My collection is finally complete! 😁        Looks like I might start watching "Scrapped Princess" again this holiday season. Thankyou, it was truly a fun little hunt I had going on for a short while. lol The cool shit is, it barely even made a dent to fucking pocket change. I bought an empty box of volume 5 separately from some collector on craigslist, who just kept the shit around all these years. Where they had already opened the two figures out of the package when they originally bought the shit. The DVD didn't work anymore due to it being cracked and the dude only had the Raquel figure from this set left. So I managed to take it off their hands almost for a complete fucking steal. lol Turned around and sold the Raquel figure to a local used book store for store credit, instantly turned that credit around to buy a used fucking copy of the Volume 5 DVD, where that shit looked brand new, and for even less than what I paid for a fucking empty box. Then found an unopened figure for the set, still sealed in its plastic case, for less than what I paid for the DVD and the empty box combined. lol For this shit to be so fucking rare, I got creative and managed to get my hands on the shit for less than any of the other BANDAI Entertainment™ Limited Edition volume release of the shit, that I had previously bought this month. lol |

Damn. I Honestly Had the Entire set of those very same Scrapri Deluxe DVD Editions since New. In Fact; I Still have the Full DVD Set... in a Custom Slipcase i Made from one of the Oversize Boxes that these Editions were sold in. However; i Gave away all the Figures/Pair of Vinyl Statues Years Ago... Being that i had felt they had Weird Proportions and Weakish Facial Sculpts. |

| Got the first Manga volumes of happy sugar life and gakkougurashi used super cheap, like 3 dollars each. I didn't buy the rest of the series though coz they were normal priced lol |

So I MAY or may not have gone a lil overboard this Christmas (I got a few other thingsbut they aren’t anime related, and I got a bunch of other cels, but I already posted them all on cel hub)    My most prized cel to date (This cost me over $500 😭) |

| @RetroCagliostro $500 is a lot how much do the cel things usually go for? |
The value of anime cels is weird and the shit can vary wildly depending on what someone’s willing to fucking pay. Back when I was visiting Japan in the 2000s, I saw "Agent Aika" cels at Mandarake going for anywhere between fucking 5,000 yen up to 150,000 yen, depending on the scene. Any cel where a character was flashing their panties in the series? Obviously that shit was valued way higher. lol These days, just looking on even online sites like even fucking eBay, you can find extremely mundane Cel scenes from the original "Agent Aika" OVA, "trying" to be sold or auctioned off for up to 2,000–5,000. USDs (not even showing off panty lol). Where that type of thing would almost be worthless to someone who doesn't even collect the shit. lol Since RetroCagliostro actually paid $500 for that cel, that they shared, that’s what the shit is at least worth. |

Azulmagia88 said: I see. Those things seem to attract some niche collectors not that that's a bad thing. Yeah azul described it a lot better than I could. If the cel is from a popular production, or just of a great shot of a character like mine, expect $1000-$100,000. They’re cool, I love collecting animation cels, and I’m glad I got myself one that looks this nice, but now I’ll stick to some more obscure productions since the most expensive they can be is $50 lol |

| Finally got rod tv collectors set for under 100 dollars and the only problem is the first dvd looks like someone had molested it with their fingers or something many times. Hopefully it works after cleaning it.  |

Managed to snag an sealed copy of "Kiddy Grade" [Limited Edition] Peacekeeper release that came with not only a collectable Artbox, but with the Limited Edition "Kiddy Grade" Ballcap. One cool thing about this release is that the sealed copy of volume one seems to also comes with the 1st set of the Limited Edition Collection Cards. Which I previously missing out on back in early 2004.   The "Kiddy Grade" Ballcap is nice because the last one I had got completely faded so I threw the shit out a while back.  This last image is just flexing my current Season One "Kiddy Grade" collection, just for the fuck of it. lol |
