| | |  Dan Radcliffe waxwork at Madame Tussauds
Dan Radcliffe has become the youngest actor to be immortalised as a waxwork at Madame Tussauds in London. Quote:
Although the majority of celebrities sit for sculptors when having their figures made, the 17-year-old was said to have been too busy. Incredibly, he has not even seen the figure yet.
Quote:
One of the two sculptors who took several weeks to make the life-size model, Colin Jackman, said: "We had a lot of research from photos and film footage. Most times, celebrities will sit, but in this case, it did not happen."
 Quote:
Ben Lovett, of Madame Tussauds, said: "Daniel had been asked for several years, but with his 18th birthday coming up, we thought it would be appropriate. Hopefully, the figure will be a big hit with teenage girls."
When asked why Radcliffe had ditched his glasses and famous scar, he added: "Daniel is nearly 18 and he has some serious acting roles under his belt and we wanted to reflect that.
"For the last couple of years, people have been asking for a Daniel Radcliffe figure and they said we should include him as a British star in his own right."
More images of the waxwork can be seen in our galleries here.  | |

I wish Dan had had the time to sit, especially for measurements. The statue is quite alive, but looks, at best, like a 25 year old Dan.
Anyway, the honour is great, and I kinda like the sculpture. Hopefully they will have a chance to perfect it.

We spent time here. We made friends here. That's a part of us.
Cause Hogwarts is bigger than any of us, of any of it's founders,
and it's going to be around long after we're gone.
Maybe we'll see our kids come here one day.
That's the thing about Hogwarts.
No matter how long you're away from it, there's always a way back. | |

Oh yes...he's very serious. They did a wonderful job with the figure. My first words were "Oh my gosh!"
