Ice Melee.
Martial Arts on the condition that a set wide, alternate animation style based on Geese Howard's fighting style be made available.

And rad melee? Sure shivans have 2-3 attacks, but that's not enough to just copy over and call it proliferation.

I oddly approve.
Hmm...
Id have to say Spines for a primary.. and... Ninjitsu
Note: Ice Armor isnt gonna happen.. as someone said already it was in CoV Beta and it was pulled due to fury building issues.. Regen wont go because you'd die quicker then you could blink.. And I believe that a dev said that Willpower is the closest brutes will get to Regen.
That's really been debated a lot, whether /ice would suck for fury building. As it is right now, it'd be just about as bad as spines with its -recharge. My guess is that both ice sets were pulled because of how ice melee was back then.

I think instead of katana or broadsword...Brutes should get that old "Brutal Blade" set that someone had up a long while ago. 
Hey one can hope...
I like Broadsword... but they gotta give us some GIANT swords.. AND proliferate the 2 handed animations from katana to BS.... A 2-handed giant sword wielding brute would be my new favorite toon immediately.
I gotta make pain. I gotta make things right. I gotta stop what's comin'. 'Least I gotta try.

Alternate animations, like what they did with Super Strength.

The min/maxer in me wants a katana/ela brute so I can end worlds on my own.
I've always wanted to make a Martial Arts/Regeneration Brute or Tanker
Even though Regen has been nerfed so much x.x I still love it
Spines/Ice with full fury would be hilariously good. I'd make one in a second. Katana/Anything would be great, though I never liked Katana. It's great on paper, I just can't stand the death-by-many-cuts playstyle. Unless of course the cuts are double toggle auras, because that has comedic appeal.
Though really, what I'm hoping for is Scrappers getting more brute primaries. I want a version of footstomp or crowd control that can crit.
I'd like to see MA and Regen as well.
The punch anumations for MA are pretty raw looking and would be perfect for a Brute.
A non-spines form of Toxic Melee.
Toxic Armor (something new, look like Vahz disease? Nice!)
Rad Melee.
Broadsword*.
------- A two handed sword would be great. Granted the 2h version would not be compatible with shield, but that's ok with me.

MA/Regen. Spines would be nice but brutes wouldn't get the version scrappers have now. As has been said, next time Spines is looked at it's getting nerfed, and a proliferation would definitely qualify. That's why I'd rather it didn't get proliferated any time soon. I'd at least like to get my Spines stalker to 50 before it gets nerfed.
I would enjoy the following: Primary: Ice, Broadsword, Spines; Secondary: Ice, Regen.
I'd enjoy an Ice/Ice brute for the second time.

LOL, I would rather see Katana or MA i think /Ice would kinda drop a brutes overall and well being..... /Regen would suck as a Brute, Swing, Heal, Swing, Heal, Swing, Heal too much repeating for me..

Are you all mad?
Martial arts? Nyet.
Ice Armor? Slows be damned.
I want sets that fit the BRUTAL nomination, like spines, and Rad Melee.
