The entire shape of subject's cortical surfaces are represented in ".surf.gii" files in the subject folders. These are available in MNI space in the MNINonLinear subfolder. However, different subject's brains have different shapes, so there usually aren't good anatomical coordinates for cross-subject results, especially when using MSMAll surface registration (which improves sensitivity by aligning functional areas, rather than trying to align brain shape).
We will often display results (using wb_view) on group-average and/or inflated versions of surfaces, which no longer have anatomical alignment of their coordinates, but allow things to be shown without being hidden by cortical folding. This does not require summarizing fMRI "clusters" as peak MNI coordinates, which is an inaccurate and oversimplified representation of fMRI results, and generally implies volume-based analysis, which generally aligns based only on brain shape.
