I have some more Rebus puzzles:

enter image description here

Seeing how the first lot were a bit easy I decided to make these a bit harder. Good luck!

HINT FOR 3:

It has something to do with the fact that they are numbers i.e letters wouldn't work

A minor suggestion: given that your first puzzle was called "Some Rebus Puzzles Part I", this one should probably be called "Some Rebus Puzzles Part II", rather than "More Rebus Puzzles Part II". In any event, nice rebuses! – Silenus 16 hours ago
    
@Silenus I wanted some variation... Is it possible to change the name of a puzzle? – Wen1now 16 hours ago
    
Yes, I believe so. Just go to the page and edit it. Maybe a title sequence like: "Some Rebuses", "Some More Rebuses", "Yet More Rebuses", "Rebuses, still", etc. Or "Some Rebuses Part I", "Some Rebuses Part II: More Rebuses", etc. – Silenus 16 hours ago

PSA: No letters are missing from the alphabet in the bottom left one. – greenturtle3141 14 hours ago

Not sure it matters as the answer was found but normally when you put one word/string 'in' another as part of a cryptic clue it is together as a whole, not interlaced with the other word. – Arth 9 hours ago

The bottom row:

Alphabet soup, back out, hole in one.

Nice work! 2/3; the first one is somewhat harder than that. – Wen1now 17 hours ago
    
The second in your list could also refer to the Australian countryside. – Hugh Meyers 6 hours ago

Yep that's it. Sorry about the old one. – Wen1now 12 hours ago

Could the third one be

This doesn't add up.

because

for proper summing, you need the numbers to be right aligned?

Some alternative guesses..

Third one:

Bottom line

Fourth one:

Letter bomb

For the fifth one..

I quite like 'outback' instead of 'back out' here :)

First:

Walking on Thin Ice

Second:

Sitting Duck

Third:

"In Summary" or "Grand Total"... though I love Glorfindel's answer "This doesn't add up"

Fourth:

Mix Up

Fifth:

Backout

Sixth:
