    I need to check the slime that came with Toy Biz's first Venom figure, from the 1990 Marvel Super Heroes line. The slime came in a spider-shaped squirter. I bet it's all dried up too.

    The knock off slime sold in bubble gum machines smelled worse, and had an almost apple sauce like consistency. I remember getting a tongue-lashing for destroying an area rug with that stuff.

      Do you think if you messed with an open can say once a month it would help it in not hardening? You know, message it through your fingers, etc. I never had slime so I don't know.

        Nah, it's exposure to air that dries them out. The old containers just aren't as air tight as they used to be. If anybody has some good vintage Slime left they might want to store them in Tupperware instead of the vintage cans.
        You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...

          Mattel still has the formula....I remember seeing it at KB a year or so before they liquidated.....it was licensed to a secondary company (Just 4 Fun, or something) but it had a Mattel Copyright on it too, so it was real Slime.

          I imagine it won't be long that MOTUC fans will be demanding it, so keep an eye open....the Slime Pit was always a small playset, so it would be a likely candidate if they branch into that area.
