Answer
Hi there Cedrick,

By far, this isn't my area of expertise, but my gut say 'Hulk' figures when I saw them - especially the bottom which, throwing out a guess, is Bruce Banner.

After some searching, this is what I've found:

The bottom one is Bruce Banner from the Incredible Hulk ( 1996 )line. He comes from the 'Savage Hulk - Transforming Action' package and came with a Hulk figure. Bruce fit into the back of the Hulk figure to 'transform' him. I believe it was made to coincide with 'The Incredible Hulk' an animated series that appeared about the same time.

The figure on the upper left of the photo looks like Apocalypse to me, which could make sense for the Hulk series.

The other figure, I can't tell you - just don't know enough to make a good judgment call.

Sorry it wasn't more help, but at least you have something to go on for further searches now :>
