      Hi ,
      My best guess is that they are Japanese Hannya spirit figures.

      The Hannya is a female demon, and in the original story a woman fell in love with a priest, and , unable to consummate her love, her face became distorted with anger and jealousy. It is a character from Noh plays.

      I hope this is of some help.
      Good luck!
