I apologize if this has been asked before...

I apologize if this has been asked before...
I haven't been on the boards in a while. I was just curious if anyone has collected all the bowman colors of a player you like and if you have pictures? I'm about half way done with Appel. Like I said, if this has been asked or done many times I apologize.

Yeah, the Appel low #'d are going to be pricey. From my experience it is often best to work backwards on these... Pulling or buying a superfractor/red and then going from there. The times I have tried to go the other direction, I have been frustrated with the low #'d not surfacing, or the price tag for the low #'d's seemed way too expensive after already having shelled out good $ for the others.

Sometimes I'll make my own "rainbow" and just do it for visual appeal. There is no "superfractor" color in the rainbow, so I'll go with just the ROY G. BIV colors, and maybe a /10 and an ex-fractor at each end. 2013 platinum is an awesome set to do this with because the entire background is a single color and really pops, and they have all the true "rainbow" colors, with all serial # counts being /25 or better.
PC Players: Alex Bregman and Christian Yelich. Looking for any and every I don't have.
Other Players: Luis Ortiz Jr., Rowdy Tellez, Touki Toussaint

No orange wave
I worked this one all over. The last card to get was the base refractor. I just kept checking around for all the others and did several player breaks as well.

Crappy pic but here's what a finest rainbow from 2014 looks like
