Definitely personal taste. I don't think I like many crouching/hunched over poses because I like to see as much of the character and it's outfit as I can. One of my big dislikes are museum poses where the character's head is looking downwards so you can't get a good view of the face if it is not placed at eye level. Colossus PF is one of them.
Anyways, not saying XM HB is not a good statue, on the contrary, it is incredible and I am sure it will be an eye catcher in a collection.
Same with Thanos, the sheer bulk and size of it will be an eye catcher, but it better be if someone is willing to pay 3K or more for it
