"If so why not just printing out a screen cap on 
plastic paper ? instead of spending your money 
in cels ?"

if you can print out a screen cap on acetate that 
looks just as nice as cels, you've got to give me 
the model number of that printer! ^_-

on a more serious note, I think you are beginning 
to sound a little elitist, with all this talk 
of "pure" cel collecting...you are not showing 
respect for people's personal tastes. remember, 
this is a forum full of folks who collect 
everything from production cels to rilezu to 
sketches to shikishi to fanart. unless of course, 
you want to start a fire, which is the case a lot 
of the time on this forum.

I think a major point was brought up by Ms. Poe 
when she said that she's much rather spend less 
on a test hanken than tons of money on the real 
hanken. not everyone is rich and famous in this 
forum, in fact very few are. so let's say you 
really truly loved X the movie, and you knew you 
couldn't ever afford a "pure" hanken for $5000. 
if a test hanken showed up for $220, wouldn't you 
want to buy it as the only alternative you can 
ever afford? be honest.
