And I don't mean they physically can't access them, they can, but they're prohibitively expensive to produce, hence why Bandai makes their own moulds because it's honestly cheaper than producing the Japanese ones. Not to mention the Legacy line, despite how many have issues with it, does sell well enough and they do put effort into those Megazords. (MMPR original notwithstanding, but it also wasn't a Legacy-original design)

Basically, they could bring back the old Megazord moulds as part of Legacy and fancy them up, but those old moulds are expensive, don't have the same level of detail, and Bandai of America could just remake them slightly smaller with improved design and sculpts for no extra cost compared to reissuing outdated moulds. It isn't logical, from a financial standpoint, to reissue when remaking is just as effective.

Now I don't know how far that extends. Like, for example, would reissuing the Wild Force Megazord be cheaper than remaking it? That's a pretty fancy Megazord that's size-wise more in line with modern releases and not as old as, say, the Astro Megazord. I don't know, but from everything I've read BOA either can't or won't use old BOJ moulds. Not as long as they can make their own.

Granted, that's just based on what I know and have heard. But that's why I said unlikely. Never say never and all that, but as of current circumstances no.
