Sometimes you just got to fight for the things 
you love. Although no blood was shed in the 
pursuit of my latest baby, part of it (the 
nonmatching background) came down to bidding 
blows! The cel itself was a total toss up when 
Animaxis actually let both me and a friend order 
it at the same time. I thought all was lost when 
his order number came before mine, as well as his 
confirmation email, but it turns out I had 
ordered it exactly one second before him! HA! Ha-
HA! (Hey, what's a little battle of the reflexes 
and dodgy server dodging between friends?)

Appropriately enough, the prize was a really cool 
FX cel from Battle Athletes!
