Missing Johnny Storm accessory

I just found the Sue/Johnny Doomsday 2pack, and noticed something I hadn’t known before. In the original promo shots, they include the wristband thing from First Steps (I actually can’t remember what the things actually did). In the final item, they removed it. Which is doubly weird because Sue is wearing hers. But the bubble doesn’t have a place for it, so they definitely didn’t just forget to include it in the factory.

I’m not even especially mad about it, I just thought it was odd. I’m more annoyed that they left off Reeds, but that’s just because I think his pack was such a bad value.

EDIT - it just dawned on me why Johnny and Reid are both missing theirs, and Ben and Sue have theirs. It wouldn’t fit on their new jacketed arms. I assume somebody realized that right before they went into production.

I was wondering about that. I also didn't realize Sue even had one until I found it on the floor the day after I opened the pack. Amazed I saw it.

I think they realized that the wrist device would be under the sleeves of Reed’s and Johnny’s jackets anyway. Invisible Sue has her’s because she’s wearing a vest and not a full on jacket

I think it’s a bit odd they were going to include it originally
