CCP have hinted at a 'surprise' in the Winter Expansion. Every previous such surprise has been a shiny (but usually completely useless) free ship. So, what do you think this year's free hangar bauble will be? Or will it be something completely different?

An archaeological ship, or something else no one will use.

A crapper for the CQ.

Some days you're the bug, and some days your the windscreen.                   And some days, you're just a man with a gun.

Just do it over the railing on all the poor people at the bottom of the station like the rest of us.

A lump of coal because the community's been naughty.
Reprocessing the coal gives you a Santa hat for the character creator.
Reprocessing the Santa hat gives you a ship with a 1-1-1 slot layout, 1 cpu, 1 PG and a 200% damage bonus against the new tier 3 ships.

Only if I get to put walls around him and have him die from urinary retention.

I think it will be a shiny but otherwise completely useless ship.

Though some shiny self-serving toys in the CQs would be more useful, considering the loneliness we all have to suffer.

i reckon we will all get a santa like monocle OR a santa suit from the nex store

also Large Colliable Object will get a free make over Blink

Everytime you buy something that says "made in china" you are helping the rising unemployment in your own country unless you are from china, Buy locally produced goods and help create more jobs.

i'd rather a micro veldspar roid launcher for suicide ganking hulks with.

fly into a belt and take aim and launch a micro veldspar roid at a hulk.... the hulk has to try lock and mine it before it hits the ship...if it does hit the hulk then its boom dead hulk

would be an epic way to clear out bots while leaving genuine players alone
