    The really interesting thing about these photos is that if that is Marilyn Monroe in the first photo, I think they have slimmed her down a bit. She had a beautiful figure but by the standards of today's actresses and models she was very curvy -more curvy than your photo suggests.

    My husband resembles Teddy Roosevelt--well, at least he has glasses and a large mustache like he had! lol!

    Thank you for haring the sign that tells how long it takes to create the figures. It is unbelievable. What an undertaking. We recognized the figures :-)

    We didn't have the time to go here when we were in London 10 years ago. Next time! Amazing to see the hours of work that goes into these figures. Have a great week and thank you for the link up.

    Wax museums can be fun and kind of creepy all at the same time. Nice set of images.

    We visited the London MT - I'm fairly certain my granddaughter liked it better than any other art we viewed while across the pond!

    We have Madame Tussauds in Sydney Australia. I havent been. It certainly takes some work to 'make a replica' doesnt it?

    Knowing how long you have to queue to get into MTs during the Summer months, when my daughter and I traveled to London in February last year for a family do, I made sure we went for a visit....we had a lovely time there and far fewer tourists....it is a fascinating place :) Thanks for linking in to my linky at Cath@Home at Fun Friday Favourites and for the lovely comment you left on my blog post.
    ps....could you add my linky to your blogroll?
