Versus the Red Ribon Army! (cels from Dragon Ball episodes 30-78)

Silver

I finally got a cel of Silver Taisou! Thank you Ryo! I've been looking for a cel of him ever since I started collecting Dragon Ball cels. I lost out on a couple during Yahoo Japan auctions. This one is a great shot. I usually call him "The Shirtless Wonder" because he never wears a shirt. You gotta admit, it is a little weird to wear a coat without a shirt underneath.

Murasaki

Yay!! One of my major wishlist Dragon Ball characters is finally realized! I got a cel of Murasaki, the ninja from Muscle Tower. This is a great cel, too!

Goku

This is a Dragon Ball cel of Goku from Muscle Tower. Goku was fighting Murasaki, a ninja, to try to get to the top of the tower. The paper is stuck, but there are lots of cute sweat drops that are hard to see! Don't mess with the ninja, kid! ^_^

White Shogun

I think this is from near the end of the Muscle Tower story when Goku was about to defeat White Shogun. Yay! I have another Red Ribon Army commander!

Goku

This is a Dragon Ball cel of Goku. I don't know if it's even actually from the Red Ribon Army Era, but based on the design, that's my suspicion. If so, it's from before he confronts Tao Pai Pai. It came with the Tao Pai Pai cel from movie 3 (the greenish one). I got it from Nikaku Animart at A-kon 10.

Goku, Kuririn, and Bulma

This cel is from the tv series, in the underwater pirate's lair, before they have take off their clothes to swim. I'm just thrilled to have a cel of Kuririn in his monk outfit!!

Blue Shogun

I got an original Blue Shogun from Dragon Ball television series! ^_^ This is from when he was fighting Goku in the underwater pirates' lair. The things in his nose are tissues that he stuck in there to make his nose stop bleeding. He wasn't very happy about getting hit in the face. I got this cel from Anime-cel.com. (eps 52-53?)

Blue Shogun

Here's another neat Blue Shogun cel! It's probably from the same part of the series as the other shirtless Blue cel above, in the underwater pirates' lair, although it could be from a little later or earlier in the series. I got this cel from Anime Taro. (eps 52-59?)

Upa

How cute! This is Upa, Goku's friend that he met while he was fighting the Red Ribon Army. I got this cel from Kev's Cel Page. (eps 58-78?)

Violet

This is Violet, one of the only female members of the Red Ribon Army, who steals Goku's dragon ball and sucessfully delivers it to HQ. Leave it to a woman to do what a man can't. ^_^ Incidentally, in the anime, she was probably the smartest member of the Red Ribon Army. As soon as she realized that the Red Ribon Army was going to lose to Goku, she broke into the vault and made off with the gold and loot. She nearly ran into Yamucha and co. who were on their way to the Red Ribon Army HQ to help Goku, but as far as we know, she survived and probably lived out the rest of her life in style. ^_^ (eps 67)

Uranai Baba

I actually have no idea which part of the series this is from, since she doesn't change much over the course of the series. But, at last I have a cel of Uranai Baba. She would be sitting on her crystal ball. The cel is missing come paint, but I can't say too much since it was so inexpensive.

Yamucha

For a long time I thought this was from the 21st TB, but the more I look at it and the more I think about it, the more I think it's probably from one of the episodes when Yamucha was fighting in Baba's tournament vs. either the invisible man or the mummy man. The main reason I decided this was because of his missing bandana. Unfortunately for identification purposes, he wore the same outfit and hairstyle for both. Hmm. I got this cel from Kev's Cel Page. (eps 70-72?)

Cheering for Goku

I don't usually buy genga, as I prefer to have the cels, but this genga was too cool to pass up. This is a scene from Uranai Baba's place, when Goku was fighting. In this scene Kuririn is cheering Goku while the others watch. This was a pan cel, and the paper was originally taped together (the tape is gone now, but the ugly yellow memory of it remains). I especially love that so many characters are on this drawing (from left to right: Baba, Upa, Kuririn, Bulma, Yamucha, Puaru, and Kamesennin). It's so cool! I would almost kill for the cel, but I expect it's in a good home. This genga also came with a yellow correction sheet. Baba got completely redrawn, and significant changes were made to Bulma, Yamucha, and Kamesennin. (eps 75-76?)

Mai in a Giant Robot

Finally, having found the last Dragon Ball thanks to Baba, Goku confronts Pilaf and his henchmen in a giant robot. This is one of the bubble windows in the robot, and you can see Mai. (eps 77)

Pilaf in a Giant Robot

From the same robot as the cel above, this is one of the bubble windows where you can see Pilaf. I wonder if someday I might find Shu? That would be cool! (eps 77)

Commander Red

NEW! I finally have a cel of Commander Red. And it's a NICE cel! My Red Ribbon Army collection is nearly complete. I only need a few more characters, just a few more...
