As far as Resolute figures go, it appears by BBTS preorder that they are going to run $2 more then normal figures. Given that Zap is not a "A-list" character that I believe isn't slated to be in Resolute (I could be wrong) I'm guessing that Hasbro is peppering in ARAH figures in with the Resolute line so that they can give the top notch treatment to those ARAH figures at that price point. I would bet that Zap comes in looking really good and very faithful to the classic version. I also hope at that price point we see a new level of articulation that we haven't seen before.

no, thye'll be regular price ~ BBTS always "scalps" on the figures they think will be the most popular/desirable so that they don't end up selling 200 poopular characters and stuck with 198 unpopular ones (or if they do, they offset the cost that way), hence Resolute Trooper is $11.99 and Resolute Cobra Commander is $8.99 but the cases are still the same price as they've been since the price increase.

Updated with possible (more accurate) new comic pack info... (Arctic Scarlett & Arctic CC)
Also the wave 12 Tripwire has lighter gray pads then the comic pack version... so the single release "Mass Device Tripwire with element" is ever so slightly different in color. I got the wave 12 version today & noticed the mild difference. |

^ No problem DB my friend! I'll post one after work. I was real curious about this one too so I'm more than happy to post the pic. The difference in tone is small, but it is there...

Wow I guess I am just going to keep my eyes peeled cause there are sure alot of Joes that I want to get. I started my collection late and have caught up so far, a wave or two behind; but I will get them eventually. LoL Though I don't care for the 12" only maybe a few.

Thanks! I may have to pick up a wave 12 Tripwire if it looks better with the slightly lighter tones.

Here's the pic DarthBrett, & I also started a thread about it. The comic pack version is on your left (darker gray pads) the single packed wave 12 w/element version is on your right (lighter gray pads.)
