keep them 

 some are the only game in town for certian ships

some are still fairly good though old toolings

 if you invest in a few p/e sets you can turn them into something nice

The B-25's in 700 scale would have come the Tamiya kit of the USS Hornet. The kit depicts her on the way to the Doolite raid in 1942. I don't know if Tamiya sold the as a separate set though. If you give us the names of the Kits, that would be a big help in letting you know there age...Cheers.

The Tamiya 1/700 Doolittle B-25s were, and still are, produced as a separate set:

Today, however, if you want 1/700 B-25s, the Trumpeter ones are the ones to go for:
