Thinking about picking up some old Hammer Miniatures I found on a Marketplace, but I'm not entirely sure if it's worth the $30, given all of the work, and I don't know outside of the handful of ork/s what models they aree. I'm also not sure what all of the models are made of, and what questions I should ask the seller. Can anyone help?

squigs, how many different kinds are there? More than you'd think!
Almost all plastic
Chaos Bike is a plastic/metal hybrid kit
The blue chaos space marine and the berzerker in the first picture are metal
Around 1993 given that one of the gretchin, ork and space marine in the last pic are from the 2nd edition boxed set
$30 doesn't seem too bad if you like the aesthetic, and the models aren't difficult to strip. I had a bunch of those Plague Marine sculpts at one point

I decided to get them, and I'm going to pick them up tonight. Thanks for your help! There was also part of a Blood Angels 2nd edition Squad in there, too.
