I think they may be moving away from that type of model. I personally liked a lot of the T5's they released in the lockboxes, but it seems there's not going to be anymore. Or if there are, they are going to be few and far between.
As for the box itself, I've been wanting a Husnock ship for a very long time. And now, I can get one. Well, once I get enough Lobi to get one. The Miradorn ship looks nice, I could live with it if I got it.
The ground weapon models look nice as well. Definitely like the uniform too.
Guess I may have to open a few just for gits and shiggles.
Hello. My name is iamynaught and I am an altaholic.
This box contains weapons that utilize advanced Disruptor technology powered by Krieger Waves. Ground Weapons use a special converter that has a chance to transfer its excess power to your kit modules to increase Kit Readiness and Performance. Space Disruptors are powered from a Krieger Wave Converter, resulting in a unique disruptor that has the potential to enhance a ship's systems involved in Drain and Control capabilities.
Huh, was really expecting Tzenkethi. Oh well, this looks like a fun pack. I especially like the idea of the Saboteur Delivery Vehicle. "Please Captain, allow me to be used as ammo next!" Seem's like something I'd have fun with on my Klink, but I'd question any Fed captains that used it :P

For the 30 Year TNG Anniversary ... please, pretty please give us a Galaxy and Sovereign interior (canon) like you did for the TOS-Enterprise, Voyager and Defiant. TNG and ETP are the only shows left without a canon ship interior and TNG deserves it first, I think. ^^ Also, a visual remake of the Season 3 to 7 TNG uniforms wouldn't hurt either, they look really blurry and they have glitches at the upper arm to torso overpass.

This is a very promising lock box with lots of different items. I am so glad Cryptic is offering some respect to ST:TNG via this lock box & hopefully other. I grew-up watching TNG & enjoyed immensely. Also, since that might indeed be Data at the tail-end of that Survivor episode that would be cool too. I am not much for the gamble boxes, but this Privateer one looks interesting.

They'll probably use the bridge seen in Gambit parts 1 and 2 for the Miradorn ship.
If they even make a unique bridge. We didn't get one for the NX class.
As for the lockbox, I just may try for that Recycled Power Conduits trait for my Orion Science toon in her crowd control build...
Don't let them promote you. Don't let them transfer you. Don't let them do anything that takes you off the bridge of that ship, because while you're there... you can make a difference.

wow... other than the costumes (blah) these have to be the most un star trek efforts yet(30th bs or not) - -not only that because they seem to be using L2.0 for the screenies they actually look like they were made for a commordore 64

Besides having more celebs join, this is the only thing I want in terms of celebrating the TNG anniversary in STO.
In regards to this new lock box, I am honestly unimpressed with all the content. All ground and space traits are average with a move towards sci, costume bleh, and the ship itself is left to be desired. The ground weapon set will be nice to experiment with, but other than that, I really do not see anything that stands out.
I'm really digging those new ground weapons. Ships are an interesting change of pace too. I may have been playing around with the privateer uniform in tribble's Foundry, it's got some great kit-bash potential. I'll be getting that for at least one character, good stuff!

FYI, both ships are authentic, canon designs. Put them in STO, that's what they look like.
The rest of the content is either lifted directly from, or is inspired by, material from TNG. It's Trek, no question.

The Husnock ship seems not very sexy, though. The Miradorn Space Crab... Neat.

Seriously, this is actually the first lockbox since T6 became an actual thing that I'm interested in.
That wasn't just some old man pining away because of lost love. He was a Douwd :-)
