Love it! First Witch: When shall we three meet again?

Last night I decided to test my Plastic Fantastic DA 35mm 2.4 to see what it is like at night photography. This is becuase I am planning a shoot with it, on a clear night!
I am most pleased with the results,. Fair enough I have better lenses than this, but for what this lens cost - it's great!
Enough waffling..... here they are!

As you know I have been doing some work with a dirty word camera, while a great camera, I believe it not to be Pentax great. I have recently been playing with my K3 more, and as a result, I have fallen back in love with Pentax. It feels better, it looks better, the handling is hugely better, it takes (in my opinion) better photos - especially at night, and the build quality is massively better. So as a result of this, I have decided to rid the dirty word camera, and all it associated kit to part fund a K1.
But.... I am not sure if I should get a MkI or MkII. After reading some reviews, they seem to say the MkI is a better camera, is this accurate?
As for lenses.... I have some old glass that is all obviously FF, but I also have some newer ones like the Sigma EX DG 20mm, 50mm Macro & 105mm Macro and a 150-500mm, that I believe are also full frame?
Any advice would be most welcome!
Ian the night lurker, emperor of the dark, the fat phantom, the blob in the shadows..... ok I'll shut up now!
