==Summary==

The Guardian-Vexor is a very limited version of the standard Gallente [[Vexor]]~~. It~~ was ~~originally released~~ as a ~~set~~ of ~~10 BPC's with~~ 5 ~~runs each~~ to the ~~winning team~~ of ~~an official tournament~~, ~~so only 50 Guardians can possibly exist~~, and ~~it's thought that several have already been~~ destroyed. Because of their ~~unsure~~ numbers and even more ~~unsure~~ whereabouts, the only really "confirmed" Guardian-Vexors belong to collectors such as Entity.

The Guardian-Vexor is a very limited version of the standard Gallente [[Vexor]] that was given as a prize in the Gallente Frontier Tours Limited event, an early lore event held in mid-2004. Fifty were given out in the form of 5-run blueprints, and five more were given out two weeks later in the form of one-run blueprints. The events consisted of hauling [[https://oldforums.eveonline.com/?a=topic&threadID=97274 a large amount of NPC items]] to the GFTL NPC corporation in Stacmon.

It is said that only ~20 remain in the game, and that Entity has 5 of them. One Guardian-Vexor was destroyed in December 2012, one was sold in 2013 for 85 billion ISK, and another was destroyed in 2014. Because of their uncertain numbers and even more uncertain whereabouts, the only really "confirmed" Guardian-Vexors belong to collectors such as Entity.
