Cel Entangled in Rope Original Animation Herculoids
The Herculoids battled to defend their planet from menaces on * Amzot/Quasar and from outer space. All of the Herculoids displayed * Human-level intelligence - employing precision teamwork and complex * tactics - as well as emotions, and Zandor and Tara both * displayed a working knowledge of complex alien technologies as well as * the ability to pilot interstellar spacecraft—but essentially, Zandor, * Tara, Dorno, and the Herculoids were fighting to keep Amzot/Quasar a * technology-free, primitive planet. This is further * indicated by the pseudo-barbarian outfits of Zandor, Tara, and Dorno * and the fact that technology was used mainly by the various villains, * but rarely if ever by the heroes. Although the "speech" of their * companions was limited and repetitive, Zandor, Tara * and Dorno demonstrated that Gloop and Gleep, at least, had a * comprehensive mode of communication, and that they could at least * understand and interpret this language. * * * * **The cel is at least 35 years old. * * Stupid Gloop...  Always getting tangled in this darn rope... Stay away me, stay away... * * Original Animation CelSize of * cel: 10 1/2" x 12 1/2"Excellent * condition * This is * an original hand-painted cel set-up * used in the production of an episode of "Herculoids." Each one-of-a-kind * set-up represents a slight change in position of the characters. When * individually photographed and projected in rapid succession, * the images * appear to move. To create production cels, the original animator's * drawing is * transferred onto an acetate cel (by hand-inking and/or photo copying). * The cel is then hand-painted on the reverse side.  * * The cel is ready to be matted and * framed.  The notations are located at the bottom of * the cel.  * *
