Welcome to Anime-Beta!


One of the most important thing to do when starting this hobby is to carefully craft a wishlist of specific scenes/characters you want to collect, which you've already done (you're light-years ahead of most new collectors).
Then budget a certain amount of money every month toward acquiring new production artwork. This will keep your collection focused and within budget. :wink:

I remember when I first started...it was so tempting to buy *everything* that is even remotely intriguing. :D :D

Welcome,

I hope enjoy your new hobby and as time goes on a lot of the friendships you can develop though Beta and RS.

You might find a few helpful pointers from this thread several of us helped put together for people new to the hobby.

1. A robot may not injure a human being, or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
2. A robot must obey the orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
3. A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.

ReiTheJelly- Good idea, I definitely should keep a budget set aside every month, w/ the way things are right now, I'd be broke everyday. Thanks!!

Hello and welcome to Anime Beta! I agree with ReiTheJelly - a wishilst really helps to keep you on track. And you WILL FIND your wishlist cels - so just be ready to spend the extra cash when they come along.
