Amazon "Zombie" Sets

I have a question for the pros here. For the sets that amazon "zombies" or continues to sell for a year or 2 past retirement, are the seal codes still pre retirement? Basically, I am trying to figure out if lego makes one monster batch before retirement for amazon, or do they keep the molds and continuously produce and restock them for amazon over the course of post retirement period. For example if I bought this guy here, would it have 2023 codes on it? IT potentially can affect a buying decision.....
