Matching Item Models

I've been playing Dead by Daylight for a while and I have noticed something. Each item has a unique icon but a normal model.

I think that both Killer and Survivor players would appreciate seeing the actual item they're holding in the lobby rather than the current model. For example, each of the toolboxes in the game has icons showing toolboxes of differing lengths, widths, and unique handles, heck the infamous "Alex's Toolbox" has an open top and yet the model for the item is a standard closed box.

You could just change the boldness of the red cross on the medkits for the tiers, eventually having the logo of the shield for the "Ranger Medkit".

Flashlights would be the most difficult as they all seem so similar but I imagine that the "Utility Flashlight" could be made longer, and the "Sport Flashlight" could have the barrel notches added along with the strap.

The keys just need some tweaking with the lengths and the heads.

The Rainbow map just needs some extra binding.

Overall I feel like this sort of change would make killer's dodge fewer lobbies as they'd be able to prepare for the survivors better while also making the survivors have cooler looking items.
