Prime Target (G1)
The big-game hunter Lord Chumley begins hunting Autobots.
Detailed synopsis
At the start we see a female Russian pilot testing out her country's new Jet over the North Pole. She is suddenly attacked and forced to ejected. The only thing we see is a mysterious shape under the ice stealing the Russian jet. The scene the moves to a remote castle where Lord Chumley and his clumsley Butler are admiring all their throphies, which are all veichles from various contries including the stolen Russian jet. Chumley however wants a bigger prize in which his butler suggests the space shuttle. Chumley, however, has something bigger in mind. He plans to hunt down Optimus Prime and mount his head on a wall ( He even had it all prepared with a wall frame stating 'insert head here'!) Meanwhile Bumblebee and Tracks are patrolling the city and notice on the news that Russia is accusing America of stealing their new jet. The two Autobots then spot Astrotrain and Blitzwing and chase them into an allyway. However they appear to be illisions and are captured by Lord Chumley. Chumley's plan was to kidnap (or Autobotnap) Prime's friends so he could lure him to his castle. And somehow he maneges to capture some of them in the most bizzare traps. For example he captures Blaster using an electronic Billboard?! He even tried to capture Hoist with a lamp post! He even impressed Megatron who orders Astrotrain and Bliztwing to go and meet Chumley to ask for an alliance. Optimus Prime, like any other respected leader, is worried about his missing comrades and for once doesn't think its the Decepticons. Cosmos then radios in Prime to show him that the captured Autobots are subjected to toture. Chumley then intercepts Cosmos signal by inviting Prime to his castle. Prime agrees and, just to show how very angry he was, sent an overload feedback causing Chumleys moniter to explode. At the castle Prime is tauted by Chumley and is attacked by a large lizard. Prime defeats him and Chumley tries to bag Prime in a net. Prime dodged it and shouts back to Chumley that it will take more than a net to stop him. However the second net sends Prime to the ground but he escapes using a chain and an electrical tower. Now Astrotrain and Bliztwing arrive on the scene and start to follow Prime. Prime now comes across something so orginal...a crying damesel in a torn pink dress. But Prime isn't stupid and leaves her. Of course the Decepticons don't have brains and in attempt to crush the damesel, Bliztwing gets his foot caught in a trap and is now covered in a green goo that prevents him from moving and talking. Astrotrain can't free Bliztwing and continues following Prime. Now Prime is up against a giant robot scorpion with a T.V monitor showing Lord Chumley's face (where the hell does he get this stuff from?) and Prime is forced into combat. Astrotrain fires at Prime causing to black out. Chumley is now mad that he didn't get the honor of killing Prime himself and attacks Astotrain. Believing Prime is dead and now worthless, leaves him and takes the two Decepticons to his castle. Astrotrain and Blitzwing tell Chumley that they were here to lend a hand but Chumley says he's got plans for them. The captured Autobots said that they've done nothing wrong and want to be released but Chumley says that they had to pay the price. Bumblebee then tries to contact Prime, who is not dead, and gives him a homing signal. Lord Chumley sees Prime heading for the castle and is rejoiced that his game his still alive and ready for killing. The next challenge Prime has to face is...(will someone please tell me he he offords this stuff?)...a giant robot black widow...didn't see that coming. Prime defeats it and contiues to rescue his comrades and he is very ticked off. Chumley then uses his last secret weapon! Which turns out to be...(oh this is ridiculus) a giant revolving room (sarcastic wow). This prime also destroys and now he is mad. Chumley's last resort is the aid of the two Decepticons who turn on him rather then helping. However Prime had freed his friends and the Decepticons retreat. Prime then says to leave them and that Chumley was the throphy he wanted. In Russia a Russian Soldier finds the stolen jet with Chumley tied to it. As the Autobots roll for home the Russians have called off the threats and the world thanks Optimus Prime.
