New in Box (Blister), Out of Print (Production)

Six mistakes mankind keeps making century after century: Believing that personal gain is made by crushing others; Worrying about things that cannot be changed or corrected; Insisting that a thing is impossible because we cannot accomplish it; Refusing to set aside trivial preferences; Neglecting development and refinement of the mind; Attempting to compel others to believe and live as we do

OOP can mean Out of Print or Out of Package.

If something is both NiB and OOP, then they are saying New in Box, Out of Print.

I thought it means Out Of Production. Which means Games Workshop no longer produces or sells the models.

However they do sometimes advertise models as OOP when you can buy them new from the Collectors range... Watch out for that one! (Although eBay might sell 'em cheaper!)

I'd put a quote here, but XKCD would have a better one.

That's why they're in the Collectors range.

They're out of print (production), but they still have stock you can buy.

Nope GW resurrected some of the OOP minis when they revamped the " bits " store , but the previous poster ( Ardensfax ) is correct i have seen several minis for sale on e-bay as Out Of Production that are freely available in the gw on-line store ( and yes they do bump up the price )
