Tough to get a sense of the ships in front of a star like that.....The Rommie one has a neat look to it, but the other two are kinda meh, like you said.
Qapla'!

Also the purple color ties in with the Dyson color from weapons and equipment. Not impressed with the ships or the Dyson area. Lets hope the ships have some useful consoles, weapons, stats or bridge slots.
As if that would happen.

The fed one looks like an intrepid. Hooray for picking the second ugliest ship in Starfleet.

The fed one actually looks like a flying Shell ad. Yay for product placement!

FYI:
Hi Captains,
This image was taken from Tribble, but I wanted to provide a few important notes about this. The free ships this year are not your average Anniversary ship; they've got some extremely amazing bells and whistles, and even 2 new mechanics being introduced for the first time (more info soon). Because of this, you'll need to work a tad bit harder for a free ship over just running an episode one time. However! You will receive a package of 400 Qmendations as a one-time reward the first time you complete the Featured Episode, "A Step Between Stars." That means you only need to collect 600 more, which at 40 a day from completing a short daily, will take 15 days out of the 25+ days the event runs. There should also be a Lobi option for additional/ substitute Qmendations.
All of this info and much more will be coming up in our Dev Blogs next week, and I think once you see the ships, you'll see why a little extra effort for the ships will be more than worth it.
Cheers,
Brandon =/\=

From the dev blog:
"We wanted this ship to do something that we’ve never done before, so we came up with the idea of having the ship perform some dynamic bridge officer power swapping. We also wanted it to feature a special weapon that becomes available only when the ship entered Tactical Mode. This ship by default has a Commander Science seat and a Lt. Commander Tactical seat among its bridge officer stations. However, when the ship enters Tactical Mode, the two seats effectively switch. The Commander Science seat is downgraded to Lt. Commander Science, and the Lt. Commander Tactical is upgraded to Commander Tactical. Additionally, Tactical Mode also enables powerful Dual Heavy Proton Cannons, effectively giving the ship 4 Fore weapons and 3 Aft."
That sounds pretty interesting and makes the protonic set a must on these ships. It also seems it can have some kind of pets.

No Fleet version. Should already be a 10 console ship.

Oh yay. Usually the free anniversary ships are 9 console ships with a fleet version out shortly after. Or in the case of the obelisk carrier, a lobi version. But since we do have to run 15 daily missions to get it, I suppose it having 10 consoles is good.

According to the screenshots in the Dev Blog, it's a 9-console ship. Of course that may change when the SHIP dev blog comes out this week.
