I'm on a treasure hunt for cels from the Virtua Fighter anime. I aim to have one of each character from the games as they appeared in said games (or close enough).
The cells of I currently haven't purchased yet inude Pai, Shun, Wolf, Kage and Dural
If anyone has any ingormation on where I can purchase cels of these characters, letting me know would be appreciated.
For now, have a look at my collection. The cels of Sarah, Jacky and Lau are still in the mail. I'll reblog with pics, when they arrive.
Got some new cels with more coming in the mail.
My new cels are of Sarah, Jacky and Lau.
I'm currently waiting on cels of Pai, Kage, Shun and Wolf.
Actually, a ton of cels of Wolf. Also getting a few extra Akira cels.
Basically, I found some listings on Buyee. It's got listings directly from Japan, but it shout be noted that it's best used for ordering in bulk for the sake of saving on shipping.
Luckily, ordering in bulk is exactly what I did. Now I just gotta figure out what to do with all the extra Wolf and Akira cels. I think the obvious answer is to try to sell them. From what I've seen, though, these cells don't sell too easily. Other than that, I can use one or two as birthday gifts to whoever else I know is familiar with Virtua Fighter.

Here's a rundown of what I spent on the cels I got from Buyee.
I bought from two auctions, one containing two cels, the other, twelve. The two-pack has Kage and Shun, while the twelve pack has a bunch of Wolf and Akira (some Akiras from the intro! Keeping one!). That's a total of 14 cels.
$17.15 for Shun and Kage
$38.06 for the twelve pack of Akiras and Wolfs
$29.89 for shipping after package consolidation (consolidating packages has a fee, but I spent less money than I would have shipping the packages seperately)
Total money spent $85.10
Divide that by the 14 cels I'm getting and that's about $6.08 per cel that I've spent
I'll post pictures of newly-gotten cels as they arrive.
I only have one character left to collect. Who more fitting, than the boss character Dural?
Anyway, here's the new Sarah, Jacky and Lau cels.
Pai's here
