  1. Agree on Asian - there are some messed up vanes and sometimes colors in those type of marbles.
  2. Look like slags, especially to newbies, but are Mega/Vacor.

    So they definitely made them and did not buy them from China or some other source?
  4. So there are 200+ marbles - average $30+ each. May not be bad if condition fits.

  6. Galen - probably since '99
  7. Your story similar to mine - bought several years ago from guy whose grandfather had it as a kid. Same types of marbles, too.
  8. I know most people don't collect metal on marbles (not including the metallic sheen on newer marbles) but I think everyone has one or two that cross into your collection of whatever you do collect. I'm posting some of the ones that I have collected over the years. In doing these group pics, you cannot always tell the metallic in the pics. I* just did flash pics to try and bring out what metallic I could. Some are a small piece, some stripes, some follow the swirls and others almost cover half the marble. BUt, you'll get the idea that it shows up on a wide variety of machine made marbles.
  9. I didn't think Hugh signed off on licensing any Wolverine games.....LOL.
  10. I noticed on Facebook that Mary Maslanka's husband Stan passed away recently. Prayers to the family.
  11. Ron had posted this back in Jan 2013 - Beri's AV
