To me, actually Prof. X looks out of place... I tried to go first with bad guys, but there were not that many brother hood statues, so then I just went with height.
I had to adjust the shelf because of that 'goofy' juggie statue..

I just bought the Wolverine and Storm maquettes from a member here via ebay and they should be arriving soon, when they come, its just Captain America to get and Ill have the full set too!
Great style, its not to everyones taste because of the simplicity of the style, but together they are fantastic, and pretty big too!!

The Wolverine was a hard one to find for me as well as Capt. America, but Danny was able to help me out.

Yeah the wolverine is definitely the rarest one, at least by ebay - Captain America you can find but more pricey than most of the others (I bought all of the others for around $20-30 a piece, Cap Ive seen for around $70-80 minimum)
I had thought of displaying them surrounding xavier left to right, much like in the cartoon with Xavier being central, but I really like the display in the pics shown, in rows.
Colossus is fantastic, Jugs is amazing too, in fact, they are all gorgeous, just because of how sleek they are. I mean come on, when was I ever going to buy a bust or statue of Xavier, yet he looks fantastic in person.
My personal favourite is Colossus, for obvious reasons, but also because of his great powerful stance, the muscle comes out really well even in this style.

I love maquettes as well, and own these with the exception of Capt. America and Proff. X. I would like to get them as well perhaps sometime. My only complaint is that Wolverine and Cyclpos are out of scale. Wolverine is much too tall, and Cyclops is much too short. BUT, the sculpts on these are FANTASTIC!!!
