Ride on--good observation! Marble--On!!

Dave? Is there a Dave registered on this board? Sorry man—no disrespect to you whatsoever---you are just not here!!! Marble—On!!

I will answer the OP question--yes. Who made them?--I do not know. I would call them slags however--just a weird cool group. Marble--On!!

I love the name--Dave--Dave--Dave--Daves not here--LOL. Welcome "davesnothere" keep on coming back and sharing what you have to shows us. There really are no boring marbles--just a few great ones that we all wish that we had---the search continues😁. (If I lost you all--Cheech and Chong from years past---very funny.) Your marbles look like a newer version of Marble Kings--not the latest--just a newer than the oldest. I appreciate all opinions and look forward to them all. Marble--On!!!

There are a lot of marbles made by a variety of companies with bubbles in the matrix. Peltier is known for them. When the Japenese/ asian marble makers invaded the USA markets they were using recycled glass in the clear matrix. This explains the lack of crystal clear glass which is a batch recipe(made from a glass recipe), or very fine cullet glass that was purchased by marble makers in the USA from a variety of other glass makers. Marble—On!!

Your first image shows what may be a "coke bottle" colored glass. This is a tip-off for asian made marbles. Hope this helps. Marble--On!!

I think that you fell into a bunch of European machine made marbles. Nice group! Marble--On!!

These are machine made marbles Edward--no canes invloved here. The top image shows a nice one--European I think. Marble--On!!

These could be European Edward. Size always matters in marble ID’s. Also known as “European Sparklers” or “French Sparklers”. Lets see what some other folks have to say. All opinions are appreciated and welcomed. Marble—On!!

This is not a "Furnace". It is a WVS that needs more opinions. Marble--On!!

You pulled an Art Fire😁. That size and the depth of the folds??? I will call it a Ravenswood until the Ravens swoop down and call it different. I really do suck at WVS ID. Marble--On!!

only from Fire--Love it. Marble--On!!

Nice one--the green is very nice! Nice images as well!! Marble--On!!

Agreed--Lets hear some more. Marble--on!!

Who would challenge that statement? Not me--good eye cheese! Marble--On!!

Cats are still a hard ID for me---I still try and I do stick my neck out once in awhile. The way that the vanes are seperated in the middle would point me towards Heaton USA---or a variety of asian mades. I will lean more towards Asian made here because the Heatons that I have carry a deeper orange on the outer rim of the veins. Vacor does not count in here imho--Vacor makes some of the most colorful/best cats ever made. I appreciate all opinions and respect them all. Marble--On!!

Nice find! They come very big and they come very small and everything in between. Catch them when you can! Marble--On!!

This one is a Vacor my marble collecting friend. It is more than likely a "Black Panther". Marble—On!!

Times two with Chicago---nice marbles!! Marble--On!!

I am right there with Al. Pelt Bananas can get a bit weird. These are out of a larger bag and I am using lower light to show what we will all agree on, crystal clear base glass and very few bubbles as opposed to most Peltiers or any “cat eyes” for that matter—some of the nicest crystal glass found in production type marbles ever. Those transparent green ones are a hard ID as they look very close to some Asian made. (How did that Muddy get into the image? ---yep, the addiction continues, this is a new one) Marble—On!!

Well worth the effort---for sure!! Nice marble Fire--good job Kimbernugs!! Marble--On!!

Times two on all of the above---nice Veli! Marble--On!!

Nice--is that a Blue Raven? The Popeye is not too shabby either. Marble--On!!

Agreed--times are slow right now and a little cutness perks anyone up! Me included. Marble--On!!

Any Heaton packaging is rare to find. I suggest that it did make it to retail and more will be found thanks to your images Cheese. I just love this stuff--really I do!! Marble--On!!
