There are two reasons that won't work:
A) Your purchases, and the purchases of a few others who might join you, will make no noticeable difference to Hasbro's bottom line. They are a huge company with a wide range of products. It would be like shooting spitballs at an elephant. The elephant won't even notice.
B) If you DID manage to put a dent in TF sales, the likely result would be that Hasbro would think people are losing interest in TFs, and they might respond by making fewer of them, so your strategy could backfire.

Are you sure about that? Because they look very similar to the Prime characters and the RID toys. Are you saying they based the designs of the Prime animated TV series on those scrapped Generations concepts?

Generations is a bit of a "catch all" line, with stuff like classics style G1 characters, War For Cybertron figures, etc. Prime figures were supposed to be part of that, but no, the show came first and the toys were based on that much like how WFC were based on game designs.
