Greetings Captains!
The Lobi Crystal Consortium (a wholly-owned subsidiary of Quark Enterprises) has announced that they are no longer going to be offering the Xindi-Terrestrial Lock Box as in-game drops and rewards as of Thursday, July 16th, 2015. Now’s your opportunity to open one of these boxes for a chance at some spectacular prizes. For information on the Xindi-Terrestrial Lock Box and the items that you have a chance to win,
check out our blog here!
In addition, for a limited time only, we are running a special Lock Box promotion!
We understand that, as a Free-to-Play game, some players may have only recently started playing Star Trek Online. This means that they may have missed out on many limited-time features that are no longer available for acquisition. In order to offer these players the opportunity to experience everything that the game has to offer, we plan to periodically run promotional events that will bring back these retired features. Our hope is that both newer players, and returning players that are leveling up new characters, will be able to take advantage of these promotions to get their hands on rewards that would otherwise be unobtainable.
And so, from now until Thursday, July 16th, 2015, players will once again be able to find previously-retired Lock Boxes dropping while playing content in Star Trek Online. This includes the:
Xindi-Terrestrial Lock Box
Vaadwaur Lock Box
Delta Expedition Lock Box
Xindi Lock Box
Undine Lock Box
Hirogen Lock Box
Voth Lock Box
Elachi Lock Box
Tal Shiar Lock Box
Dominion Lock Box
Temporal Lock Box
Tholian Lock Box
Ferengi Lock Box
Cardassian Lock Box
In order to get your hands on these retired boxes, you need do nothing outside the ordinary – simply play the content you already enjoy experiencing in Star Trek Online. The chance to receive any of these Lock Boxes is the same across the entirety of the game.

At least this should bring down the prices of some traits and consoles, especially the leech.

Would be nice if they dropped some keys once in awhile too.

Possibly...but like isn't the leech drop almost as rare as the ship drop itself?

I would guess not. Consoles drop more often than ships. The price will surely drop as people try to cash in on one of the most expensive consoles out there.
Except for the Klinks of course, who stole from the Nausicaans for $20

The box's never made sense. It around 1 in 200 box's for a ship. So 200 keys on average for a chance or sell around 30keys and buy the ship on the exchange for a 100% chance.
