Orlando Wax Figure

**Cat** · 09-18-2006, 03:20 PM

I went to Madame Tussauds in London yesterday and saw some PotC banners on the way. I remember thinking "No, this can't be!" Haha, anyway, it turned out to be real...they actually had Pirates in wax! And not any two pirates, Johnny Depp and Orlando Bloom (and Keira). Johnny looked incredibly real. I was scared he was going to jump out and go "BOO!" -- some other guy did that.

I took some pictures, I don't know how they turned out. My digital camera is broken, of course, so you'll have to wait until I've had time to get them developed and I've seen how they turned out. I waited in line FOREVER to get those pictures, so I hope they turn out good. I just figured I'd give everyone a heads up incase you're in the neighborhood in the near future. It actually looks like the Pirates stuff is in the NY Madame Tussauds as well. According to the official website, that is.

Here's a picture I found online (for now):

I love that place, it's amazing.

I've seen those pics before, they look so real. The Keira one looks very badly replicated though.

I agree, I don't like the Keira one but the other two... wow!

Well, there you go. I'm always late when it comes to this kind of stuff.
The Keira figure was pretty bad. I didn't even bother to take a picture of it. The dress was very nice though!

Excuse my double post, but I'm talking to myself in here...

I got the pictures back. They were of horrible quality (I was told the film was old), but I thought you might like to see them anyway. You see how real Johnny looks in the picture. And that Orlando doesn't quite look like himself...

I tried to mess around with them in Photoshop, but it wasn't of much help. Eh.

I think Will looks fine....aside from looking a bit lifeless and the clothes look a bit..child costume-ish.
