How many times did they stage a full-frontal assault on Cybertron in the cartoon? They usually used subterfuge or schemes, sometimes manipulating the Decepticons to be the main invasion force, like in FFoD.
And that's with the Autobots in charge. How well do you think that would have worked...
So... about them minimizing Hot Rod/Rodimus Prime, or even just the main movie cast in general...

Marvel G1 had a simpler explanation. From Transformers Universe, via TFWiki:
One could easily surmise that as long as they were serving as enforcers for Unicron, they weren't able to move so freely and be able to attempt to take back Cybertron until after Unicron was defeated.
Personally, I never saw IDW as "G1", no more than the live action movies or TFOne or anything else.
More like an "Ultimate" Transformers, or like TMNT 2012.
