Remember, other than "Prowl with sidecar/samurai" armor people had no fucking idea how this would work. If the sidecar would be detachable or not, if it would plug onto a perfectly unchanged Prowl, if it would be sold by itself or what. If Prowl was to be remolded or a new sculpt then there was a chance it would leave out the shurikens. It would make the toy less of a FUCK YOU if one version of Prowl had just the stupid traffic light and shurikens, while the other only had armor and a new weapon.
It's perfectly reasonable.
