The Big Chuggus skin in Fortnite was first added in Chapter 2 Season 1 with the update v11.20 on November 22, 2019. The character was supposedly inspired by Bane, who is a prominent villain in the Batman franchise. Given his appearance, it seems that he is powered by Slurp Juice. This mysterious substance is what allows players to regenerate their shields on the battlefield.
Coming back to Big Chuggus, he is part of the Slurp Series in-game and is often called a "pay-to-lose" skin due to his bulky appearance. Nevertheless, he's still a very popular character in-game. He also has a LEGO model, which means you can use him while exploring new LEGO Fortnite seeds.
