- Today you are looking at a production cel from the Beast Wars anime series.
- Beast Wars II: Super Life-Form Transformers is a 1998 Japanese Transformers anime series, spawning a movie and a toyline. It was broadcast on TV Tokyo from April 1998 to January 1999, and was the first Transformers anime to be produced by Nihon Ad Systems and animated by the studio Ashi Productions. The series was preceded by Beast Wars: Transformers, and was followed by Super Life-Form Transformers: Beast Wars Neo. The series has a much lighter tone and is aimed more towards children, whereas the more accessible Beast Wars was intended for a wider age range. The anime uses conventional animation rather than the CGI of its predecessor.Super Life-Form Transformers: Beast Wars is a 1999 Japanese Transformers television animated series and toy line, and a sequel to Beast Wars II. It was produced by NAS, TV Tokyo, and Ashi Productions. Hozumi Gōda reprised his role as Lio Convoy from Beast Wars II whenever he appeared in this series. Each episode runs for 30 minutes and it was broadcast in standard 4:3 as this was aired in 1999.

Frequently Asked Questions:
Why does this cel / production drawing not have a certificate of authenticity?
- The reason why many pieces do not have certificates of authenticity is because they are not official studio releases. Often times cels and production drawings are gifted to animators that worked on the project. Even more often, cels and production drawings are rescued from the trash by animators or people that stumble upon them. Despite the piles of production drawings and cels that get created, unless there is an official release by the studio, most of the market is dominated by pieces that have no certificates of authenticity, because they enter the market through inauthentic means.
- Luckily, the animation art market is fairly niche, and counterfeiting animation cels and production art almost never occurs. It is also difficult to counterfeit production art, given that cels and production drawings will show their age quite clearly. In addition, the quality of art on a cel or production drawing will usually have all the signatures of being produced by a studio. Extremely detailed scene matching artwork, properly formatted animator's notes, movement annotations, and complex cel layouts are all hallmarks of authentic pieces. The general consensus is that it is too difficult to try to create convincing counterfeits. We have firm confidence here at Hunter Animation Gallery in our ability to provide only authentic production art, but if you have any questions about any piece, please send them our way.
- In many cases, production art does have damage. Although damage ( which comes in the form of bends, folds, warping, rippling, small rips, discoloration, ink spots, and production drawings stuck to cels ) is perhaps less than desirable, it is also quite common, and part of the nature of production art. Often times Cels are left to sit on top of each other for years, and are left in unfavorable conditions. This leads to minor damage being prevalent in the majority of animation art you will see. The most undamaged art usually comes from official studio releases, when the art was stored properly with the intention of public releases. However, even in cases such as that, the animation process is such a haphazard and fast paced thing, that you will often find pieces that are cut apart and reassembled by the studio. If you have any questions, or require any further photos of the pieces before purchasing, please send us a message.
