So I made it to the HoM, and set up my Obsidian armor for display, and saw this:
So when you display your armor, it won't display *your* armor, but more of a placeholder stating that you've gotten that set.
Just so ya know. Sorry if anyone got their hopes up about this, even though it's known to be character based...

I'm sorry to say but HOM just get's worse and worse....
Mini's have to be customized per character.
Armor is per character but not actually reflecting the real armor per character.
I'm beginning to feel a little let down with HOM - really looking forward to GW:EN (so far it's great) but HOM is a big letdown IMO right now.....

I hate to be negative twice in one day, but if that's the final version of how that works (showing armor that's not even yours), then that's just plain stupid.
Really, really stupid.
Almost as stupid as the utterly unbearable mini-pet customization.
What's next? If I enshrine my beloved pet Moa, do I get a statue of a lynx?
Not that I'd go enshrining my dearest pet that I've had since day one. After learning about the mini-pet deal, goodness knows what might happen to poor Redfeather.

HoM is a gimmick, don't get so worked up over it.

The HOM was presented as something to immortalize your achievements in GW1. The pic in the OP makes it look to be an extremely far cry from what "immortalized" should entail.

I think the biggest mistake Anet made was to make HoM sound bigger of a deal than it is.
Cacheelma
Indeed. Personally I think of this whole HoM thing as something I'd GRIND (for the lack of a better word) for in order to gain something *special* in GW2 as promised.
But to be honest, I don't really feel like working on it. I mean, you don't even have any slightest idea of how it is going to be like, or HOW GW2 is going to be like for that matter. Working on this such thing seems so pointless to me now.
And I've just put my male mesmer vabbian armor on the monument, only to see male paragon vabbian AND female necro vabbian armors on the display instead (God knows why they chose these 2). Fun!

That's JUST the way it is. The monument doesn't show you which armor you've unlocked, but instead show you the name of the set you've unlocked, along with some examples of armors from such set.
Lame. But let's just act like a fanboi now, shall we?
OMG This is so good thnx Anet!

If I put my Assassin's 15k Kurzick up there and it shows warrior Batman armour.... I am going to be seriously annoyed.
Ashleigh McMahon
Do you need the entire set of an armor to place it in HoM? I don't use a knights helm but have 15k knights set.
Ares Moonlight
I thought it would be more..Impressive.Like this big hall and you can put swords on standards and bows on the wall,things like that.
King Kong
What a huge let down, i haven't read one good thing about the hall yet 
mazey vorstagg
I'm sure they'll fix it, it's obvious that's a half hearted stand-in for the armor until the release.

Also extremely stupid is the weapons display. It will only display so called 'great items'... Which apparently my ele and cryst swords are not, nor is my perfect r8 zod axe... But you know what is considered a great item.... Effing GWEN items. I don't care how good they look, nothing tops an ele sword for great...
Navaros
I just displayed Dervish Obsidian armor and it put up the exact same statues as in the picture in the original post.

Now i'm just glad we've got a good few years left before GW:2 to get that helm and other parts =P
Anyone think we'l still be able to use HoM once GW:2 is released to add more stuff from GW:1?

EDIT: Out of interest, Morrowind was a game that sustained a large number of players for many many years because of 'gimmicks' like this or because it allowed people to create 'gimmicks' like this for their own amusement. GW also has something like vanity cam too.

Maybe it should have a "Under Construction" icon instead?

Can anyone confirm if they've tried to submit an armour set from a warrior without a helm?
I managed to put my Vabbi in, despite not having the Vabbi headpiece (I didn't feel like having a headlamp
) But then Elem's have only had generic headpieces up to then so maybe it's different.
Seems completely random on the display, as you can see:

Can't they make it at least to show the statue of our character? Y'know "imortalize" and all that, the way it is now is a bit crap imo.
Ghost Omel
Dis Apointed lol

i hope they modified and put our statue up there, and our armor. Why would i look at some random armor up there.
Beside this is a test- preview, i think they would fix it after they see how people would react to it.
FOr now i dont care anymore, HoM is the big letdown, who ever create those stuff in HoM is ( GRAY).
Just play the games for now, hope they fixed it.
