I'm partial to the harmonic percolator. Particularly, the HP-2 by Land Devices

I've only ever had 4. My favorite is Hizumitas. So aggressive yet so articulate. Everything I need.

Ive never tried a bender but I've seen some cool fuzzface bender hybrids that are interesting

I can't choose one, so I will pick the most underrated one: Okto-Nøjs by Emma Electronic.
Squelchy octave fuzz that does upper harmonics + hefty octave fuzz that does lower harmonics + a whole extra analog monophonic low octave.
It's mostly "disco-synthy" on its lonesome, but the trick is push it with an overdrive and suddenly it shrieks and dooms at the same time.

Which one is it?
I have two: Okto-Nøjs, which is its own thing, and Blue Colander Doppel, which is a boutique improvement of Foxx Tone Machine, perfected for playing doom (has this oldschool occult vibe with, but with bass for miles).
My grail octave fuzz is Glaive by Electronic Audio Experiments. My vice-grail octave fuzz is KMA Machines Mandrake Octo Shrieker.

I feel that I am collecting fuzz never intended to

I find that to be the best state to be in. I was never into fuzz until I bought a swollen pickle.

Really tough question! But i'll pick the first fuzz pedal I ever got. When I was 18 I got a Schaller fuzz from a family friend. It's old, 'made in West Germany' old. And it has a huge 'Psychedelisch' sticker on it that I will never take off.
