I'm not kidding, I have proof here's a genuine cel from the original movie

Very odd that animation as late as 2004 is being hand-painted. Were also not 100% sure if Seasons 2-3 used digital ink and paint if this is the case for the movie, intact this maybe the reason why I notice a big difference in animation when comparing S3 and S4. This is scary and odd considering the movie looks digitally colored
 
No, it really didn't. It's obvious just from looking at it. This is some scam on Amazon and should be reported.

One easy way of telling a cel is fake, they almost never have their original backgrounds. Some have unofficial printed backgrounds just to look better, but they do not match the scene. If it's an exact match with cel and background, it's a fake.

Edit: I just reported it myself. We'll see what Amazon does.

it can be just a printed image





oh wait it is because on the SB Movie DVD there's a BTS clip showing part of the animation process.
I think they have footage of them doing the pencil drawings, which were still done on paper at that time. No footage of them using cels for final animation.
 
I saw that months ago and didn't exactly understand why did made a cel for a 2004 movie. But you never know.

Season 2-3, and the movie's animation really confuse me
 
I got a message back from Amazon saying that they can only remove it if I buy the item and see it's a scam first. Despite the fact that it's impossible for the item to exist, they won't even look into it any further unless I pay the $300.

The ironic thing is there's supposedly one left in stock
 
It seems like it's a collectors item. The description says there's a edition size of 100.
