1 and 4 look like they are based on Britain's WW2 British infantry. Repainted? 3 looks like a home cast - I have a cruder home cast version of this but will check other sources. Will check number 2
No.4 Crescent postwar issue of WW2 type British infantry. Crescent postwar also did a similar figure to 3 and 4, fairly standard poses for several manufacturers. Kneeling Number 4 has a clever flat patch on its knee for stability which Britains did not.
The solider, the heavier they are, the more likely they are to be home cast / copies. Crescent and Britain's would generally have been hollowcast although some other lead free metals were experimented with postwar for overseas export.
Maybe knowing the size and material (plastic or metal) would help

Thanks Mark, they are all solid, heavy figures by the way.
