Banpresto Ultraman stuff

Is this stuff worth getting? They're all pretty big figures at like ~13" tall. Vinyl.

Particularly I was thinking of the X-Plus Belial vs. the Banpresto Belial. Both are similar sizes, but way different in price. X-Plus Belial is around $200 while the Banpresto Belial is around like $40. The X-Plus obviously has more detail. I figure I probably only need 1 big vinyl Belial figure. Even though the Banpresto is just another $40, I'd rather not spend it if it's not worth it. I'm just looking for the single coolest representation of the character. Sadly neither companies made a Kaiser Belial with the cape :P

Here's a comparison for people who aren't familiar with these:

Not the best pictures, but you get the point.

I've heard nothing but good things about the Banpresto Ultraman figures. It's a line that's well worth collecting.

I have a Banpresto King Joe and it looks fantastic. Got it for 25.00 at an Anime convention, well worth the money.
