Ric Posted May 20, 2021 Report Share Posted May 20, 2021 Those are John Deere colors but I think JDs are NLRs and this is a Rainbo so . . .? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chad G. Posted May 21, 2021 Report Share Posted May 21, 2021 Yours is a Peltier NLR Girl Scout, the construction is a bit off but I'd still call it an NLR =opaque green base w/ opaque yellow ribbons. John Deere = opaque yellow base w/ transparent green ribbons NLR John Deere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted May 21, 2021 Report Share Posted May 21, 2021 I thought NLRs had six Ribbons? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted May 21, 2021 Report Share Posted May 21, 2021 I apparently had the base and stripes backwards on the JD but wouldn't Tommy's be a Lemon Lime if it's an NLR? I'm thinking the names have changed since I quit paying attention to the Pelts, and FWIW, I have never seen a yellow JD tractor with green stripes.

Chad G. Posted May 21, 2021 Report Share Posted May 21, 2021 Confusing yes I know Ric, I have some with an apparent 5 or 6 ribbons, I agree Tommy's does have 4 ribbons, & the I.D.'s change so much I can barely keep up. Used to call the one I have pictured a lemon lime now a translucent base w/ yellow ribbons !! So many new names, I'm a pelt freak & can barely keep up. A picture from the Pelt. I.D. website of a lemon lime. A new one on me as well Ric, I wasn't aware until mere months ago !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted May 21, 2021 Report Share Posted May 21, 2021 What do they call the green base NLRs with yellow stripes now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted May 21, 2021 Report Share Posted May 21, 2021 Here's one with no transparency, as far as I can tell (also from the Pelt ID site) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chad G. Posted May 21, 2021 Report Share Posted May 21, 2021 Welcome to the land of confusion Ric, we had the same discussion over the same marble on AAM & was decided to be a Girl Scout ?? We wee all lost as to the true I.D. for a Girl Scout for a while. A very good discussion, this is how marbles get named I guess ?? They're so close in I.D. it's ridiculous, I just collect what I like & play repeat as to what I see I guess ?? See what I mean, the lemon lime you have a pic of has 4 ribbons not 6, I feel the same as you Ric, maybe someday it'll all get ironed out !!

Ric Posted May 21, 2021 Report Share Posted May 21, 2021 I'll just try to remember that a Pelt Girl Scout is the exact opposite of a Marble King Girl Scout, or have that changed that name too . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ric Posted May 21, 2021 Report Share Posted May 21, 2021 😁 I'm starting a petition to swap the names of the Pelt John Deeres and Lemon Limes. Does anyone think that doesn't make sense? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chad G. Posted May 21, 2021 Report Share Posted May 21, 2021 I guess Tommy's is a variant, to which I have one just like it & yes it is the same as MK base wise, A copy of Chucks post. Seems this is a highly disputed subject no matter where you go !! Post with many thanks from AAM, I'll include the link to the thread as well. Guess I'm wrong & right depending if you count the variants or not ?? I'd join the protest Ric but it would lead to the worlds longest thread.
