Green Ghost (aka Slimer) Hand Puppet

Since this is turning out to be a week of Slimer, I figured that I would continue it.

I was able to score a really sweet little Slimer puppet. He didn't come in the box but that kinda makes him cooler. He was loved at one point by someone who grew up.

I enjoy this little guy because he's just quality and fun. He fits nicely on your hand and is easily moveable. He seems like something that I would have loved to have as a kid and reminds me of when I was in kindergarten and our teacher would read us a story with a puppet. He is TOTALLY capable of doing that and perhaps when I have kids, he will be employed into that line of work.

I highly recommend this puppet for anyone who is a collector or just wants to get their kids into Ghostbusters. He was fairly cheap as well albeit kind of a rare find. He is often overlooked by collectors.

What is kinda odd about this guy is that there appears to have been two of them made at one point. So  I am not sure if he is a rip off from China or if he was later on produced. At any rate, he is a cool piece to have in my collection as he has purpose.
