Imperial Vs. WWII

Here's a few pro's for each.
WW1: nicer finish that involved more time, closer fit and finish, made in a time when a man's time was worth little, and they are older.
WW2: newer and possibly improved metalurgy making better lasting shooters, the alure of the Nazis with more collector interest. (There is just not as much facination with the first War to End all Wars).
Other factors include numbers produced, numbers surviving, etc.
In the end it all comes down to which one spins your crank the fastest. I like them all but the earlier ones seem to be easier on my eyes. Entirely personal.
Anyone with a strong opinion that one is so much better than the other either has tunnel vision or has way too much money intested in the models of their preference.
