Tim -> ??? -> Big Green Pi -> SFT

I'm finally starting to narrow down my dirt choices and I've come to this conclusion:
Paul C Tim -> ????? -> Arc Effects Big Green Pi -> Catalinbread SFT
For the ????? I'm thinking about these options:
ss/bs Mini Fuck
Skreddy Hybrid Fuzz Driver
Foxrox CC Hybrid Fuzz
JHS Superbolt
Dr. Scientist The Elements
EQD Monarch
Thoughts on any of these? Only 1 will fit...
Guitar has filtertrons, amps are Marshall, Dr. Z, and a Super Reverb.

Really different sounds. The Tim is my main dirt, using it plus the boost side to get od from my amps, as well as push pedals that sit after it. The BGP is an all-around fuzz, the SFT emulates an amp I have nothing similiar to and - then there's one more space for ?????

I'd go with the Mini, because you can get a different flavour of fuzz out of it that out of the muff

it can do that aggressive and distinctively fuzzy sound and is overall very nice

I haven't tried any of your choices. Any of them.
But I'd like to...and alongside your 3 picks, I'd first reach for the Elements or Mini.
And I'm not being a homer because them boys have ILF presence.
Next would be the Foxrox Hybrid.
I feel like any of those would be really easy to dial in with your amps, alone or stacked.
But I'm also very curious about a Monarch into Marshall...
Which Marshall?

the pedals you have already are all quite clean? of the pedals you listed i'd say the mini with the bias cranked ccw gives a dirty broke up j-fuzz
another dirty od-fuzz worth looking at is the ss/bs superpuzzle, will give you a lot of dirty options to complement what you already have

Oh! well, it has maybe the most expansive and fun to use eq of any pedal I have ever used. and, the gain range is ridiculous

as much as i love my Elements, I don't think they'd be "different" enough for this setup
i mean the sound can be manipulated a lot, but I'd recommend something fuzzy

I'm think I'm gonna go for the ss/bs Mini Fuck and maybe also try it after the Big Green Pi.
I know a few people have suggested that so why not?
