Mystery camera gear -- help identify?

Found this on an auction site with hundreds of other products up for auction. No description. I know its a shitty photo, but I was hoping someone could help identify the gear. Can anyone line up some features? Any ideas?

Wow...this is like a Rorschach test where you see what you want to see. I kinda agree with Adpo that the camera on the top right looks like it could be a Program Plus, except that it only seems to have one button on top. Plus, the knurling on the lens looks more like something from Nikon. If you can get the whole lot for cheap, I think it's worth picking up.

I'd go US$50, maybe $65 maximum, it's just too hard to tell if anything there is worth more.

The only things I recognize are the bulk film loader and the vivitar flash behind it. Perhaps a 550fd. Nice little flash if it works but not worth more than $10 in mint condition. I don't think there are any gems in there but I can't see what's on the second camera. The lens on the one that shows a lens looks like a 28-80 zoom of some sort (just a guess at the FL). The zoom probably has permanent zoom creep.

Myself, I would pass on the lot.

What I think, from top left to bottom left, clockwise...

-Vivitar flash
-?? Can't tell what the body is...it's got a lens on it and it's not a Pentax.
-Next camera looks to have a Nikon D autofocus lens on a manual body
-Mystery soft pouch looks to have "Nikon" on it
-Big hard case may have a 300/4 or 5.6 lens in it
-Under the film loader appears to be a 135/2.8 lens of some kind
-Generic Tokina-made 70~210 f/4-ish

I think this is a Nikon kit. Maybe. Probably. How much is it?

I could tell the vivitar flash, but the rest, well, i had no idea.

Looks like most people are leaning towards a Nikon kit, though.

Price? Its an auction (old school, not online), so...nothing yet.

I can tell you that it's NOT a Super A, ME, ME Super, MX or any kind of Olympus.

Body on left may be Canon AE1?
