I think they only made the one (#800).

There is a short fat jointed plug called the jointed striper pikie 6800 and its straight version the striper pikie 6900 (some of which used a surfster lip). There is the giant straight pikie 6000 which is a longer version of the striper pikie. All three are very fat plugs unlike the giant jointed.

Here are the 6800, 6000, and 800

Although people talk about using the giant jointed plug on the outer cape I don't think many guys fished them much. They are a pain to carry, hard to cast without conventional stuff, and their action is under-whelming (although the pull in surf might perk them up). I built some versions of the BM/Pichney clone but have not done well with them. Here are some of them.
