WizKids is temporarily changing our in-store Organized Play requirements, and will leave the decision in the hands of individual stores to determine when resuming events as normal in their store is appropriate. Stores should look to recommendations and guidance from local and national health authorities to determine the level of caution to use when opening their store or hosting events.

In order to allow the most flexibility for stores and players during this time, we are specifically:
• Relaxing WKPPLA enforcement on Pre-Release product; stores will be able to postpone their Pre-Release events or simply sell their Pre-Release boosters early so players can take the product home to enjoy. While this primarily applies to DC HeroClix: Justice League Unlimited Pre-Releases and Release Day OP events, stores should feel comfortable cancelling or postponing any WizKids events they may have scheduled.
• OP prizes are still not able to be resold, but can be awarded at a later date, or given away if local laws allow.
• Please also note, we’ll be modifying some of our in-store Paint Night Event programs to support a “Take-and-Paint” participation model. Allowing painters to continue to purchase minis from their Friendly Local Game Stores, but encouraging them to take them home to paint and participate virtually with their store and the community. We will provide helpful video tutorials, live walkthroughs, and more for painters and stores to use. Please stay tuned for more details in the days and weeks ahead.

We hope everyone stays safe and healthy during this trying time
