I personally like the X-men Classics versions of Beast and Nightcrawler over the Marvel Legends ones. Nightcrawler has that neat light up gimmick that doesn't effect the articulation at all, and while Beastie has that Metal Gear inspired outfit, it actually works pretty well for him, as I can honestly see him wearing something like that for a mission, plus the classic variant comes with the fold up chest laptop that screams 90's Beast. I have the cat version of that figure personally (which I might be in the minority, but is my favorite overall look Beast has had over the years) and it's one of my favorite X-men figures to date.
