First, "better" is subjective.

The case for the TE2 is usually that the HIPS plastic allows for a sharper pull with more detail. I have an AP and the vocoder detail is definitely softer than a TE2. Other details may be, as well, but without a TE2 to compare to, it's harder for me to tell.

AP is, however, made out of sturdier white ABS plastic and doesn't need to be painted.

So...both have advantages and disadantages. It's up to you to weigh how you want to use it, how much effort you want to put into assembly, relative costsm and go from there. The FISD and starwarshelmets.com are great places to research more....
