The appearance doesn't really mean many things. What we see is a modified model, and the factory that made the model may not have received a real blueprint.

These are just mockup, not all missiles are the same size & proportion.
I don't think any of them are mock-ups, or scaled models.
They are probably real assets, affixed to mounts for the parade.
All missiles are mock-ups, just like in previous military parades. No one is crazy enough to use real ammunition in a military parade.
Does that mean literally just the shell, or warhead + fuel removed?
These are so clearly mock-ups
Others have already mentioned this, but I think it's useful to talk about terminology
"Real assets" -- means actual, functioning missiles/aircraft/systems
"Mock ups" -- means objects that are not functioning but resemble actual missiles/aircraft/systems in representative ways. Mockups can be full scale or smaller scale. Details of mock-ups may be accurate or inaccurate depending on the role of the mockup
"Scaled models" -- are mockups which are smaller (usually) than 1:1 in size to the real thing.
It is correct to say that these are likely 1:1 sized mockups, therefore they are likely represent the real size of actual functioning real assets.
However these are not real assets themselves.
Your reply to bsdnf should have said that they were likely mockups of a 1:1 scale and thus likely represented the real size of the actual assets and thus were useful for measurement purposes.
