Don't forget the Rattler. It's basically a small diameter Ultrastar if I remember right.

Speaking of the Gopher, I really rue trading mine. Although, I did trade it for a 1st run Ion (the blue and red ones) which I later sold for like $250 so I don't feel too bad about it.
Rattler has a bit rounder shoulder than a polecat, which is more ultrastar like, but it still has more similarities with a polecat. A true small(er) diameter ultrastar is the whitler.
When I started throwing Ions, I was throwing 3rd runs but wanted a light one. Marshall street had 1st runs (165g) in stock at a blow out 9.99. Loving the mold, and being unsure of how long the company would last... I bought 7. Stopped throwing the 1st runs when they hit about $50 a piece. Sold a few. I sold my last 3 for $250 thinking they would never be worth more... I was wrong oh well. Sold off all my 3rd runs for 40-60 a piece as well.
