Evangelion cels were never released by gainax to
the public. So finding ANY actual production cel
(not a repro mind you) of a main character is
going to be not only incredibly difficult, but it
isn't going to be very cheap either. I think I
heard a rumor about a collector paying 15 grand
at an auction in japan for a cel..but It was
probably just a rumor..
Ive seen the handpainted repros around and also
the machine made series here and there I wouldnt
but..they range from 50.00 to 150.00 depending on
who it is and where you find them..I wouldn't
mind a kaoru myself, but I tend to look at repros
as inferior to an actual production cel..only a
personal bias some repros are stunning..the magic
for me is that its THE EXACT cel used for the
scene that I loved so much..but thats another
topic all together..heh
Hope this was helpful
