  1. Yours Looks like a Vacor De Mexico marble :: All the bumble bees I know of no matter the manufacturer are Yellow Based w/ black. Marble king bumble bees : There can be some slight variation. Peltier Bumble bee
  2. The biggest one closest to the camera looks to be an agate (mineral sphere) marble. The yellow base w/ black looks like an Akro corkscrew. Individual or no more than 4 at a time with multiple views of each side will make for a more accurate I.D. The picture itself is great, well focused etc. Oh and by the way "Welcome to Marble Connection"
  3. "Duh" I already posted a pic of it, here's the link & a pic, now I don't have to rummage through a pile "O" mibs, it's a lot oranger in brighter light. There are one or two smaller scorpions next to the large one in the other pix on the same link which have much redder swirls than the large one, still not positive what to call yours ????

  4. I have a scorpion @ 1 27/32nds more orange than red, closer to what you have than the factory pictures below. The swirls resemble your OP more closely also, I'll dig it out and snap a pic if I think of it later.
  5. Well, I agree w/ Vacor but not sure of the name Maybe it's an off color Scorpion ??
  6. Agree w/ Vacor, is the base opaque or transparent purple ??
  7. Yes it's an Akro Superman but due to the apparent condition I'm afraid there's not much value if any ??

Named by Chuck G. in 2011 I believe ?? The Salamander has been around a while VVHTF
  9. It is the official collectors name, don't ask me who named it 🦎 nor do I know the story ??
  10. No pontil, 100% machine made, OP is Foreign, Imperial IMO
  11. No horsehair, no ox
  12. Canned hot flavored "Rotten sardines" I was in the Hospital within 2 hours after eating them getting my stomach pumped. Severe seafood poisoning. Mmm, Mm violently lip smackin good.

    Help 1

    The one on the (R) in the first pic Looks like what's called a "Blood & Bones" ?? It might just be the shading in the pic??
