I just came across this tweet (https://twitter.com/LindaLithen/status/1709939617158590920), which I am assuming is legit.

New illustration of the frost giant ice shaper:

I think the other picture in the tweet is for the rime hulk but I can't find the original:

I still don't have the book and now I am going to wait for the new printing, whenever that is.

I sure hope they're replacing the "art" for the Barbarian subclass.

Too bad the miniatures were already released.

Why it's a halfling grown to Giant Size and was not made with any ai in it.

The hands make it obvious it's AI-generated.

It’s not. The hand is just at an odd angle that doesn’t look the best.

Nikki Dawes the artist is even very anti AI art.

Does this mean the original AI run will be collectibles now?

Unlikely; WotC’s mentioned they’re only going to distribute the revised printing after the original print run is depleted. So the AI versions are going to be the main ones available for quite a while.
