Not meaning to hijack this thread, but anyone know anything about these 70mm film cell sets? On the face of it, this seems like a cool thing. These would probably be great shots to scan in.

I know that the X0 team has been using them for color reference.
I've been collecting them since they came out in 1995. They are one of the coolest pre-SE collector's items ever made, IMO. I have some from each film- mostly from SW, quite a few from ESB and only several of them from ROTJ which didn't seem to have as long of a run. The packaging differed for each film. The ROTJ ones came in nice stand-up display boxes. I have close to 100 altogether, mostly obtained from eBay, and I once bought a set of them from a former Lucasfilm employee. Ebay is tricky because the sellers don't always attempt to photograph the cel itself (or will use a stock photo), and you end up buying 'mystery' cels which you may or may not end up liking. I'm pretty picky, so I prefer to buy cels from sellers who put good clear photos up.
