it is really easy to tell if they are repro or
not.
1. they are totally perfect, and color tone is
different, from regular cels, if you have one on
your hand you will be able to tell for sure.
2. check studio pierrot site, they have the
images of the repro on their site, only a few
selected shots are used to be made of
reproduction cel, take a look at image below,
this is a reproduction cel, and I have seen some
Yu Yu Hakusho cels been sold on dealer site
without mention it was reproduction cel.
3. repro come in a frame, and cel has no sketch
or sequence #, some studio production cels also
come with green frame, but they have sketch and
sequence #.
4. I have saved all the images of the
reproduction cels made by studio pierrot, so if
you have a doubt on a cel in the future, just
post here, I will post the sample image of the
reproduction cel from studio pierrot`s web site.
again it is really not to hard to tell in person,
but sometimes it is kind of hard to tell by just
looking at the scan. |
