I am not aware there are any 787 or 77W that are built and unclaimed, you might be mistaken the 737 MAX.

Those in XMN are actually stored there rather than in for heavy checks, if you noticed the in date they have been there for months, those that are there actually for maintenance are the sCO 77E

there are no definitely plans to return to service, someone is mistaken the 77N/U/G/M had been there for months as storage rather than doing anything, the only ones that are actually there for maintenance are the 77E, which are the GE birds
