Batch 1 from years ago, are they fake?

I'm 90% sure most of these are fake, but I want someone else to double check me. I have a lot so rather than post all of them, I'll try posting a few at a time. If anyone needs closer pics, let me know & I can try.

The key is definitely a fake, it has soft enamel.  I don't know enough about the other pins to give any advice.

@jackpumpkinhead Knowing what the pin should look like is half the battle of deciding whether or not your pin is authentic. It's not uncommon for authentic pins to have flaws, so that doesn't always make a pin a bad one. While some flaws can be the sign of a fake, don't judge your pin on a single type of flaw. It's good to compare coloring, font/line thickness, shape of the Mickey-icon (on Hidden Mickeys), typos, enamel fill/dips/overflow, etc., but still keeping in mind that many authentic pins can have one or more of these issues. I hope this helps.
