5 WW2 British Soldiers (Brandenburg Commandos)
WW2 King Tiger Tank
WW2 Tiger Tank
WW2 Panther Tank
WW2 Centurian II Tank
WW2 Sd.Kfz. 251 Half Track Vehicle

Those aren't gaming pieces. They look like 20mm Italieri or Tamiya diorama figures and tanks (1/72).
Their worth? Probably 30-40 bucks as they're mostly primed/damaged/used. Depends on if any of that stuff is by some odd/oop/no longer available manufacturer that collectors oo and ahh over. If not, it's just swap meet fodder.

Yep, some 1/72nd scale junk unfortunatley. Thats a Sherman by the way, not a Centurian.
Unbuilt and unpainted they'd not be worth much, as they are, Im afraid their pretty much worthless.

the Tiger on the Right and the Half-track might be FoW models, but everything else is just toys.
FoW models are made out of Resin and Pewter(the Tiger should be quite heavy) the Half-tracks are generally Resin with plastic tracks(older models might have pewter ones)
the Soldiers are totally the wrong scale for FoW.

The vehicles are all either Dragon pre-paints (the King Tiger) or Matchbox/Revell plastic kits.
All are in 1/72 or 1/76th, so out of scale for FOW.
The figures are mainly the old Airfix WW1 Germans by the look of the poses.
Some of the Dragon pre-paints will resale on Ebay for £5-10 depending on type. The rest I would just lump on Ebay for 99p and it will sell to someone for something.

Thats for the "dont give these to your children" crowd. Hobbyist certainly arent going to refer to their models as toys, but They are still "toy soldiers" if you think about it.

My name is Big P... and I play with toy soldiers.
Ok, glorified and detailled ones, but still toys to me... Any hobby item is a 'toy' to me as its playtime not work involved! Same as my 360 is a toy...

The infantry are not WW2 but Airfix (or reboxed by H&T) WW1 Germans. The spike has been trimmed off the pickelhaube.
The vehicles look like a mix of manufacturer (hanomag, Panther, King Tiger, Sherman and Tiger 1)
As such they and the vehicles are generic and belong to no one game.
