If it's which to buy then it depends on what you want it for, your Budget, your preference in size.
Try telling us about what you think you'll be playing and your budget and we'll help you further :)

Do you want new or used? You can pick up an Invert Mini new for about £285 but a used Ego (10 or higher) will cost you probably around £320 - £400. If you are looking at Ego 9 or lower obviously less. I have seen Minis go used for £200 ish but you have to watch out for the gen, you want a gen 3 if poss.

Another thing to look at is whether you want a poppet or a spool marker the designs of the mini and the Ego. The mini being a spoolie will be slightly smoother whereas the egos bolt mechanism gives it a rougher feel in my opinion. I have shot both markers and much prefers the spoolies but i would buy an Ego over a mini. at the end of the Day the best thing to do is ask people nicely if you could have a quick shot with their marker, I can’t imagine most people would say no as long as your careful and replace the paint you use, trying them will give you a good idea of feel, weight and balance.

A plus on the ego is planet eclipse customer sevrive if its ever needed and thats before the performance of the marker... But the mini is also a solid marker in my opinion...

i have 2 friends that have these 2 guns and each love them for different reason my friend loves his ego because it is looks sexy and has never had a problem since he had it my other mate has a mini and loves it because its small and allows you to be able to took in more and be less of a target but he has had to put an on/off asa which set him back £60 and a new board because it was a gen 2 and was chomping balls but with them he has never had a problem but it is personal preference on which is better.
