The first is Oreocereus trollii. I think the last one is Gymnocalycium anisitsii.

Thanks guys for those IDs!
Definitely:
- Oreocereus trollii
- Pilosocereus pachycladus

Maybe:
- Gymnocalycium anisitsii

Why maybe? because sometimes my plant doesn't match well with plants on google

G. anisitsii is a quite variable taxon, some varieties have very pronounced stripes or patches of color - this just isn't one of them. All are prized for their free=blooming nayure.
