As noted - these Test Cels ARE PART of the 
production process. 
They are not repros or 
If I had the real Hanken Mono I would have no 
issue with someone possessing test a cel.

Being for or against these test cels has 
basically nothing to do with the fact that they 
exist.

If you had the Hanken for $3,000 and I paid $400 
for the production genga/sketches you'd still 
HAVE the Hanken.  I'd have something other than 
the Hanken but which still has been produced by 
the same studio and same artists for the purpose 
of making that Hanken and most importantly is NOT 
some mindless copy.

The test cels were made with a purpose. I can 
fully accept that you as a collector see less 
value in them - But, it does not change the fact 
that the cels are
1) legitimate pre-production items
2) some people see value in them
3) some people - not neccessarily you - will pay 
decent $ for them

I don;t even see this as a fancel debate. This is 
akin to bagging douga collectors because they 
have not got the onscreen cel.

The only point which raised my hackles - which 
may or may not been posted by you was to cast 
annon aspersions at a cel dealer. I feel that if 
you are going to do something like that - do it 
upfront. If that post wasn't you - (since there 
were sooo many annon posts then you have my 
apologies).
