I'm not saying copyright law requires a particular date (in fact there is no requirement to have a copyright notice at all anymore). Copyright laws are about protecting intellectual property, not fraud prevention. It would be considered fraudulent to re-release a previous year's product without indicating so in the collectibles market.

I'm sure they have multiple reasons for doing that now. That might be part of it. But a buyback isn't the same as a newly cut card pretending to be from a release years ago. They inform you of the potential to pull buybacks, so there is no fraud there. Whereas adding new cards to the population of an older set changes the stated odds/printruns consumers relied on at initial release, which could be fraudulent.

Not sue what's funny about that. It was a legitimate question.
