Very nice Tommy, those are some good lookin' Akros for sure, I especially like that bottom right one, it looks like it has that deep red transparent glass 🤩

Here are a couple of 21/32" Prize Names

Thank you 👍🏼 yes that has a deep red mostly right under the base glass ...

You always post the killer Akro mibs thanks for showing them

It's Akro Friday again, share them all! 
Love seeing the Akros.
Here are two very similar Akros, but opposite patterns, one clockwise corkscrew, one counterclockwise corkscrew.

Both Red and Orange.jpg

Sweet box Art and some very nice-looking Ox ! 
In the fourth row down, the first on the left, that looks pretty unusual, is that black mixed in with the white?

This one is a bit unusual, it's the only one I have, I don't think I've seen any like it in any size. 

15/16"

1.  Red and the richest Yellow Prize Name 5/8"
2. The coolest Lime Green Prize Name (possibly a Special with a trace of dark inky Blue) 19/32"
3. Red Onyx 5/8"
4. Four Orange Spirals on a bubbly UV base 5/8" (bottom right marble is pretty beat up, but still cool imo)
5. Green on Orange Prize Name 19/32" (my favorite thing about this mib is that you can see the outline of the cork in the Orange glass)
6.  Green Onyx, a larger size at 3/4"
7.  Two Red and Brown on translucent base 15/16"

Happy Akro Friday y'all.

Nice Akros this week!

@Tommy Does the base glass on that corkscrew glow?

@akroorka That's a nice box - love all the oxblood. To me, it seems less common than the similar larger boxes (#250 & #300) What are your thoughts?

@disco005 Great marbles - the orange UV snakes are really cool. And that transparent green spiral is unusual - you must be able to spot a good Akro from a mile away.

Ric, Thanks for asking---

I think that these are all are in the mix as far as "common" goes--the #300 may be a harder find.

Bigger box--more likely to be damaged is my opinion.

I backfill these with Ox Patches which is correct to a point.

The OG boxes did include them like this--the others had just boring Patch types.

These boxes are hard to find with the original marbles and poutch--If I find one with the correct poutch--I bid.

Marble--On!!
