Definitely the Hasey! I have the same kit and might even consider it in this GB.
Moulding and quality looks ace. I recommend the Aires resin cockpit for it too!
There's one left where i got it from...

Ages ago I built a Hasegawa Apache in 1/72. It was a great kit and went together very well. The Hasegawa would be my choice too.
