the kick and bass are important to stand out and the lows even get more
pronounce/punch with a good (multiband)compressor.
I know the mix itself is the biggest issue but there are some people in
the scene that say you can't get that punchy low end without a good
multiband compressor... .

You seem very particular in your needs. And it appears you need some time to work with the unit before you come to a firm opinion as to the unit's worth.
Given that, I think you need to audition either or both.
No matter what we think may work for your application, you may not agree after hearing the unit.
Given that, I dont believe the 1968 would be a bad choice, but it sounds like you may prefer the FATSO or some Distressors....that is one man's opinion.
You can create your own "Big" switch by patching EQ into most compressor's SideChain. So I wouldnt worry about that (as far as the 1968 is concerned).
Mercenary has a UK presence, so auditioning these units shouldnt be that difficult.
Good luck,
David
