New EX tin singles... Holo?

Ok, so the discussion is do you think the new tin singles will actually be any different from the regular EX's? I mean, they regular ones are going for three times as much as the tins, which appear in digital scans to be exactly the same. Of course it is hard to tell from the TnT pictures alone, how can they set these prices so low? Unless... they are somehow different. The TnT site picture of the tin singles neglects to show any signs of a "promo" symbol. Do you guys think there will be a promo single, or anything other to differentiate the two cards? If there are no differences, do you think prices will drop the the TnT tin single price of $4.99 for all editions of the non-FA?

I personally think there has to be some differences, otherwise what would the logic be behind this?
 
The prices are lower because tins are widely available. However, the prices for the ones from Next Destinies are higher because the reprints aren't out yet to cannibalize the originals' value. T&T is showing the pictures from the EX tin sell sheet, which were the regular EX versions from Next Destinies. But those more likely were placeholder images and the tin promos could have new artwork like pretty much every other tin promo.

Looking at the BW Promo list, it's pretty likely that Reshiram-, Zekrom- and Kyurem-EX will be promos:
BW33 - Riolu
BW34 - Luxio
BW35 - the single booster pack blister promo (Meowth?)
BW36-BW38
BW39 - Battle City

BW36-38 don't necessarily have to be the EX tin promos, but we haven't heard about anything else coming out in the near future...
 
So just to clarify, you're suggesting that TnT is just using the ND picture for now and they're subject to change, even artwork changes? Kinda makes me think twice about ordering mine... I think I'd almost rather have a "promo" stamp on it. Unless they make the promo artwork cooler somehow like with the BW Reshiram and Zekrom boxes.
 
Remember that the current pictures released could have placeholders for the cards. They've done this in the past.
