I have some photographs of the original Slimer being built from a old magazine from back in the day. I will have to dig it out and share the pix here.
From what i recall in the pix, the version shown was pretty much a latex body suit type of character..with arm holes so the performers' arms stuck through. Different expressions were sculpted ( probably for the different scenes) and the mouth may have also been moveable in some of these models.
I saved the mag as the 'Making of GBs' article had some awesome 'behind the scenes' pix. I will see if i can dig it out!
