Display
If you want the display to tell a story of the Corps and, going by the badges you’ve listed, I am guessing circa 1900 onwards, I would suggest:
Queens Crown Helmet Plate central, RMA top left RMLI top right and plain globe & laurel top centre (this was initially the cap badge of 3 short lived WW1 units - RMLC, RME & RMSM)
Below the globe and laurel but above the Helmet Plate a Kings Crown cap badge (indicating the amalgamation of RMA & RMLI into the Corps as we know it today) and either side of the Helmet Plate a bronze and anodised Queens Crown cap Badge.
Below the Helmet Plate would be the area for band badges. In addition to the band ones you mention you might consider including the RMLICMB cap badge (identical to the RMLI cap badge but modern anodised). Likely to be of interest to cadets.
If you wanted to in the future you could do another display which looked at the evolution of the Commando element and that would likely be all cloth items & include SBS.

P.S. I only have one album which is all RM
