Will the Allied-Colored Talismans Be Reprinted with New Artwork?

It is nice that there are finally enemy-colored talismans in Modern Horizons to complement the allied-colored talismans from the original Mirrodin block, so that has me wondering about something.
The first two cards in the “sword of X and Y” cycle, Sword of Fire and Ice and Sword of Light and Shadow , from the original Mirrodin block, were illustrated by Mark Zug; later, in the Scars of Mirrodin block, three more swords were printed, illustrated by Chris Rahn, and Rahn was later tasked with illustrating the original two swords in Modern Masters with new artwork, and he then illustrated the two swords that appeared in Modern Horizons (which means that it is also safe to presume that he shall illustrate the final three swords, whenever they are printed).
The enemy-colored talismans have artwork that is radically different from that of the allied-colored talismans, so is it possible that the allied-colored talismans may eventually be reprinted with new artwork and flavor text? What does everyone else say about this?

I wish they had stuck with the 'no background and painful toilet seat' art direction of the originals.

As wotc runs out of ways to print new things they will eventually reprint everything, we could see the new talismans in the new commander decks or we could see them 5 years from now in some conspiracy set. who knows they might even print better rocks.
