    Zombie green looks much more zombie! I'll definitely be ordering one for my other key once they are released into the wild.

    I like the zombie green too, reminds me of Slimer from Ghostbusters.

    Any looking in to the level of translucency that could be increased? Not sure what options this would be since the molded plastic is more than likely thicker than the Gameboy was. I would like it to be more translucent if possible. Sorry to be a pain (see below):

    Post# 279. They are shorter. Hence the name MINIMALIST.

    Depends on what you measure Longer with the key out, shorter with the key in. Skinnier regardless and about the same thickness.

    I know.. the OG gameboy is a little more transparent. I’ll see what I can do.

    Fob to fob.. they are the exact same length.(or darn close)Now if you remove the spare key, the OEM will be shorter. But there’s no way you can secure it anymore to a key ring.
    Width is where this fob shines, it’s much thinner and you can tell when in your pocket or handling it.

    From a few incidents it seems to be resistant but every scenario is different. Several have made it through the wash. I would Still recommend to take it apart and air dry.
