I'm growing Nectar (purchased seeds from Parkseeds.com) and WOW!! this is a beautiful great tasting cherry tomato.

I have 2 plants going - one in an EarthBox and another in a root pouch. The one in the EB has Cherry Bomb as it's mate.

Both plants are huge and Cherry Bomb adapted to the heat (in October) better, but now with the cool spell, Nectar has way more ripe fruit. It is really blowing Cherry Bomb away. It's like the cold spell told Nectar to ripen quickly.

One thing on CherryBomb, is that everyone I've eaten, I thought I should have waited longer where I NEVER thought that about Nectar. This has been going on about a month now.

I don't see why anyone would compare to SunGold. I'm growing 3 versions of SunGold - all F1.

SunGold
Golden Cherry - I think a little sweater, no splitting
SunOrange - larger SunGold with ZERO splitting

I also LOVE the Tokita Varieties so I will update the thread I started last year with my initial impressions.
