FOIL Ugin is probably $55? FOIL Monastery Mentor is $55 also. Russian FOILs add a premium of what, 10X the value? The only problem I could foresee is finding a seller willing to spend $500 on a Monastery Mentor.

I wish my 4/4s with haste and first strike that acted as Goblin Warchiefs were better and didn't die to instants and overshadowed all other 4 drops in the format. And that they had evasion too, and some way to dodge wrath effects.

I'm torn!
Normally I say "Go for the real estate", but it really depends on whether the Cryptic or the Colonnade are reprinted in MM15.
On consideration, I'd probably take Pile B anyway, as it's all recently reprinted, and thus in a price nadir. Pile A can crash, Pile B really has nowhere to go but up.

As much as I would love Russian foils, they are a royal pain in the butt to get rid of simply because the price. I had a foil German reaper King in my binder FOREVER before it finally traded off.
I like B a lot, lot more here. The only real value in Pile A is the Mentor and exchanging that and a few smaller items for 5 shocklands and other relevant stuff is a very good trade on your part.

No sure if I should trade for the dual since I am still using the Pile A cards. Are show and tells hard to find?
Pile A, especially since the dual is MP.
I would much rather have a whole deck that I'm using than one card that's on the reserve list. Pile A for sure.
