Description

From the second season Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (Fred Wolf Films) episode "New York's Shiniest," this cel features April O'Neil in middle of a dash. In the episode's context April is hiding out in her apartment with the robot police officer prototype REX-1, whom she unintentionally "stole" from a warehouse while trying to get a scoop. When the security guards come knocking at her door, REX attempts to open it, but April hurries to stop him.

This is a painted acetate cel layered over background print. In this case, the the supplied background differs greatly the episode context, making it look like April is running through an alley. The actual episode obscures most of April's cel frames by placing her behind REX, but you get to see her in all her glory here.

These cels were sold framed in mats and protective plastic sleeves at various toy and department stores throughout the early 1990s under the "Animation Art" label. This cel was scanned outside the sealed plastic sleeve, providing better image quality. Included here are some screencaps showing the cel in its final form (as well as the immediate sequence) captured from around the 9 minute, 11 second mark of the VUDU digital copy.
