From looking at pictures, the Black Rainbow just looks to be a flat black color parallel, like the gold; while the Black Galactic is a diffractor pretty much the same as last year's 1/1 charcoal galactic. I could be wrong though, these things are tough to gauge in pics.

blast. why make two 1/1 black cards, and then have one be shiny and one not? why not just make different colors??? all rhetorical questions, no responses needed :)

Definitely a bigger fan of the 2014 set. Passed on all the Goldschmidt's I've seen, not a big fan of the design on the base or the insert set I see him in. Might pick up one or two, but mostly avoiding this for now.

They've got a few upgrades. I think more downgrades though, but probably a handful of sidesteps. Not a bad product though. Had this been released first I would have been happy. I don't feel they came close to building on what was successful in '14 as is evident by their pattern and color choices. Once I have more than a couple minutes of free time, I'll type out my full thoughts on the product.

I'm not doing the full run again though this year though. It's not fair to the other McGwire horders to steal all that fun two years in a row. It really was one of the most enjoyable chases! :)

OKC, OK
[MENTION=1983]onionring9[/MENTION] has a better rainbow if he'll post it up here, but I'm done with my non 1/1s except for the Red Auto. Lost out on the non-auto 1/1 diffractor, but I think there is a 2nd pattern one, like the reds.

Nice guys! I wish McGwire had more cards but seems he didn't sign much again this year. Someone told me there was a rumored stripe red but I don't think that's true. Looks like this is it for the non 1/1's.

I lied.
