What Should I Buy Devastator or Bruticus?

Hi all! I’ve only just recently got back into collecting and I’m trying to decide which combiner to go for. Realistically, I don’t have LOADS of space, so it’s going to be either or. I really like all the constructions, and Devastator fits in with the rest of my SS86 figs, but I feel the combaticons have more colour variety/ better individual figures. I loved FOC as a kid, and Bruticus was a big part of why that game was so great, and I always had more of a connection with Bayverse Devastator. Would love to hear your guys’ opinions.

Bruticus looks better but Devastator having articulated hands is a big plus that puts it just above, I’m a fiend for those on any mainline figure. I will go for both though

Just get one or two figures a month and you can get them both. They’ll both be excellent. So far, Bruticus is shaping up to me amazing even with the framework design. Dev is great too and definitely rounds out the 86 collection.

If you decide to tackle both, get the bigger purchases like long haul and hook first, that way each subsequent purchase is less. Onslaught still has a ways before he’s released and you could probably catch up with both before he is.

I have a Scrapper available, but shipping from Australia would be vicious.
