Generally, GNW versions of ninjas outclass regular versions no matter what star level they are. The extra effects of the GNW ninjas - in our case, Kankuro's ignite - is too good to miss out on.

Plus, it makes him really useful in a team with Deidara.
The thing with GNW Kankuro is that he's really risky to use as a tank. I wouldn't use the puppet to tank unless I have absolutely no other way to tank. It's just too risky, and your GNW Kankuro can easily become useless in a team.
