Photo 1, 3 and 4 looks horrifying.
In the first photo it's strange how even though SpongeBob looks so wrong it still has 7 pores.In this thread post and discuss bootleg/counterfeit/illegal SpongeBob stuff.
I will start.

The Thomas and Friends one is official, I think. I could be wrong.

RoundBod Squarepont and buds
Even though a number of these look kinda freakish by our standards, I have to say that I quite enjoy learning about and seeing them nonetheless. My understanding is that most of these are marketed to and sold in poorer nations where the manufacturers might try to capitalize on a vague familiarity with the SpongeBob intellectual property without paying exorbitant licensing fees.
And then there's the "SpiderMan" and "Avengers" SpongeBob merch, where I think the factories just got lazy and slapped whatever spare parts they had lying around together and - voila! - SpongeBob is a Marvel superhero now.
@ilove1994 I wouldn't blame you if you think that...
Also the country were the Roundbod Squarepont originated from is Arabia
