Data East Simpsons: Original Cooling Towers...or..."Pinball Party"-Styled Towers?

The towers on my (Data East) Simpsons aren't 100% (but close), and I was thinking about replacing them with the (red) "Pinball Party" type of towers.

Would you consider that a visual upgrade or downgrade?

I would probably stick with the original (red) but the grey (pinball party) might be cool.
 
Neither color is the correct shape, unfortunately. The grey ones look closer to the original show, however.
 
I have them on my Simpsons and I really like them, to me they look better than the originals.
 
The original ones were shorter, and I prefer their look better if I'm being honest. The new ones just look a little too tall for the space. On TSPP they look great.

If you've never had the older style (the original shape, not just the red color), you'd probably not care about the thinner profile of the TSPP style.
 
Looking at the pics in that eBay auction, I like the overall look of the Pinball Party towers a bit better than the old ones, but I'm thinking Jar is right...they do seem to be a lil' too tall.
