No. That is because they haven't sold their stock of the old figures. If they sell through, they'll restock with newer figures.

Take what I posted with a giant grain of salt. I have no reference for that information at present. To the best of my recollection, the issue came up back when NECA had their Mirage Comics Turtles, so around 2008 and again when the sale to Viacom happened. But obviously those both happened many years ago.
