Locked up air tools

I just recently got a compressor going again, and now most of my air tools are locked up, I'm guessing from sitting for years without use. I have oiled them, no workee, what else can I do? Would soaking them in a penetrating oil help? Are they hard to repair, or do I need to just get new ones? Most are C/P kind of quality, a few off brands I picked up here and there or got in trades.

I'm putting over 100# of air to them and they don't even budge.
