The first one was sold to me as a CB punk rocker. The body is a blue'ish green. Sorry for the not so clear pics.

And obviously this one isn't open. So ID is not possible at this time. However was sold to me as a blue agave, but really it looked like a RPE with speckles on the body and skirt. Will update once it opens more.

Maybe someone can direct me to a good pic(s) of a blue agave so I can look closer myself.

I have 4 different morphs that came in a shipment of agaves at my lfs. I have the ones you are describing and some that look like seductions and two others that look like the normal blue agaves. It's babies may not look the same as the polyp you have.
 
The third "agave" polyp is the slowest opening. Was open a little more yesterday, so hopefully not too much longer and I will make sure to post new pics.

The first one does resemble that of a clementine, which I also have and have kept in the past, but the body isn't purple, it is a blue/green combo, and the skirt is more reddish orange than the solid orange of the Clem. I know the pics aren't great, they look too blue through the iPhone camera, which is all I have. I don't use much white light either, so that doesn't help. It is much easier to see certain colors in person, so I will try my best to describe them to the in person eye as well.

One thing I've noticed from Google pics and even CB's eBay pages, is his PR's have a green center, not reddish orange. I mean don't get me wrong, this polyp is a real looker IMO, but I don't believe at this point they are what they were sold to me as. No big deal at all, I just don't wana misrepresent the original and the name.

1st pic isn't punk rocker, looks more like gatorades due to the orange centers
2nd pic looks close to pink zippers, don't know what pink lady zoas are supposed to look like
3rd pic could be blue agave, mine went from awesom looking to red people eaters with white spots :/ freaking morphing!!
 
I've never heard of pink ladies either. It's just what they were called upon buying them. I don't believe the others are pink zippers, as the source had those and I've had my eyes on that morph for sometime. They don't look bright enough and the shirts don't look right to me.

Either way, they are very nice and healthy though :)
 
^^^ that's what i think now that a couple folks suggested that here and there.
