Those cartoony vehicles were the Airfix Junior ‘Commando Force’ line which I think were Heller ‘Cliclac’ snap together kits rebranded to look slightly more edgy. I remember having a few, specifically the Land Rover with the boat on its roof.
as someone else pointed out, the robots are the Web Warriors Cyberforce, which lbr is probably Airfix's answer to Gundam lol. it turns out, though, that they're actually a localized/repackaged line of Japanese robot models from the 80's called Omoroid, they even remade a few of the models last year as an anniversary thing.
OMFG I AM SO JEALOUS OF THAT POSTER WITH THE GR91! THATS SO CUTE! Also the ship and tank thing I do a video on about the Helicopter from it - called "Airfix's COMICS with their 90s MODELS!? - Airfix Junior Phantom"
Very interesting Matt. All from about the midpoint in my break from the hobby, some of the kits they were flogging were old back in the late 70s, talk about getting value for money out of the moulds. Having said that, the Vintage Classics are fun to build and the new-tooled kits are a quantum leap.
I love vintage kits and things Like that and,these are definetly a gem to have,and that first one is older than me so damn,Thats an interesting collection!
Those funny guys are Airfix Web Warriors. A kind of transforming robot collection. Released in 1999, but I don;t think they were around for long. edit: And if you want to build the england footballers...pletny of them on E-Bay for around £10. But....really...why!
I've been a member since the 1970s (On and Off, since then). I enrolled my young son in the early 2000s. Despite a new range of child orientated products the new range was a disappointment. I didn't like the new stuff and neither did my son. The new Club is excellent.

Thanks for letting me know!
I loved the Airfix Junior kits I had the liberator which was a Cessna

I don't remember being into the "kids" range in my youth, instead opting for the standard models
