The Uncharted games are really good (at least the first 3 -- I never got around to playing 4 or the spinoff). They're very much Indiana Jones: The Video Game in spirit, that same pulp adventure stuff that Spielberg and Lucas were inspired by for Indy. But the best part of the PS4 remasters is they fix the incredibly terrible grenade controls for the first game.

I got Earthrise Cliffjumper last week. He's pretty cool, the way he transforms is clever but winds up with a classic look. He's pretty small height wise for a deluxe, but does come with his BFG from "More Than Meets the Eye". Equipping him with Ironworks is somewhat comical because of how much the Ironworks parts dwarf him.

Cyberverse Generations Deluxes of Hot Rod and Grimlock.
Grimlock suffers from what the old Deluxe Universe Galavtron suffered from. He should have been a larger size and he'd been perfect. As such, his legs pop off a little too easily. (And they're fiddly for transformation.) He's not fun to transform, but once he's there, his robot and dino modes are fun. And he comes with a crown!
Hot Rod's forearm has those super long pipes/doors, but he is one of those toys that once you have him in hand, he's actually kinda fun. He's got a real Nick Roche design to him. That said, he's SEVERELY lacking paint apps. Other than his hands, feet and the joints his arms are on... He's made entirely of red plastics and every color on him is painted. Even the wheels! If Reproplables ever did anything for Cyberverse, he'd be amazing.

Yeah, my Hot Rod also had a bit of a QC issue where one of the legs doesn't quite "pop" into place like the other, and will collapse in on itself if the weight is placed wrong. I do agree that his robot mode is a bit underwhelming in terms of visuals.
Grimlock has some issues with the transformation, but he's a lot more solid than Hot Rod in that regard.

I noticed that with my Hot Rod as well. But if you give a ever so slight bend to the knee, it stays locked then. I did up the pain on his legs and it really helps a LOT... When the lockdown lightens a bit (or I get impatient and just order from Amazon), I'm gonna pick up some orange acrylic paint and some fine brushes (lost mine during the move) and finish him up, hopefully looking like this. In all honesty though, they're Cyberverse toys. They're not up there with your average Generations figure, but they're decent enough to use as an art reference for a project I'm doing soon. Still would have liked them to be like the old NuRiD toys.
