collapsible V Full Tube dobs

Hi Guys
as per my previous thread i have decided on a Dob, now comes a choice.
i can get a 10" collapsible, or a 8" full tube (where i am buying from doesn't have a 10" full tube)

the collapsables need more collimation than solids i believe, so i would purchase a collimator as well.

if i buy the 8" i could afford to buy the Celestron Telescope Eyepiece & Filter Kit (the one in the aluminium case) where as with the 10" i'd need to make do for a while with the included eye pieces.

i'm also wondering about light leakage on the collapsable as well.. does much light get in when being used in a lit area? i would use mine a bit in my front yard and have a street light diagonly opposite my house
