jvmacross Posted February 1, 2017 Posted February 1, 2017 If it is a rough draft genga....I was thinking it would be for the Minmay face close-up from this scene of the DYRL film.... Quote
Fortress_Maximus Posted February 1, 2017 Posted February 1, 2017 Entirely plausible. Only question is do you want to bid on it? Quote
jvmacross Posted February 1, 2017 Posted February 1, 2017 LOL....yes, just waiting for the seller to drop his price a little more.... Quote
asianed Posted April 14, 2017 Posted April 14, 2017 I saw a bunch on a recent trip to Japan. For those who can make it, there's a tiny shop in the corner of Nakano Broadway on the top floor that has a decent collection. I almost walked out with one, but ended up putting the money elsewhere. Quote

Macross cels? Do you have the name of the shop or web address? Quote

It's one of the few storefronts on the top floor of Nakano Broadway (a shopping center) that isn't owned by Mandarake. I know they've been there for at least 6 years and has a huge pile of various cells and douga that you can dig through. It's physically located in one of the corners of the building and opens before anything else (around 10am?) so it shouldn't be difficult to find. It really is off by itself and is across from the Mandarake storefront that sells scripts and other production collectables. I don't know if they have a site or not, it doesn't seem like they'd be sophisticated enough to have a site (or a site that shows invsntory). Quote

Fortress_Maximus Posted May 18, 2017 Posted May 18, 2017 Welcome Bub! Hope you enjoy cel collecting it is a long journey. Quote
Fortress_Maximus Posted May 18, 2017 Posted May 18, 2017 Nothing yet. But I am sure something interesting will appear! How about you jv? Quote
jvmacross Posted May 18, 2017 Posted May 18, 2017 I picked up a douga....but I can't remember where I placed it....it'll come up eventually Quote
hal9000 Posted May 23, 2017 Posted May 23, 2017 Well I joined the ranks, I got a Maylen Cell a few months ago. Very cheep has black ink stains, But it was me dipping my toe in the pool. And now I have another to share Claudia. I found this one at Acen in a cell binder labeled gundam. And I just had to have it. So I thought I would share my two pieces of Macross history. Unfortunately she is quite stuck to the paper. Quote
jvmacross Posted May 23, 2017 Posted May 23, 2017 Welcome to the Macross Cel, Genga, and Douga Club! Assume the position! Quote
hal9000 Posted May 23, 2017 Posted May 23, 2017 (edited) Ready... Edited May 23, 2017 by hal9000 Quote
jvmacross Posted May 23, 2017 Posted May 23, 2017 Exactly! That'll get you 3 nice cels...or 2 really nice cels...or one cel that'll have you questioning your long-term commitment to cel collecting..... Quote
Fortress_Maximus Posted May 23, 2017 Posted May 23, 2017 Welcome hal9000! Prepare to sell your soul, and quite possibly your future retirement away. Quote

I leafed through the inventory and this guy has been selling on Yahoo Japan auctions for quite some time. Other than that he has no website or anything in English. His Cels are way overpriced and I wouldn't be surprised if he has a partner selling on eBay.... Luckily I strolled over to Mandarake and got a nice piece there for only 5k yen lol..... will update on that separately.... Quote
jvmacross Posted May 29, 2017 Posted May 29, 2017 Sounds like you may have found urbantreasurehunter Quote
Fortress_Maximus Posted May 30, 2017 Posted May 30, 2017 Possibly but pretty sure urbantreasurehunterjapan does not have a brick and mortar. Still it would be good to know if juice14 could post some pics of the store and the name of the business too. Quote
jvmacross Posted May 30, 2017 Posted May 30, 2017 Was responding to juice's assertion of a possible eBay partner.... Quote
Fortress_Maximus Posted May 31, 2017 Posted May 31, 2017 Ok. Looking forward to some pics from juice14. Thanks! Quote
Fortress_Maximus Posted June 3, 2017 Posted June 3, 2017 Just to reconnect with a previous cel storage and preservation discussion here are some archival boxes for your consideration. http://lodima.org/archival-materials/archival-boxes/ Quote
