This is not a "real cel", like you're looking
for. These cels (sold by Hyperenity, who makes
"collectables" from copyrighted images for
just about every popular 80's show) are just
fan cels with a fancier name.
I was struck, too, but how much that "full
Unicorn" cel looked like a real cel... they even
wrote "production" numbers on it and stuck a
pencil sketch behind it to make it look more
real. (The shading isn't quite right, though,
to look EXACTLY like a real cel...)
So, no... these are not production cels or
"real cels"... these are fancels... hence the
bid price under $10... :P I don't usually have
a problem with fancels (some of them look REALLY
cool, esp. if they're original poses/costumes,
etc and are well done) but when the seller puts
a "production" number on it and sticks a
sketch behind it to make it almost exactly
imitate the real thing (and then makes the
phrasing misleading unless you read really
closely and know what you're looking for...????
Disturbing...
