Ficus Identification

I recently picked this up from Bonsai South. As the nursery being very busy at the time, i didnt get a chance to ask what it was. I was hoping somebody would be able to shed some light on the situation. The second smaller starter i picked up from Ray Nesci, and once again under the same circumstances didnt ask. I think they are the same but am not entirely sure. The smaller one has slightly different leaves.

Please help ! :geek:
