I have an Allstar 1209 and the 121 3m but not the other two. The allstar is lighter with a faster action than the 121 3m. If you want a faster action go with the graphite. As far as durability goes, the glass rod should be better but I can't really see the 1209 getting damaged easily. The glass rod would probably be a better a pencil popper rod due to it parabolic action. Not having the Tica I have no way to tell if you should or should not buy one of the others.
Hope this helps
