If my choice of investment was between a set at retail price or one that had
already seen a 200% increase in value it wouldn't be a choice at all.

Great questions!
Though the idiom “apples and oranges” leaps to mind. In other words, they are
incompatible for any sort of honest comparison, imho.
-One is a newer set, the other older with 10 years of price settling.
-One was designed for display (UCS), the other for play.
-One's value is held in minifigures, the other's is not and never will.
“will be worth more in the future?”
How far into the future? Worth more as an asset? In which case: new-sealed, parted,
used, etc?
The only definitively answer I can offer, is to your “which one looks
better on display” question... which is in this case, is perhaps the apropos
question to ask yourself. Without a doubt it's the gorgeous Republic Gunship.
A stunning beauty! (like my ex-wife, though far less costly )

If sets, then use brickset. If parts, probably rebrickable. Although cataloguing
a parts collection can take a long time.

What are you buying for. Investment or building? If investment, buy a current
set.
If you are building, are you more prequel or original trilogy? Which set do
you like and which goes best in your display area with your current collection?
Go for that one. They are both good display sets, but with so many personal variables,
the better one depends in you.
