Sideshow is much better in quality/price. Unless you have money to burn, keep away from Medi Maul.

I think the Medi Maul is far superior to the SS version. The sculpt and paint is not even comparable IMO. Photographed correctly it can look real. The only downside with it is the neck.

Undoubtly the headsculpt is better (including expression and paintjob) but the rest is not superior at all...and surely is not worth the price.
Medi maul is superior
End of story. (maybe not worth the price, but superior)

I'd say get the Sideshow one because all your other figures are Sideshow (it'll fit right in to your collection) and because it's cheaper.

I'd have to agree with medi's superior sculpt and scale. Although there are great points for both.
Value SS
Lightsaber SS
Robes SS
Cloak SS
Belt SS
Girth SS
Durability SS
Stand SS
Head sculpt MT
Paint apps MT
Boots MT
Hands MT
Scale MT
Some have even gone as far as to use the best SS parts for the Medi body and head. That one is far superior all around.
The best thing to do is buy both and sell the one you don't like.

Oh. I forgot.
Durability SS
Hopefully they use the newer more durable bodies for these because the original Medi bodies were very brittle. Almost model like.

Adding the belt to SSC and with the partial exception of the scale (Medi has good height but is too thin) I agree with you.

Yes. Agreed. Forgot about the belt.
Very true. I would never spend that kind of money on a Medicom figure, maybe HT, but I HAD to choose between the SS and the Medicom, Then I choose Medicom.
End of story, you can all go home now.
the only thing I don't like about the medi is the belt and how thin it is. might add some padding to him if I get him.
And since TPM Obi wan is coming with a light up lightsaber, I kinda figure it would look ok with this medi Maul since it has the light up sabers as well and they'd probably compliment each other well, too. I'm just thinking of getting an SS SW stand to put Maul on. I hate those clear stands. they work but they suck

Going with the SS one, I am not happy about the size. I'm sure both as has been pointed out has their up's and downs. The person I bought a crap load of Droids from had one that he was going to put on eBay. I made a off the wall offer and he took it. It's the ex one, plus the droids that they made for him.
I'm thinking of eating the fee on the Vader 2.0 and going with SS also.
I want to say thank you for everyone that has posted about this. So far other then Cody (I got a bad one). I have nothing to say bad about SS.

??????????????????????
this re-release of Maul is supposed to have light up lightsabers
The pictures say the exact opposite...
Yeah i know i am confused.
CSC, AlterEgo, BBTS say that the lightsaber lights up but yea SS doesn't say anything about it lighting up in the specs so 
If it does light up I'll buy it. If not, then it's not worth that much money
I agree. if it's that price w/o a light up feature, then they're not getting my monies.
