No D&D Miniatures set to go "out of print"

One of the big items of news to arrive recently is this: No D&D Miniatures set will ever be considered to be "Out of Print" - Wizards will reprint sets if they think there's the demand for it. However, there'll be definitely times that a set is "Out of Stock".

Linae Foster confirms that "Underdark" has seen a reprint, as follows:
Yes! We did reprint Underdark. The base text remains consistent with the original printing. As you've noticed the packaging has been re-engineered for better security. We've also switched to a stronger glue. All print runs from here forward - including any reprints - will use the newly engineered box closures and stronger glue.

Linae Foster:
We've moved on from tamper-evident to tamper-resistant packaging. And to back-up what Pauper stated: Underdark is a reprint, not a redistribution of older product. We recognized the high demand for this product and went back to press. We have no retirement policy so all older sets and figures are eligible for reprint.For the record: nothing is ever out of print, simply out of stock. Some items will be reprinted if we see the need. Others will be out of stock indefinitely.
