Wow...you seem to be paying quite a large amount 
for Heero cels. I managed to get a nice, open-
eyed pan cel of Heero from episode three (right 
after falling from the building) that's too big 
to fit into regular celbooks for $66. I sold him 
to another person because I needed money for that 
exact same amount. I dunno where you're lookin', 
but $500 for a regular Heero cel? I think you're 
being jipped, my friend. You can see the cel I 
was talking about at Mark's Cel Gallery, in the 
webring. He's the one I sold it to ^_^

As for the fact that cels sold, as we were 
saying, yes, of course there are a few willing to 
pay that much. BTW, I was referring to the ones 
that were sitting there, not the ones that 
sold...I did notice some had sold. But I just got 
an OP cel from another series for $20 (it's an OP 
cel of Honou from Mosquiton...putting on me 
webpage right now ^_^), and my Tennimon OP cel 
was $65 (from Taro, to boot), and so it's obvious 
that they're taking advantage of crazy GW fans 
willing to pay those ridiculous prices. You can't 
even see Heero's face, and I guess I've become 
jaded, because as much as I love OP cels, they 
don't seem extra special to me anymore. I 
love 'em to death, but after seeing them 
everywhere I don't feel like they're the talk of 
the town. Certainly, cool to have, but not for 
that price. Did YOU buy any of the OP cels? Go 
back and look at the prices for their OP cels 
they got earlier on, only about a month 
ago...much cheaper. Yes, I know it's only of the 
mechs, but they only range at about $300. They've 
been inflating prices like mad recently. Just 
because I don't collect exclusively from GW 
doesn't mean I don't know a thing about the cels 
^_^ With the release of GW in America, of course 
cel prices are inevitably going to go up, but 
watching cel prices jump this much in only a 
year? Simply ludicrous. And sitting here and 
saying it's average, and simply folding to those 
cel prices, only prompts them to raise prices 
more. Most likely those last few cels will sit 
until GW prices soar more and someone decides 
it's a good deal. Let's face it, GW is a plot-
less show made simply as a commercial beast (why 
do you think the Gundams have so many different 
stages and forms? For Bandai to make as many of 
those nifty little models as possible. Go check 
your tapes, folks...Bandai practically owns the 
show)...and it seems to be fulfilling it's 
purpose.

Misha-chan, who's been waiting for a good cel of 
Duo to come along since forever. Try snagging a 
cel of him at a decent price nowadays...
