There is about zero reason for TLC to preserve the collectible value of

Wizards of the Coast has never really had any reason to preserve

Yet do you really think it'd be a good business idea to rerelease all
the powerhouse cards?

It is the same with magic the gathering cards. I collected for a while and I
found that the rarest card was the black lotus. What would happen if WOTC
re-released the black lotus. Anyone who has an origonal would stop
purchasing WOTC products.

(...) I can't say that I'd stop purchasing their products (since I already have), but yes, I would be pretty darn pissed if they rereleased the Lotus, Juzam, Library, etc. All of which I own at least one of. Jasper (25 years ago, 6-Jan-00, to lugnet.dear-lego)
