Which FM Junkers Ju-87 mould is best

For you Stuka fans out there...

Which FM mould of the Stuka do you prefer, A/B or later variants and why? (I am concerned with which mould renders the Stuka most accurately).

Is the main gear on both moulds (here ya go FVD!) mounted the same... with two exposed screw heads each? Any detail in the intakes, or just solidly blank?

Well, I've got this one. Not sure of the accuracy of the mold. Two exposed black screws on each main gear, a fifth exposed black screw in the middle. Lower intake has a grill look inside, upper just solidly blank. I love it .

I have six of these and prefer the 87D only b/c the seam lines are less evident. The detail on the air intakes is the same throughout each version.
