Splash predominantly, none of them appears to be a typical Tobiano in pattern, either.
Sorry, I am a bit obsessive about this so ignore me if I come on too strong, please ;)
The third one also has Sabino, any of the others may also have Sabino, it does not always affect the face strongly, but it does always at least try to put white on the bottom lip- but since Tobiano appears to limit white forward of the shoulder, a strong Tobiano may negate Sabino's ability to add white the the bottom lip.

These are just my opinions:

Honey- splash with the way it falls off to one side

Peppy- sabino +/- splash

Cricket- splash and frame

Zipper- splash

Flicka- sabino/tobiano

I see splash on honey and cricket
Doesn't one of the patterns like making nice straight even blazes? I can't remember. But aside from the missing spot, Peppy's blaze is very very straight!
Love Zipper's but no clue what that is.
