ummm
1)I only collect trades. I've got all the trades done for the Ultimate Marvel universe. I was just wonderin is there any lingering stories that have not been collected into Trade format?
I can answer these: as far as I know the only issues (at least older issues, barring ones that have been released relatively recently) that aren't collected in a softcover trade are UMTU #6-8, which are the Spidey/Daredevil/Punisher 3 issue arc. For some reason, UMTU vol. 1 collected #1-5, UMTU vol. 2 collected #9-13 (skipping #6-8), and vol. 3 collected #14-16 and the Spider-Man Super Special. However, the hardcover for the UMTU collected ALL 16 issues and the Super Special, so if you're a completist that might be the way to go (or just buy the softcovers and pick up those three issues individually).
eg is there a 1/2 issue. and please note that I only collect the softcover trades.
Yes, there have been both a USM #1/2 and a UXM #1/2, both of which I believe were Wizard mail-aways. USM #1/2 featured the first appearance of Iron Fist, and UXM #1/2 featured a story in which Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch attempt to steal Magneto's body from an army convoy, and Cyclops, Iceman, and Colossus try to stop them. They then only find his helmet (since Magneto was still alive the army couldn't find his body). I believe both are being collected into trade format, just unsure which volume exactly, but it should be soon so probably either the next volume or even the most recently released. Someone else will probably be able to specify which for you.
2) Is there any full statue/maquette of Ultimate characters out there? The only one I know of is the Doctor Octupus VS Spiderman Diorama. I know there are a handful of busts, but why would I want half a statue

not sure about this, but I think there are several available, just unsure as to who, etc.
