Looks great, but $600 doesn't feel right for this.

Wow, I really want this.

Would have been even cooler if he was somewhat transparent. Maybe semi-transparent plastic with a light paint highlight? He is a blob of slime afterall, I don't think Slimer was ever opaque except for in the cartoons.

Translucent plastic is far more brittle than opaque plastic, and at that size, with those molds, you risk some major QC issues. Foam is far more durable and will be less prone to the breakage issues you'd see with a translucent material.

Also, this a supposed to be a representation of the prop used in the film, not a representation of the on-screen version.
