Fantom has COSM in MFX section. V-Synth has COSM in both MFX and also as polyphonic processors synthesis section. On MFX level, both V-Synth and Fantom have a similar set of effects, but I find Fantoms have some more interesting stuff like Infinite Phaser and Lo-Fi compressor. But V-Synth is the only one to have the amazing Sideband Filters and other stuff in the synth engine.

what do you think, is the fantom as good as kontakt?

Can't really tell you... Fantoms are more hands-on samplers, Kontakt is more advanced but also more complex to use. You can pack your XR with some stuff and then go to a gig without a computer, this is an advantage. It's hard to compare hardware with software, you gotta use the best suitable selections of both

@fs1r: I know what you mean, everything from NI sounds like WOW!!! I love it too! But you need a fukcing computer to make music with it Waiting for the first NI-Synth...
COSM effects play for me in the same direction, just try it.
