I have no idea what kinds of sea stars these are since I'm no expert when it comes to aquatic life, but here's what I have from my childhood collection. I wrote down the brands of each too. I'm also not entirely sure what a sea cucumber is lol but I THINK the one I have with the sea stars pictured here is indeed a sea cucumber. Please correct me if I'm wrong!

Fantastic, this is exactly the purpose of these topics.
I think there aren't echinodermata experts here but we all together can find good identification to them.
Valerie already identified your Safari sea star as a Common starfish, Asterias rubens, probably, the small Wild Republic Itsy Bitsy is the same species, the other figure from the same collection is indeed a sea cucumber, which species is hard to determine but surely a common one and the first we know.
You are also introducing a new brand, unless I don't know it and Andreas neither. Bela, something very interesting to hunt and their sea stars seem to be identifiable, I still don't know which species but they seem familiar. If you know more about Bela, let us know. Are figures marked with brand and year, if not how have you found it?
The K&M blue star is among those we know but we were not yet able of identifying. Thanks for your picture!

I think that are the starfishes that are not listed (but also unmarked), and i dont have specie names.

So I recently got these seastars in a lot with figurines. They're all marked 'China' and are numbered. I don't have them right here, so I can't check the numbers, sorry D:

I found these on AliExpress (here):

Thanks Julie for sharing both pics of sea stars, I really have to update this topic.
