How many production cels do you own?

Post by Keropi »

This is a simple poll about how many production cels we have. The "Internet Guide to Anime Cels" conducted a poll asking how many cels we had back in ?1999-?2000. That was a long time ago. I'm curious how the results of another poll would turn out today.

Let me just state that I prefer cel QUALITY over cel QUANTITY. :P

I prefer quality too, but somehow I ended up with a lot of cels. I have three levels of series that I collect from and they are at three price levels.
When I can't find something nice from one of the primary series, I can usually find a nice cel that I can afford from a minor series without breaking the bank. Since I enjoy the search I find that a wide variety of series keeps me going. Except for X I don't have much more than 20 of any one series, so most of them are pretty nice, but twenty times ten gets to be a large number :wink:

If this included sketches, I'd be in the 1000+ mark. Cels are far more expensive though and my little pocket book (and my very picky taste) can handle so much ya know! :)

I see what happened. The poll options didn't allow me to list an option for over 450. X|

I wish the poll would have restricted me from inputting another poll option instead of allowing me to and then finding out later that the option wouldn't show up in the poll.

Okay let's just assume that the last choice in the poll is:

301 cels or more

and let's go from there.

I used to have well over 200, but I've sold so many. I'm only keeping and collecting MUST HAVE cels... But...it's really hard to stick to that. lol

I'm getting to the point where I don't own the collection, it owns me. I need to weed out the less "must haves". X|

Right around 250. Probably will eventually break the 300 mark, but at the
rate that I've been buying recently, will be years.

Wah I'm below 20 but I only need 2 more cels to break the 20-mark and one of those I recently won on YHJ and the other I'll probably place an order for in 5 minutes, hehe. But since I don't have them yet I had to go with the below 20 option. :l

Ah well, quality over quantity! :D

I have very few cels (now I have as much as layouts and BGs....). I am pretty picky to buy a cel... So I have been waiting for good cels to show up (especailly Kenshin from the last OVA....). Is there anyone who can take my offer ?? :D Hint hint :P
