Here is some news and a question. . . ! !
My husband came back from work last night and
told me that he'd swung by a shop I go to on and
off here in Boston. He said *they have cels*.
Needless to say, I went to see for myself. . .
No one get too excited, because lo and behold,
there were a whole bunch of the cels that Usagi's
House sold at their sale. . . . And I spotted
cels from a number of other dealers we all
frequent - all marked up at least 75% over what
they had been on the sites (some more than that).
As soon as I saw that, I made sure not to name
any characters *I* was after even though the girl
at the counter was obviously trying to quiz me
for what I liked. ~_~
I was disappointed, but I looked through the rest
of the books and came across the genga you see
below. It was cheap and pretty but as I pointed
it out to pick it up, I saw it was labeled as
being from Lodoss. . . !!O_O!! I don't know
Lodoss at all. Never seen it, not a fan. But
there is only one character from Lodoss who I
know looks like this. . . If a Lodoss fan
confirms to me that this IS Deedlit, I have some
more news.
They have the rest of the genga to this short
sequence. (Two genga for each frame, I bought the
A1 pair, the rest are A2-A6End.) Prices vary, but
the whole bunch wouldn't barely hit what I pay
for an unmasked Larva cel. (I mean it, these
things aren't pricey.)
SO. . . If this is who I suspect it is, I'd be
happy to make some Lodoss fans very happy. I will
be in Boston again tomorrow with a friend. If
anyone would like details on the rest of the set,
or would like me to pick up some of the others, e-
mail me. I'm more than willing to pass them off
for cost, including this one, even though I did
sort of pick it up to keep. (Not being a fan, I
would kinda feel like a heel keeping it away from
a fan. ^_^ Especially if someone out there wants
the whole set of the genga.)
The only note on this is that since I am *not* a
fan, if you're going to ask me to pick up the
others, I need you to be very sure you want them.
Space in my cel books is at too high a premium
right now. ^_~
Feel free to reply here or to e-mail me
privately, I will monitor both until I leave
tomorrow - which will be until about 11:15am
Eastern US time.
(I should have scanned in the yellow genga first.
That one is actually prettier than this one,
although it doesn't show the sword. . . ^_^)
Many Sharp Smiles,
--Drac (why can't a *LARVA* fall into my lap?!?!?)
