These 4 animals on skateboards are a Japanese vending machine (gachapon) set. This is the first set (released in 2022), followed by at least one more (featuring blue highlights instead of orange).

Mitsuketa!
Mitsuketa! (or Miitsuketa!) is a Japanese children's show about talking chairs and a cactus, at least as far as I can ascertain. I think it started in 2008 and appears to be still going. These figures are from 2018.

Goofy IX
Goofy's 9th appearance here and featuring by far his worst style on a board yet. This is part of a set that I originally through was only Mickey and Minnie. A sticker on the bottom shows he was sold at Disney Parks and Resorts in Anaheim, CA. Assuming the set was exclusive to park stores. Makes me wonder who else was part of the set.

Alligator
Just an alligator (or crocodile?) pencil topper with no further info. Guessing probably 1990s or 2000s (made in China).

Detective Conan II
Detective Conan returns for his 2nd appearance on BPA, this time as a rather tiny figure that most likely came from a capsule or blind box. Unfortunately I can not find any info on this figure.
Conan's first appearance was also as a figure.
