Newb needs help identifying some Gillettes

Here are some Gillettes I need help identifying. Some I am not sure of, others I have no idea. I managed to identify the Fat Boy and Slim adjustables. These were all part of one major score from my wife's uncle. :D They still need a bit of cleaning, but most were fairly decent.

I will provide as much information as I have on them.

Thanks everyone! Figured I could have continued googling around for a few more days and still not been sure. So far I've only tried the tech. 2 shaves in with it and it's getting better. Need to hold it at a totally different angle than my Merkur HD.

Should have enough here to keep me busy for quite a while I think.
