So there is the Vherokior Probe, Sarum and Tash-Murkon Magnates, Sukuuvestaa Heron, and the Inner Zone Shipping Imicus.
What happened to them?
Are they just removed ships that didn't get their stats removed and are still on the variations tab of the exploration ships?

Every ship in EVE dies. Not every ship in EVE truly lives...

I am currently away, traveling through time and will be returning last week.

There's a vague chance they exist on the market somewhere if you check evecentral, but like a lot of special editions of ships they'll fade always as they're popped or lost to inactive accounts

I own all but one of those. They were plentiful at one point but have since gone scarce; Don't expect to see them sold on the market for anything resembling a reasonable price.

If I remember correctly those were gifts from CCP for an anniversary or some other special event.

They have the same stats as the T1 exploration ship, but they had a special paint job. Like someone else said they are likely to have gotten popped or they're sitting around on inactive accounts.

From what I recall, the ships were converted to skins.

I know I have all four skins sitting around anyhow, and I think that's how I got them.

I think you're right. I remember having the ships at one point in time, but I just looked through my swag and saw the skins instead.

Now that I'm thinking about it I think this was around the same time they started doing skins. But I guess that does make me wonder why they kept the ships if they were converted into skins instead.

Oh man! Didn't even realize that set got converted until now. Thought they were still sitting in the back of one of my hangars.
