Chad G. Posted September 22, 2020 Report Share Posted September 22, 2020 (edited) I think this to be an old Akro hero ? Just guessing, I may be way off on this one, Kind of a weird design that's why I had kept it, what's your opinion on the I.D. ?? The heavy lashe's made me think Akro, obscure for sure.

Steph Posted September 22, 2020 Report Share Posted September 22, 2020 I don't know. With the green looking like that base glass and it being covered in a layer of white-ish glass, I don't recognize that as an Akro pattern. Keeping mind open about Akro. Considering Vitro. And considering that it could be something else altogether. I wouldn't particularly think "old" Akro, because I would expect the older ones to fall more consistently into Akro's standard patch patterns.

Chad G. Posted September 22, 2020 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2020 Don't feel like the lone ranger, I've been stumped for some time on this one, I'll post some different angle's. This marble is also highly uv. just adding to the mystery. The curve look's like a half done royal, I give. HEEEELLP !!

Chad G. Posted September 25, 2020 Author Report Share Posted September 25, 2020 The general consensus is for Akro, but I'll wait for someone else to weigh in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'llhavethat1 Posted September 26, 2020 Report Share Posted September 26, 2020 I've seen similar colors on a run of Akro's leading up to oxblood, and I don't want to be the guy continually asking what it looks like backlit (ie: is it a green base?)

Chad G. Posted September 26, 2020 Author Report Share Posted September 26, 2020 No I never seen one like this before, I know I kept a lot of off the wall mibs. what looks to be the be green is a kind of turquoise colored pair of ribbons that flair and thin out on the sides like a patch, hardly any penetration @ all. The uv. portion is the peachy white creamy base which the entire mib is comprised of except for the green ribbons on the outside the entire marble is uv. Looks to me like a messed up eyeball, the uv. glow even show's under the green, so I take it to be thin even the ribbons. Posted it on the other forum, a unanimous Akro vote, I agree 100%, even this pattern is similar to that of the green one on the other thread, both bogglers. ( "eye" can't envision a production run of these, can you ?? ) Again, should have stuck with my first intuition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wvrons Posted September 27, 2020 Report Share Posted September 27, 2020 I see Akro but I would not call it a Hero. Master would be my second choice. Those cut lines and the brushed thin colors look Master. But those eye lashes sure look Akro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chad G. Posted September 27, 2020 Author Report Share Posted September 27, 2020 I posted it on the other site also Ron, General consensus there is also Akro, I see Akro w/ some Master like trait's, this one had me thinkin for a long time, "Thanks for droppin in" always appreciated.
