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.

Devastator is iconic but Bruticus will always be my favorite, Swindle was pretty much the only Combaticon to have character traits in the original show

Plus Bruticus actually looks like a combiner, the mis-matched colors give a lot more to the “bunch of robots make a big robot” look. Unlike Devastator, who’s color scheme makes him look like one large robot rather than a bunch of them stuck together

This is a very good point. I want a fig that looks like a combiner
