Seems there's a lot of Hi Res and colour images that are not being released.

There has been for a while. People kicked up a stink when Rosetta first arrived at the comet and they didn't release the high resolution OSIRIS images. Here is ESAs explanation:

As for Philae they commanded a move of the lander body to hopefully put it in a better orientation relative to the Sun. However it's about to run out of batteries in a matter of minutes now so we'll just have to hope it wakes up again as the comet gets closer to the Sun.
