Which 2004 Bowman Chrome Parallel would you prefer?

[Y4NK335]

Which version of the card would you rather have?

I know the obvious choice for some may be the shorter printed Xfractor, but the appeal of the blue refractor is much nicer.

You can vote from a collector's standpoint, prospector's standpoint, etc. Just post which one and why if possible

Many people may not realize that the Xfractor is the 2nd best parallel to the gold refractor in 2004 because it has since been flip-flopped to the blue refractor.

I thought 2004 would be a good year to choose because of the fact it is appeal vs. scarcity.

NOTE: I am not talking about Bowman Chrome Draft, because they did not carry blue refractors.

Xfractor. I just usually like the look of Xfractors more than other refractors.

Blue Refractor.

If i recall correctly, neither of them were 'pack-pulled' since the xfractors were box toppers, and blues were pit.com exclusives.

After 2002, xfractors look nasty to me.

Blue is vurry purty.
