Century CLub 726 or PWC 773?

Have admired these engines for a while.  On a tight budget can possibly purchase one for starters and save for the other (interested in the entire PWC 13150 as well).  Which would you guys choose?

 Thanks, Jamie

I have the PWC 773. To me if your looking for something that is actually identical to the original the 13150 set or 773 can not be beat. The CC 726 just looks to fake. The flag staffs, large numbers and the wrong lettering on the tender. With the exception of the engineer figures, the PWC 773 with the 773W NYC tender looks and pretty much is identical to the original. Plus the paint and graphics look exceptional.
