by no means the most beautiful, but its a piece of dragon ball z history :)

How does one go about buying cel's? Where can they be purchased? How can we authenticate a sell to be sure that a cel is genuine and not a forgery? So many questions perhaps someone could help me out.

Well, Cell's ego is so big that he will likely boast about his one-of-a-kind perfection. I don't really think you can escape that aspect of him and it's likely any "forgeries" you come across are his own Junior creations.

If you are looking into animation cels though, I'm sure there are others more qualified than myself to answer the question...

Thank you for pointing out that correction to me. I was just focusing on how oldboy88 spelled it and didn't think twice about it. :)

DBGT Vol 1? What is that exactly?
I'm guessing it's Funimation's first GT single, or some other company's distribution of said DVD. Since there were 5 "Lost Episodes" volumes that should come before it, that would technically make it number six, like he mentions.
Exactly. Kind of disappointed, because I've never seen GT and wanted to jump right in, but I purchased the GT Lost Episodes Box Set off of Amazon so I'll be caught up soon.

It has the same audio tracks as the Orange Bricks:
-Japanese
-English dub with Japanese music
-English dub with Faulconer music

Though worth noting is that some clean-up has been done to the Japanese audio.

Of course, it's worth noting that the music from Faulconer Productions doesn't even show up until... what, episode 68?... because they were dropped once FUNimation went back to do the "Ultimate Uncut Edition" of the first two "seasons".

Theoretically my most recent purchase is the Saikyo Jump issue with the "Episode of Bardock Super Kanzenban"... but... uhh... it still hasn't come in yet...

So I guess my most recent purchase is Battle of Z on both PS3 and Vita :problem: .

I thought Faulconer and his crew were not hired until episode 68 and then fired before the redub. Therefore, Faulconer never did episodes 1-67, not that the Faulconer group did 1-67 and then Funimation somehow systematically removed Faulconer from episodes 1-67.

That's true and that is what I said. Faulconer Productions stuff is 68 onwards, but on these sets which start at the beginning of the series, that group's stuff won't show up until 68 since they used someone else for the "Ultimate Uncut Edition".

You were saying the music was literally already put or "dropped" in and then was taken or "dropped" out

Ah yes, that's right. It had slipped my mind that the uncut redub had a different composer.
Nathan Johnson produced the US soundtrack for the uncut season 1 and 2, correct?
