Oden Posted December 2, 2018 Posted December 2, 2018 (edited) Seems like the new norm. Here is a Misa and Minmay Henken Cel that went for some pretty good money. https://page.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/b353362325 Edited December 2, 2018 by Oden Quote
jvmacross Posted December 2, 2018 Posted December 2, 2018 Not one of the most iconic of the magazine illustrations....Assuming it was legit....I would have expected that one to have gone high anyway..... You can still get the furoku calendar cheap though! https://page.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/t588129367 Quote
treker14 Posted February 25, 2019 Posted February 25, 2019 (edited) Here is my small collection of Macross cels; Misa (Macross), Milia (Macross 7) & Silvie & Istar (Macross II) Can you tell who my favorite character is? Edited February 26, 2019 by treker14 Quote
elrdf Posted February 26, 2019 Posted February 26, 2019 Does anyone know who purchased this a few years back on Ebay? Thanks! Quote
treker14 Posted February 26, 2019 Posted February 26, 2019 Does anyone know if they is a way to make a purchase off mercari.com They don’t accept proxy bids so I don’t know if anyone has made a purchase outside a proxy Quote
Fortress_Maximus Posted February 26, 2019 Posted February 26, 2019 (edited) Nice cel treker14!! To wager a guess you favorite is a green haired alien? Check out Lum you might like her too. Edited February 26, 2019 by Fortress_Maximus Quote
ANTEATERNEO Posted February 27, 2019 Posted February 27, 2019 Hi there: I wonder if anyone there has seen the actual cel, or similar cel in the sequence that matches to this DYRL douga with Ming Mei singing . All help is much appreciated. Quote
Fortress_Maximus Posted February 27, 2019 Posted February 27, 2019 Cels of DYRL Minmay from that sequence exist. I had one and have seen many of them during the last 30 years for sale. One also sold last year but prices are increasing due to many flippers/scalper sellers. Quote
elrdf Posted February 27, 2019 Posted February 27, 2019 These are the closest that I see available.. https://asylum-anime.com/store/index.php/anime-cels/series-name-l-m/macross/macross-56-anime-cel-dyrl-movie-minmay-singing.html https://www.ebay.com/itm/MACROSS-MOVIE-ROBOTECH-LYNN-MINMAY-ANIME-PRODUCTION-CEL-6/401045340243?hash=item5d602a4053:g:rmUAAOSwZ1lWeZiA:rk:102:pf:0 Quote

treker14 Posted February 27, 2019 Posted February 27, 2019 (edited) I know they’re not Macross cels but I thought I’d also add my Mospeada & Robotech II: The Sentinels cels. Edited February 28, 2019 by treker14 Quote
Mokman Posted February 27, 2019 Posted February 27, 2019 Nice stuff treker14. Welcome, and thanks for sharing. Quote

treker14 Posted March 9, 2019 Posted March 9, 2019 (edited) Another Milia & my first Mylene. Still waiting for my Max to arrive. Has anyone seen any cels of Valkyries. Edited March 9, 2019 by treker14 Quote
Oden Posted March 10, 2019 Posted March 10, 2019 What does "Book" mean in anime cel terminology? I've a seen a few anime cels over the years that have this written at the top right corner but haven't yet found an explanation of its meaning. Here is one example I have. http://oden.rubberslug.com/gallery/inv_info.asp?ItemID=420143 Quote

Here is one example I have. http://oden.rubberslug.com/gallery/inv_info.asp?ItemID=420143 Nothing comes up on a cursory search. However, it might be an oblique reference to the correct English usage that Japanese speakers find easier to use than the correct terminology. Like how "cut" in the link means "shot", with 'cut' being used in the sense of 'where the film in a shot (sequence) is cut'. So, I'm tempted to guess that "book" is being used in the sense of 'a bookcover shot for the subsequent scene', or possibly even in the verb form (book a room). EDIT: It probably comes from the film term "bookends": http://kernvakckv.nl/film---terms-glossary.pdf Edited March 10, 2019 by sketchley Quote
Mokman Posted March 10, 2019 Posted March 10, 2019 Book cels are a stationary image on the screen, in contrast to other cels that are a sequence of images that produces motion on the screen. This is one of my Macross book cels. http://mokman.rubberslug.com/gallery/inv_info.asp?ItemID=121453 Quote
Mokman Posted March 10, 2019 Posted March 10, 2019 Here is another one of mine that actually says book on it. In the show the camera pans across it, or maybe it zooms in on it, I don't recall exactly, but the image itself doesn't change. http://mokman.rubberslug.com/gallery/inv_info.asp?ItemID=191859 Quote
Mokman Posted March 10, 2019 Posted March 10, 2019 (edited) Oden, I was just looking through your collection on Rubberslug and found a cel in your DYRL section that I think is actually a TV cel. It is your VF-1A cel. If I am not mistaken that is Ben's veritech just as it is starting to explode in the episode Bursting Point. Now that I look at it, I think the VF-1S Gerwalk cel is as well, from the end of the episode Force of Arms. Edited March 10, 2019 by Mokman Quote
Oden Posted March 11, 2019 Posted March 11, 2019 Thanks Mokman! If you see any other needed corrections and for that matter if you or others remember the specific scene / episode of a cel let me know. That type of info is alway welcome. Quote
Mokman Posted March 18, 2019 Posted March 18, 2019 Here is a recent Macross Plus addition. Its a character I didn't have previously and I was able to get it on the cheap so I figured why not. Its been a while since I've added anything else new. Quote
jvmacross Posted March 18, 2019 Posted March 18, 2019 (edited) Welcome to the Macross Plus Lucy Mcmillan Animation Cel Owners Club.... Edited March 18, 2019 by jvmacross Quote
jvmacross Posted March 20, 2019 Posted March 20, 2019 Can anyone help me identify this? Thanks! Are you trying to get a price so you can scalp this one too on ebay? Quote
elrdf Posted March 20, 2019 Posted March 20, 2019 Are you trying to get a price so you can scalp this one too on ebay? Uh, no. I'd like to keep it possibly or do a trade with someone. I'm just wondering where it's from. Quote
jvmacross Posted March 20, 2019 Posted March 20, 2019 Uh, no. I'd like to keep it possibly or do a trade with someone. I'm just wondering where it's from. So you basically bought it without knowing what it was? Have you not learned your lesson yet? Didn't you initially come on these boards with the same issue on some Macross cels you had bought that turned up to not be originals? Do you really want to be a part of the MW Cel collecting community...or do you just want to "pop in" each time you need help with selling, trading and scalping? Quote

I haven't purchased it yet but was considering. I want to be a part of the MW Cel collecting community. The fact that I listed some cels that I bought at a higher price to pay off some expensive ones doesn't make me a scalper. I do not do it as a business and I don't want to waste time arguing about it. I'm a HUGE Macross fan and love collecting these cels. I also like to do trades if someone likes a cel that I have and I like theirs. Anyways, I don't even know why I'm explaining myself, wow. If anyone can help me determine that piece I'd appreciate it. You won't see it go on ebay haha. Quote

Your actions speak louder than your words.....as I said...it seems you just come here when you need to siphon off some of our collected knowledge...which is fine if you were a contributing member...but then you only seem to use said knowledge for personal gain.... Quote
elrdf Posted March 20, 2019 Posted March 20, 2019 Nah, a cel that I wanted to verify a while back I was going to keep. When I got it it didn't seem authentic to me so I sent it back. If you have a question regarding a cel that you'd like to sell or trade and wanted to verify its authenticity or had a question would that be forbidden and considered for "personal gain"? If you're asking questions all day so that you can flip/scalp cels as a business that's not so cool. Quote
Mokman Posted March 20, 2019 Posted March 20, 2019 elrdf, it is one of the posters, if you want to call them that, from the Macross character "This is Animation" set. There is also a mecha based set. Here is the character set on ebay. https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F323578430725 Quote
