'''Bruticus''' was the first [[combiner]] created by the mad scientist [[Shockwave (WFC)|Shockwave]]. For all his strength and power, however, the monstrous gestalt has only the most rudimentary mind, capable of wanton destruction and little else.

Bruticus is the combined form of five [[Combaticon (WFC)|Combaticons]]:

*[[Onslaught (WFC)|Onslaught]] (torso)
*[[Brawl (WFC)|Brawl]] (left leg)
*[[Vortex (FOC)|Vortex]] (left arm)
*[[Swindle (FOC)|Swindle]] (right leg)
*[[Blast Off (FOC)|Blast Off]] (right arm)

He is also known as '''Bruticus Maximus'''.

==Fiction==
===Aligned novels===
Shockwave created Bruticus Maximus when working in [[Crystal City]]. Though Bruticus's individual components were intelligent, the combined form was a monster who had trouble telling friend from foe, and he was put into stasis.

Following Crystal City's destruction during the war with the [[Autobot]]s, Bruticus was revived and was ordered to serve on the battlefield at [[Praxus]]. During this battle, he took wounds that would prove to be fatal to any other Transformer, and survived, albeit heavily injured. He would not be so lucky during his deployment at [[Kalis]], with [[Optimus Prime (Prime)|Optimus Prime]], [[Jazz (WFC)|Jazz]] and [[Sideswipe (WFC)|Sideswipe]] dismembering Bruticus to the point it was believed he would never combine again. Sideswipe boasted he tore off his head. Not even this would destroy the combiner for good; Bruticus later saw action at the forefront of the [[Nova Cronum]] massacre.{{storylink|Transformers: Exodus|Exodus}}

==Notes==
* Early on in ''Exodus'', Bruticus Maximus and [[Onslaught (WFC)|Onslaught]] are referred to as "Constructicons". The Constructicons here are a larger team than normal, but given that this description shortly follows a paragraph talking about definite, actual Constructicons and that the Combaticons' team name IS mentioned later, this seems a likely error by [[Alpha Trion (Prime)|Alpha Trion]] or [[Alex Irvine]].
* At the moment, Bruticus appears in levels where the player uses Vortex. Based on gameplay previews, the Combaticons apparently use Bruticus' brute (heh) strength to break an Autobot defensive line before separating and giving the player control of Vortex. His primary weapon is a flamethrower, he can use Vortex's spinning rotor blades a shield, and he also has the ability to punch the ground, sending a shockwave at his enemies.
*The Bruticus toy has been shown in official images with two different color schemes, one more game accurate than the other. Which one (or if both) will see final retail release remains undetermined.
