Assalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh

I have a question, I'm a teenager (16 next month) and I like toy figures such as iron man. I already have a statue/figure of a game character from the game (gears of war) which is about 30cm tall. I don't worship it or pray to it or do anything with it, I just like the game and character and it looks nice so I bought it to display in my room. I also like iron man the superhero movie and there are toys/statues of them available, the links are below, is it OK to have these toys just to put them on display in my room in a glass box, I don't and will not pray to them or communicate or do anything with them, they just look good and realistic, however some of the figures have a realistic head, see the first link for this, is this allowed if not is it OK to remove the head and still keep the figure ? I have heard that image making is haram so I can remove the realistic head of the figure and just put the mask of the hero on (as shown in the other pictures) please help as I want to be guided to the right path and not be committing sins by purchasing these toys! Also aren't statues the big strong sculptures of humans that are displayed around the world and are the toys still classed as statues ?

Assalamualaikum brother/sister
