Named Akro Corkscrews?

Recommended Posts

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)

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.

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?

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!!
