Here is the info I found on collagen types and that's when I decided that I need type 1 & III instead of II.
COLLAGEN TYPE I & III:Scientific studies show that more than 90% of the collagen found in the body is Collagen Type I & III. The protein composition consists of nineteen amino acids responsible for growth, maintenance and repair of the body with unusually high proportions of the amino acids glycine and proline, as well as hydroxyproline and hydroxylysine, all found in skin and muscle.
COLLAGEN TYPE II :Collagen Type II is the major component of hyaline joint cartilage. The protein content is between 65% to 70% (less than Type I and III) and naturally occurring mucopolysaccharides (carbohydrates) 30% to 35 %. The mucopolysaccharides consists of Glucosamine, Chondroitin, and Hyaluronic Acid, the makeup of synovial fluid and sugar aminos required to make collagen type II cells.
Obviously, I'm not trying to fix my joints and it seems like boobies' connective tissue would probably benefit more form type I & III.
