The homunculus is an incredibly interesting feature at high power in large aperture scopes, but in smaller scopes is pretty ho-hum IMHO. NGC 3372 lacks the interesting contrast in colour cf M42 as well.

I thought it was a given when we put our vote that we thought what Nebula is the most SPECTACULAR, I didn't think that we had to use the word to get our point across.
I still think that the Eta Carina is the most spectacular Nebula.
The Tarantula is also spectacular for all the reasons in NYX's post
