New Dungeon Master's Guide Magic Items - No Images / UnID descriptions?

[galaxybomb]

I just got the new DMG to look through it and set up some parcels of magic items for my players and I found this really weird - One of my favorite things to do is having a reveal of what the item is with a description of the object and having an image associated, which the old DMG was set up perfectly to do with the Unidentified descriptions and the pictures associated, which the new book seems really inconsistent on- some items have pictures and a very brief Non-ID note compared to the old version, some don't have any pictures, or any descriptions at all, and some have one but not the other.

It's honestly pretty disappointing especially since the vast majority of them could have easily just been copied over from the original printings.

Nope, the original images could not be copied over from the original DMG to the new DMG. They are different products.

These are conversion, not re-imaginings. If WotC doesn't put something in the printed version, then FG doesn't get to add to the FG version. There was one occasion where FG was allowed to put in colored versions of maps that were not included in the printed version (it only had monochrome). But that was a one off and hasn't been repeated.
