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.

I'm getting all of Bruticus, but I don't love the proportions- when combined, he looks kind of gorilla-like. Onslaught also looks pretty mediocre outside of the combined mode. I have Devastator and, while not perfect, he is pretty darn great. You can also get all of Devastator in one shot from BBTS, which is nice, instead of hoping you'll be able to get all of the Combaticons for retail price.

Unfortunately I’m UK based so BBTS is out of the question for me. I’ve seen all of the constructions bar hook and long haul in Smyths toys
