Bruticus was re-released as Ruination in RID, in multiple colour schemes.
Bruticus, Superion, and Devastator Constructicon Maximus were released as "Maximus combiners" in Energon.
Constructicon Maximus was released as Devastator during Classics.
Bruticus and Superion were re-released in Universe 2.0 and ROTF, depending on where you were in the world.
Silverbolt (Superion torso) and Onslaught (Bruticus torso) got ultra class toys in Universe 2.0.
Devastator was released as a supreme for ROTF.
All of the Constructicons got individual voyagers or deluxes in ROTF.
Devastator was released as a set of six legends class toys in ROTF, with multiple redecos including two different G1 homages.
Finally, Bruticus was released in at least three different colour schemes for Generations FOC.
In my opinion, the releases of Bruticus in particular are far too numerous and too recent to warrant wasting an entire wave of CW toys on when that wave could instead be made up of some of the more interesting G1 combiners. Given his importance to the IDW mythos, for instance, who wouldn't want a Monstructor? Abominus got a legends-sized release recently in Beast Hunters, but what Piranacon? Or homage some of the later releases with a new Magnaboss, Landfill, Rail Racer, or Tripredacus. People want the Predacons, so Predaking is surely an obvious choice? I'd prefer to see any of these before yet another Bruticus.
