Could we say that Wheeljack built them (he and Ratchet did construct the Dinobots, after all)?
Well, anyway, I wanna hear you theory/ies. Let 'em rip!

Sounds logical to me.

I love the Protectobots!!
I've learnt recently that the canon for G1 was changed several times before the protectobots arrived so I just want to excercise caution and mention that I don't have any idea how reliable what I say still is (but it's canon to me):
But:
Acording to my introduction to them in the '80s, the Protectobots were amongst the Re-enforcements that came to Earth from Cybertron (Generation 1.5) after both sides found out that Optimus and Megzy were still alive (and Earth had Energon).
Optimus commissioned the Protectobots and Defensor to take care of the Human casualties and the collateral damage to Human cities,so they took the emergency-response AltModes we are familiar with, tho I assume their Cybertronian role was something similar to emergency response/first response roles, anyway.
Defensor was a just-in-case safety feature to make sure the Protectobots had the firepower they needed to neutralize/counter Decepticon surprises when caught away from the main battle.
In terms of theories, I theorise that all the G1.5 Autobots (Hoist,Grapple,Red Alert, Inferno,Protectobots etc.) got to Earth hitching a ride onboard Omega Supreme.
If you don't find a more 'truthful' truth, I hope this good for ya!
