    13/14 YG Rainbow

    I know this is collector's preference and there is no set rules for rainbows but I would like opinions.

    I want to complete the Morgan Rielly YG Rainbow.

    With the release of UD Series 2 it looks like there is a surprise acetate version of the YGs and also the POE Canvas.

    I have the YG, YG Exclusives, and YG HG. Now with Series 2 to complete the rainbow I need to add the Canvas YG, and the Acetate version, but is it also necessary to add the POE Canvas to complete the rainbow?

    Thanks in advance for your comments and opinions.

    I mean.... you've already said what I really think: Collect what you like :)

    Saying that, IMO - the term 'Rainbow' refers to getting each version of a card. Maybe there is 3 versions, maybe 18, or somewhere in between :)

    Canvas, cool looking cards, but they're boarderline 'parallels' at best. They don't have the same numbering, not everyone in the set gets one. That Reiley will have two of them - I mean, if I were you I'd probably want them... but how much of a parallel of the Series 1 card are they really? I don't know how to answer that.


    And what's the deal with the acetate Young Gungs? First I've heard of that.

    Very true that the Canvas may not be true parallels, but I have a hard time thinking that a YG rainbow wouldn't include it. Also the POE isn't even a YG so probably not really part of it.

    Dude pulled the Huberdeau Acetate YG in this thread.

    Looks sick!

    Those Acetates are beautiful!!! well done UD on that parallel instead of continuing to make clear cut inserts that have diminished to 5-10$ a card for a case hit lol.

    To the OP mr Jay, id say the POE as well. That way there is no debate and u can put it to bed :) (check out my show and tell thread i just posted as well ;). Timmy straightened up easily once i had it in hand

    Just posted in your thread. Very nice S&T!

    Yes those Acetate YGs are stunning! Is there any info on a print run?

    I wouldn't consider the POE as part of the rainbow as it isn't a YG.

    Sweet Moses...para-hell never ends. If it counts for you...then it counts. If it doesn't, then it doesn't. It's 100% up to you, not any of us.

    Is there a checklist anywhere of the YG acetates? I can't find one and am wondering if all the YG's got one or just a handful.

    Sidebar: Did not mean to sound aggressive if that is how I came off lol! All I meant is set your own rules for your collection. Not our rules, or that of the companies.
