Not bad for US$26 including postage :D

an animation cell for $26? well I don't know much about animation cells, but I wouldn't pay $26 for one :dead:

[Skeletoncrew]

Oooohhh nice! I'm jealous! Thats a really great Shredder cell!

[Karpo_007]

[Azraelito]

Really? I would've thought that 26 bux would be a great price for one. Especially since a lot of cels used back then were cleaned after the ep had been made, and reused in another one. So there is only a small amount of them. The same thing happened to Transformers cels.

[PWDESAI]

not really, there are sooo many cels in existence, i got mine for $5 framed... But that is a nice shredder cel... :roll:

I might pay $26 for a TMNT cel, but only if it were a fairly large cel (or had lots of characters in it) *and* were on the correct background, so that it represents an actual frame from an episode. I'd estimate that at most 5% of TMNT cels come with the correct backgrounds.

what's so good about cels?

[PWDESAI]

there a part of the tv show, who doesn't want to own a part of the tv show. That is a nice cel of shredder btw, but it's just too expensive...

[The Lone Turtle]

:-? Wow, 5 bux framed! So did I get a bit screwed on this? It's just that I've seen Transformer cels gor for hundreds of dollars, I just figured TMNT would be the same :(

[Cherubae]

Actually that's a pretty good shot of the Shredder for $26 :) I've paid more then that before.

Speedracer's right; It's difficult to find cels that were placed on the correct background. I have one of Shredder and the fish that ate part of the Eye of Sarnoth on a "jungle" theme background (wrong!). I've got another one that I bought from an art gallery that is Shredder with Usagi Yojimbo's human caretaker tied up that's on the wrong background. He's not even tied to anything on the background yet the ropes indicate that he is.

I think it's a good price. I haven't seen very many good Shredder cels. I've only bought two production cels, and I've got no idea what episodes they came from. They both have very generic scenes.

[PWDESAI]

nah tmnt will probably never go for $200 i'm sad to say, unless this new show really kicks some shell. Yeah if you look around a bit, you most have a buy price, and there was this one seller getting rid of it framed for $5

[PWDESAI]

btw my cel that was $5 is an awesome pic of Leonardo from the cat woman from channel 6, wrong background though...
