Image and color-coded transcript (the images seem superfluous to me, but I may just not be "getting it"). The pricepoint I have heard is less that the recent Signature special editions (Brown and Marquardt's, that is). That is my understanding as well.

Because of the images, they will be oversized volumes. I haven't heard anything recently about the prices, though.

Also, after chatting with some folk, I should clarify that the Revelations volumes will be critical transcripts of the earliest manuscript only, with minimal annotation. The Document volumes will include the textual history and loads of annotation. Thanks for the feed back Christopher (and Stephen Harper). That is very encouraging.
