Why not just keep them all? They are small and when suddenly you have a Foveon urge you can fill it. They are small, don't take a lot of space and it is not like you are going to be able to sell them for a lot, so I would just keep them.
I second that.
I bought all three for less than 1,000 UKP. They live in an old camera bag my mother bought me thirty years ago when I felt camera bags were essential for the serious photographer - not now I hasten to add.
I'll keep them until for 1,000 UKP I can buy a camera (or several) that covers that focal length range and shoots to the image quality of the Foveon sensor with more user friendliness than the Merrills.
On a day to day basis I use either my E-M5 or my Ricoh GR. However, there are times when I need to up the quality to what I call medium format level. My bag of Merrills does that for me.
The cash tied up is modest when I consider I have just paid more than two thirds that on one new lens for the E-M5.
