-orders, going with the Atari DDE gets you:

I'm actually going to try to keep mine updated with the latest equipment I can get my hands on and see how playable it is in the late game. It'd be challenging to fly it around as an Admiral - it'd be like playing this game on "hard" mode.
Can't customize the appearance, but the equipment modules can be changes like on the regular ships.
Bah. Hard mode is playing with your Light Cruiser at Admiral levels
<_<
Which I'll probably give a whirl in any case :P
