That has to be old stock they found in a warehouse. There's no way someone picked those molds to do new runs.
Haven't investors been getting on Hasbro for excess stock? Sounds like they just found some unsold product in a warehouse sweep.

Sunstreaker I can kind of see (the recent reuse was in a store exclusive multipack). But SIEGE Prowl would be some stunning tone-deafness. That is, unless there's some exclusivity hoopla that's managed to stay in effect this long (we never did get a straight reissue of either that Ironhide or non-dead Earth mode Prowl). This despite also-Amazon exclusive Dirge and Ramjet both getting released elsewhere.

There's no stand-alone version of Prowl to reissue aside from the Siege one; they'd have to reissue the two pack entirely, and that Ironhide probably isn't too popular now that the SS version is out. Otherwise they'd need to generate new packaging for him and at that point it's no longer a reissue, it's a product repack.

Sunstreaker is a weird choice given we're getting an '86 version next year.
