SequoiaBET Posted January 25 Report Share Posted January 25 Do Akro prize names, specials, and corkscrews with certain color combos have names like seen with other companies? For example, in the pics below would you call them: -Liberty (red, white and blue) -Christmas tree (red on green) -Spiderman (red on blue) -Ruby Bee (red on yellow) -Bumble Bee (black on yellow) - Zebra (black on white) -Indian Blanket (red and yellow on black) 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melissa Posted January 25 Report Share Posted January 25 As far as I know, the only named one in your photos is the Indian blanket. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chad G. Posted January 25 Report Share Posted January 25 Ruby Bee Liberty Christmas Tree Spiderman Bumble Bee and Zebra are all Pelt names, some borrow and use them to describe Akro's which only adds to the name confusion. Agree W Melissa, I'd stick to the manufacturer name unless you have one like the Indian Blanket which is specific to Akro, just my opinion though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SequoiaBET Posted January 25 Author Report Share Posted January 25 Cool. Thanks for clarifying that for me. I will stick to using those names for Pelts, but not Akros. A related question if folks see this- how about for Marble King Marbles? I frequently see some of these names (and other Pelt names) used for them. Is that generally accepted or not? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al Oregon Posted January 25 Report Share Posted January 25 Marble King names are good. I actually think the MK names may have come before the Pelt names but that is just my thoughts. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

akroorka Posted January 27 Report Share Posted January 27 On 1/25/2026 at 9:37 PM, Chad G. said: Thus the confusion sets in I may be wrong here, but as I recall, Akro named more of their marbles than anyone else. ( Except for Vacor, which is a great marketing trick no doubt) The company names seem to stick quite well for me. The rest--well, they are collectors names that we all know and love Marble—On!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
