[edit] Animated Series
Bruticus first appeared in the episode Starscream's Brigade when Starscream ordered the Combaticons to merge and battle the Constructicons when Megatron had them merge to form Devastator. Although they are triumphant, they are knocked out when the Stunticons merge to form Menasor for a sneak attack.
In the episode Revenge of Bruticus the Combaticons attempt to get revenge on Megatron by using the spacebridge on Cybertron to collide the Earth to the Sun. Megatron, forced to work alongside the Autobots, had managed to defeat Bruticus. However, seeing his great power, Megatron decided to forgive Starscream of his previous treachery by tricking the Autobots to think Bruticus was destroyed, when in reality the Decepticons reprogrammed the Combaticons to be loyal to their leader.
The Combaticons and their combined form made several other appearances, including a battle with the Aerialbots and their combined form of Superion and when Swindle sold the parts of his allies for money until Megatron threatened him to repair them.

The Combaticons and their combined form of Bruticus were repained as the Commandos and their combination of Ruination, who was a repaint of Bruticus. However, a new character unrelated to either the repainted character or the new Ruination appeared in the toys, a red, black, and yellow cerberus that is reportedly a holdover from the Beast Machines toy line.
[edit] Fun Publications
Bruticus was a supporting character appearing in Fun Publications fiction "Gone to Far", a text-based story set on Transtech Cybertron.

The character Bruticus Maximus is a direct homage to the G1 Bruticus. In fact, it's name in the Japanese version was simply Bruticus, with the five combiners each with the English names of the Combaticons in the Japanese version.
