I was inspired to do a slime collection after seeing a couple of great ones. I wanted to have them in beakers instead of some of the other containers I’ve seen like in the courtroom scene of GB2. I settled on [Ectoplasmic Residue](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/games/ghostbusters-the-video-game/ghosts/ectoplasmic-residue), Mood Slime, and [Black Slime](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/games/ghostbusters-the-video-game/ghosts/black-slime) and got my ingredients together. Here’s how it has come together initially: I mixed the soap, glitter, and highlighters together but the glitter all sank to the bottom. Mixing the green highlighter with green soap made it a lot darker than I wanted it. However the Ectoplasmic Residue and Mood Slime worked well under the black light: The labels were heavily inspired from: [http://www.gbfans.com/fans/props/other/3963/5/](http://www.gbfans.com/fans/props/other/3963/5/) As I mentioned, I wasn’t happy with how dark the Ectoplasmic Residue became, so I mixed a yellow highlighter with the remaining green soap and was happy with the result It also worked out better under the black light: I still have some alterations I want to make but wanted to post my progress. ---

Nice! I always love the highlighter-in-water trick. ---

The problem with letting someone else’s labels ‘inspire’ you is that when they have a typo, you get a typo! It should be spelled PSYCHO- Not PYSCHO-. Aside from that old peeve of mine, I’m tempted to try this highlighter trick now. And I was thinking earlier that someone needs to make the little scoop that Egon used to pour slime into the toaster.

Good catch Alex. I was so focused on the “Magnatheric” part, I didn’t even pay attention to be beginning. Spelling was never my strong suit. For a while on the [Black Slime](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/games/ghostbusters-the-video-game/ghosts/black-slime) label I had “Shador’s Island” instead of “Shandor”. Luckily I plan on printing the labels on adhesive paper and I can correct in other mistakes. ---

Anybody know what the top to the beaker of mood slime in the courtroom scene is? I’m looking for a way to cover my beakers and the best I can find are watch glasses. ---

To me it always looked like a wide petri dish base.
