2 Yonex rackets to compare

I need some opinions on 2 Yonex tennis rackets:
Yonex MP Tour 5 (27.5" & 98 size)
Yonex RD Ti 70 Oversize Long (27.5" length & 105 size)

I own a Yonex Tour 5 and I have an opportunity to pick up the other Yonex. How similar/disimilar are the 2 rackets?

I know the RD Ti 70 Oversize Long is discontinued but I have an opportunity to buy a brand new one that has never been used and I'm intrigued by the specs of the racket. The specs make me believe that it's very similar to the Tour 5 except that the head size is just a bit larger. Any comments on the rackets would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

you should track down the Yonex Ti-70 98" version...it is more similar to the Tour-5. I have played a lot with both of them...they are both excellent; I give the edge to the TI-70 overall for its superior feel and control...edge to the Tour-5 for spin and power and serving. THe OS version of the Ti-70 I've never tried but if it palys anything like the 98" version, it's probably a great racquet as well (although too big-headed for my taste_)
