Wow that's a tough choice. If your going to spend some big dollars I'd go for an Attack from Mars, or Monster Bash or the new Spiderman myself.

I think I'd pick the TOTAN if I had the choice of those 2. I love the music in it, and it's one of the most gorgeous looking games ever made IMO.

I'd go for the LOTR or TOTAN. Forget TOM altogether IMO. Enough Acronyms for ya? haha

If it came down to it and they were all in the same shape and near same price, I'd probably go for the LOTR just because of the modes and depth. I think TOTAN has better artwork by far, but LOTR is a better "playing" game, and really deep, so it's great for home use. Plus if your a fan of LOTR that's a huge plus too. I think TOTAN has the better resale value down the road, that may be something to think about as well...

TOM is overrated IMO, I think you made the right choice

I do like Theatre of Magic, don't get me wrong I'd just prefer a TOTAN myself. Like these guys said, any of those pins are great really.
