No.
...you don't.....

But getting back on subject.
Some of the Hunt for Decepticons figures should have been released as Generations figures. Like Seaspray, Brawn, Fallback (just to name a few)

The new Generations toy line goes back a few years.
I remember when CLASSICS was announced. I nearly pooped myself when I seen Astrotrain and Starscream. The internet teased us for months with fancy pictures of the new unreleased figures of the time.

Then it was called CLASSICS 2.0 / UNIVERSE
Calling this the UNIVERSE line was confusing since there was already a TF toy line called Universe. Universe came out with a few new molds and a lot of redecos from the Cybertron toy series. My favorite from the Universe line is definatly Cyclonus. Not to mention Galvatron was released at this time.

Then a long pause.... they stopped making this line for a while to release the movie figures line. They released a couple new figures once in a while to keep us all involved with this toy line.

Now they call it Generations. With figures from the War For Cybertron game as well as new releases of figures from our past. Drift was finally released as a toy for the first time. Red Alert and Thrust finally made it to the local markets.

Generations is now being known as "REVEAL THE SHIELD"
Giving us back the old "rub-sign" gimmick.

As I have mentioned before, you can call it whatever you want.
2.0, Universe, Generations, Reveal The Shield.....
To me it's all CLASSICS.

And I have been saying for years and years now, they need to make a "classics" G1 Arcee!!! for Primus sake Hasbro!!! Git busy wit it!!

That would be awesome, in fact I would like a Classics/Generations "Wreckers Gift Set" or am I hoping for too much?

Your probably hoping for too much lol. Hasbro doesnt listen to the words of the fans, if they did, they would make way more money. The ceo's are cheap, thats why they repaint everything. I would love to see generations / war for cybertron figures of everyone from the game. I think all the bots have wicked cool modes, and robot forms. Shockwave and Slipstream would especially be cool.

What other figures besides Seaspray, Brawn, & Fallback should have been classified under the Classics/Universe/Generations figures?

I am curious. Seaspray is on the XMAS list this year. We'll see if it comes! :)
