...these were hard as f%#@ to get a hold of. The blue one with the Yeti is slightly more "gettable." The penguins is damn near impossible (it took me 9 months of looking to finally get one!).
These are very, very sweet in real life with artwork by Shag.
If anyone has a line in to the last one (green one with the Bear), needless to say, I'm all over it.

Bottom of the Yeti board is even cooler than the top...

Here is my response on a PM conversation I was having with one of the forum bros about these boards. I just figured that the info is interesting as I have spent a lot of time trying to acquire the three boards from this set... 
*****************************************************
You have excellent taste Its even sweeter in real life. My plan was to ride it, but I liked the way it looked so much, especially alongside my skateboards, that it became a wall-hanger. Then, I started on my quest to find the other two. They are very, very hard to find.
So, on the Yeti, I bought it last summer and got it for just over $400 in an absolute steal. The Penguin, the ONLY one I have seen, was $575 on a Buy It Now just a few months ago. I jumped on that within minutes of the listings and would have gone at least $150-200 higher if I had to
I had a line in to a guy in Nova Scotia who had the Green one with the Bear. He wanted $700. I was going to go for it when he disclosed that while we were corresponding back and forth, he decided to use the board! I said no problem and for him to send me updated pitures and we'll take it from there. The board now had some dings and stuff. So, I dropped the offer down to $550. He was going to take that when he told me that he had ridden it some more! and now it had a gouge on top, ding on bottom, scratches, screwed up rail, etc. The dude was just a fruitcake. Eventually, that whole sale fell through.
So, now I continue to wait. One will show up eventually. I have found that these are very hard boards to come by as it is my understanding that only 100 were produced. I would guess 60 Yeti, 20 Penguin, 20 Bear. Personally, I have seen about 4 or 5 of the Yetis, one of the penguins (which I bought), and just that one Bear in Nova Scotia.
Good luck on your quest! I would say any deal under $600 is a great buy. They are probably worth somewhere in the $600-800 range in mint cond. The price will only go up as these get ridden into oblivion.
