Most of the items that I would never think of selling aren't online. I guess it's because I'm always afraid that I'll anger someone to the point that they'll try to vengefully outbid me on stuff that I want. It's happened before.

That's why, in some cases, I won't be updating with those items until the source runs dry.

But, enough bitterness for one post.... :P

Here's a few that I'm tickled pink to own.

frozentime - Your Nausicaa cels are beautiful. I just watched Nausicaa for the first time a couple days ago and its amazing you were able to find those moments from the film!

These are the four pieces from my collection that I will probably never sell:

Unico
http://likeabutterfly.rubberslug.com/ga ... mID=247333
This is a trimmed cel of Cheri hugging Unico after he carries her to the End of the Earth. I actually won this cel for less than $30. I never thought I would find a wishlist cel for such a low price.

http://likeabutterfly.rubberslug.com/ga ... mID=264187
This is from the climax where Unico finally defeats Lord Kuruku. Its completely flawless - no line fading whatsoever (unusual for Unico cels).

Scooby-Doo
http://likeabutterfly.rubberslug.com/ga ... mID=286242
An original drawing of the entire Gang by Iwao Takamoto, the creator of Scooby-Doo. The personality and expression Takamoto achieved in this sketch proves he was a master of character design.

Sonic the Hedgehog
http://likeabutterfly.rubberslug.com/ga ... mID=256956
This cel is the ULTIMATE for a Sonic SatAM fan. I have never been so excited/anxious about a wishlist find - I was a complete basket case until the auction ended. I had to have this cel no matter what the cost. I actually paid for it by selling my first car. I had just put it up for sale when this cel popped up - it wasn't a coincidence, it was destiny!

My top favourites & personal breath-taking away cels include the following. Each of the following represents a wish-list cel for me.
When I first received each of these cels, upon first physically holding & viewing them, I felt both a sense of achievement & accomplishment as I thought that I would never actually get to own a piece from that particular sequence.

Escaflowne: the two Hitomi endings:

&
http://celsphoenix.rubberslug.com/galle ... mID=290926
Both are gorgeous pieces of art in their right, but coming from my favourite series, make them all the more significant.

Nadesico: the introduction of the series' signature pose:

Nausicaa:

Honestly this is hard. LOL. For now there are 2 cels I would keep if I had to let go of everything... I'd try to pick between the two of them but I absolutely can't...

But I think next year this will change somewhat as I think I'll have a cel that will displace those two. But for now, it is what it is.

Okay..first...this is just for Rob: "meow"

Now onto my clutches! I have quite a few pieces that I hold dear, although I must be honest: what I hold dearest changes quite often. It would really have to depend upon the day/week/month/level of desperation.

Right now, this is what I'm holding dearest:

Renji

Gokudera:

Yohji:

And a vast many more...but for today, this is what I'm clutching onto!

I love all of my cels equally, although I have a small collection so it's easier to do that :)

The Game Gogeta has the distinction of being my first cel.

The Super-Saiyan 4 Gogeta Vs Omega Shenron doesn't really need explaining. Gogeta 4 was my ultimate wish cel since I started collecting and to find a cel of both characters in the same cel is incredibly rare.

It's not just the cel but the amount of time it took me to acquire it which makes it special.

The nude Goku is just too cool and I have never seen another of an adult Goku and I doubt I will. Such a fantastic shot :)

The cel of Goku and Kid Trunks was one I wanted for the longest time and didn't think Id get one.

The SS3 Goku is for me the best SS3 I could hope for, The centering of the character, the pose, the intense stare, the aura effect, the halo and on top of that it's from the first transformation episode and is a key cel. Just perfection.

The SS3 Goku vs Kid Buu is a great action shot from a fantastic fight that I always wanted.

The Vegeta OP is a true dream cel and one I never even considered getting.

I am happy with my collection. :D

Without even having to think about it, number one definitely springs to mind (I still can't believe that I was able to snag these - I sometimes open my cels books just to remind myself that they are still there) - these are all from Utena:

1) Child Anthy: http://kittyfire.rubberslug.com/gallery ... mID=296552

2) Child Utena: http://kittyfire.rubberslug.com/gallery ... mID=296553

3) Anthy with hair down: http://kittyfire.rubberslug.com/gallery ... mID=142734

4) Anthy Bank - 1st Season Sowrd pull: http://kittyfire.rubberslug.com/gallery ... mID=296555

Wow how did I totally miss this thread! O.O
So many lovelies!!
:love2
Hmm I guess I'm greedy, I would say all of em
are to die for LOL!
:crackup
But realistically I'm more attached to some
than others. The ones I truly love and care about I don't
have online because I don't want the emails/attention/offers.

Of the ones showing in the gallery, these would be my
holy-beavis-monkeys-I-cant-believe-I-own-this pieces
that would take exorbit amount of money to pry from me.
