I can certainly understand the appeal of reprinting the original Advanced Dungeons & Dragons rule books for the nostalgia element alone – and I’m looking to snag my copies – but now Wizards of the Coast have announced this September the 3.5 edition of the D&D rules will receive a premium reprint too. That’s leaving me scratching my head a bit since part of the proceeds of the 1st edition rules will benefit the Gygax Memorial Fund so that’s another reason to get your hands on them but I’m not sure what the appeal may be for snagging a reprint of 3.5. Keep in mind this is all in the midst of open playtesting of the upcoming D&D Next

The survey in the below post also asks gamers to vote for their top three products for each year from 2003-2007, so it looks like WotC is bouncing around other reprints as well.

From Wizards:

Earlier this year, we announced the release of the 1st Edition core rulebook premium reprints. And now, we’re further pleased to offer 3.5 Edition Core Rulebook premium reprints releasing this September!

On sale September 18, these 3.5 Edition premium reprints feature new covers and the latest errata — so, be sure to pick yours up at your friendly local book or gaming store!

– The Player’s Handbook has all the rules players need to create characters, select equipment, and engage in combat with a variety of supernatural and mythical foes.

– The Dungeon Master’s Guide provides the DM with advice, guidelines, and everything he or she needs to create challenges, adventures, and full-fledged D&D campaigns, including sections on prestige classes, magic items, and character rewards.

– The Monster Manual contains material that players and DMs alike will find useful. With hundreds of monsters to populate all levels of dungeons, this tome also includes monster creation rules, information on playing monsters as characters, details on monster tactics, and powered-up versions of standard creatures.

Together, these three volumes comprise the core rules for the 3.5 Edition of the Dungeons & Dragons game!
