Okay, so I put some lowball bids in last night
on a couple of universal century cels -- I
believe they're from either Gundam Z or ZZ.
Since I've both watched and collected only the
alternate-universe shows before, I know nothing
(absolute zero, jack over squat, nada, zip,
zilch, and so on) about the main storyline and
its characters.
Anyway, I won both cels for dirt-cheap, and NOW
I'm worried. Usually the u.c. stuff seems to go
fairly high, at least for good character or mech
shots. I know I shouldn't look a gift horse (or
a $30 cel) in the mouth, but I immediately
started stressing that these might be repros.
The auctions didn't say anything about repro,
limited, or duplication -- they both just
babelfished as "cancer/gun dam Z cell picture" --
and the seller is kerwein, who I've heard to be
very reputable. But I'm a bundle of nerves
right now anyway, so I figured I'd post the
auction pics here and ask.
If anyone happens to collect from these series,
could you please look at this scan and the one
in the following email, and tell me whether you
think they're production or repros? (And, for
that matter, whether they're from Z or ZZ?)
If they're repros, I just learned a $60 lesson
about checking with experts BEFORE I bid, heh.
But if they're real, I'm going to be a happy
little camper with her first two Gundam u.c.
cels...
Thanks in advance!
