Only problem with combo brad/staple guns is that the length of brads usable is reduced. My brad gun will shoot brads up to 2 inches, but my staple/brad gun only handles up to 1 1/2". But both were very affordable, so consider two finishing guns!!! I also agree with air impacts/ratchets. For the 1/2 " drive, spend the extra dollars and get a high-torque model. You will appreciate it the first time you try to remove a stubborn lug nut!! 3/8" drive.... You can go for a standard, or a palm/compact version. The standard gives you more leverage, the palm gets into tighter areas. Seriously, though..... Unless you plan on doing a lot of auto mechanic work, you might find that the 3/8" impacts get little use.
Get a good 110V circular saw and maybe a good 110V saw-saw. They will beat a cordless on any extended project.
A decent, trigger actuated hot glue gun is always handy.
A good rolling tool-box, if you don't already have one.
