Ask him?
I bought mine largely from a couple different companies. The company itself doesn't really matter for the most part, but it allows a prospective buyer to know that they aren't little truck stop figurines without having to see photos of them all It
might be marked on the bottom, but I doubt it. For some reason, companies don't like to tag their figurines :/
If they're pewter, then they'll be surprisingly heavy for their small size and will be, well, soft metal. There are a few different metals used to make them (this is ten years ago, so don't shoot me if I mess something up). The type of metal determines how well the figure holds its shape, how resistant it is to damage, how nice it looks overall, and how much it's worth.
I'm not sure how much plastic figurines would be worth at all.
This (which naturally has been repainted) is usually what collectors are looking for, just to let you know.
