Are those Prussians from Eureka? The ones that come with a whirrly-gig option?
Below is a link to my blog. It's the place where I write uninteresting things about little toy soldiers. I do this because I refuse to grow up and behave like an adult.

I find the steel and grit of the Empress's Lady Hussars truly amazing; if confronted with a face like that, I'm sure my 'welcome' would involve heavy artillery!  lol

REALLY lovely work!

Few answers:
Yes, those Rokkittruppen are Eureka
Yes, the Brute is an Indiana Jones tank with plasticard/foamcore build up, but it didn't come from Disneyland.
Most of vehicles are conversions from the Disney Atlantis toys.

As always,

Since the Visitor looks like an egg, I suppose its flying vehicle was bell-shaped?

(At least in Catholic countries Easter eggs are dropped by the church bells on their flight back from Rome)
