While they are very tall, the OD color figures are about 75 mm that still can go with some brands such as Elastolin, Pech Hermanos, and Jecsan-Comansi figures. Other two modern figure (a boy and adult male) are 85 mm and I had put then for saleĀ 
Notice Do/Heinerlie Tarzan pose is for scale purposes.
70mm figures
The figures are done in blue.
In OD green
The two in OD green colors resemble Elastolin style and are an odd mix of old and modern hunter uniform -clothing. I have chosen use then as WW1 colonial troopers/militia for the poor represented.  East Africa Camping  or represented the East Africa Campaign

Cave People

Tarzan family as “cavemen”!? by also by Toy Major
The following figures are 70 mm and sold along with dinosaurs and other prehistoric animals in a plastic blue box I got still. I do not know if they were made for other sets as well.

Female and baby

The figures appear to be taken from former Tarzan poses family set and made as a “primitive” set or maybe are Tarzan family set indeed.

    Great find the Tarzan and Safari figures. May I mention that the kneelin/sitting Tarzan in the first two photos was made by Willy Limpert for Dom-Plastik. He came in painted and unpainted versions and soft- and (hard to find) hardplastic versions. There were four Tarzan figures in the set which are shown together with Korak and a pygmy in my Dom-Plastik checklist.

      Yes, you may mention a great series from Dom-Plastik. The figures are a series that I look for in Europe.
