I bought a frame from Roots Search for my boss since that OVA is an injoke between us. He keeps it in his office so I could probably get a picture of it to post. It's nothing too special, though.

I don't collect things physically unless they're rare and really cheap. I have a few cels but they're absorbed with dust, sitting on a stack of old greasy papers, because I don't take care of my stuff. Although most of the cels are from shows no one cares about, so it's all good. Personally I think cels are better suited for a museum. If I don't die prematurely, I'll try to give all my older stuff to museums/groups that preserve old things. Hopefully cel museums exist by then.

>>1116Late reply but thank you. My collection is kind of starting to hit a wall though. Unless you go convention hopping it seems like it's getting harder to find new ones. Ebay is a bit of dry well.

Where are you people finding these very neat key frame cels at?
Most of the ones ive seen for sale are the literal equivalent of scratchys arm.

>>1123The cel games are fucking tough if you’re not made of money. Finding a steal is a daily chore. Protip: Japanese auction sites are the best for underpriced cels if you can deal with the BS of using them.

Everyone talks about cels, but has anyone ever tried to collect backgrounds?

Like this one which is only 100 bucks.

>>1138I don't get how a humanoid cockroach is with garish neon colored hair is supposed to be sexy. Or why you'd want a war story that tries to be serious to look and sound like ecchi in the first place.

>>1138It's been awhile since I watched gunbuster. IIRC the series had lots of hot girls and no nudity right?
So he's got some secret forbidden nipples here?
No.1266
>>1265>no nudityLmao, there's tons of nudity. One of the main actions done while in the Gunbuster is ripping the clothing off the chest exposing the breasts of the main character all the time. I honestly can't remember why this was done though.
Hell, I think one of the LD even had a scene that showed Noriko's hairy bush.
No.1269
>>1266>I honestly can't remember why this was done though. It's at the very end, when Noriko has to rip out one of Gunbuster's engine cores to jump-start the Black Hole Bomb and save the human race. The shirt ripping was to approximate ripping Gunbuster's chest armor off. (and Gainax are all pervs)

>>1109Bumping thread since the one thing i see lacking is advice on actually buying them from people that have.
I have the urge and look around a few places that sell them but i see stuff like multiple people selling the same frames constantly.
No.2620
>>2618I think it's because a lot of the cels you see on YouTube are fake, Yahoo Auction is probably legit, and when Heritage were selling cels, those were definitely legit, but fuck Heritage, all my homies hate Heritage.
No.2630
>>2620Fakery is just something i just expect to encounter in this, since it aint hard to fake cel art(backgrounds might be a bit harder).
Honestly i was more inclined to believe its multiple people putting up some stores stock as their own listing, basically selling someone elses offline inventory with or without their consent. I saw this alot with laserdiscs from japan.
Feedback is useless imo.

>>1135Fun fact: The nipples are cropped out in the actual show. The cut was a loop so it featured a few times in the sequence.
Also, the two cels are a mismatched pair.
