Ok, So, Lord Chumley is a big game hunter right? So why, out of all the transformers on Earth, does he consider Optimus to be the one he wants? I'd imagine Megatron, Devastator, Omega Supreme, or even Grimlock to be worthier of his effort, being more dangerous than Optimus is
The Decepticons regularly get their asses handed to them by Prime. Why would a big game hunter be interested in them? That would be like going after zebras instead of lions.
Why would a game hunter go after a bot who turns into a gun when he could go after a one that was turned into an alligator? He knew the Autobots wouldn't kill him, unlike what the Decepticons would do if he went after one of them.
Optimus Prime he wants the Ultimate hunt and that Prime powerful and Intelligent and Chumley is,'t fool enough to mess with something he would clearly know he can't handle like Devastator or Omega Supreme and id think he may have also taken into consideration that in the worst case scenario with Prime its that he gets away with Megatron worse case would be Chumley getting a face full of fusion cannon
If the G1 universe Soviet Union is anything like the real world Soviet Union, Chumley probably wishes Prime killed him.
Seconded. Strapping a guy to the cockpit of the top secret Soviet fighter plane that he stole and dropping him front of the Kremlin does not bode well. Chumley probably ended up as someone's man-bitch in a Siberian gulag.
