Alvin and the Chipmunks Sing and Dance Their Way Into Madame Tussaud's

Tinkerbell was not the only pint sized addition to hit madame Tussaud's this past week. Alvin and the Chipmunks also received wax figures at the Las Vegas museum. Although the singing rodents are covered in fur, the museum decided that they deserved the wax treatment. They stand 18 inches tall, and are in a dancing pose. Not many non human and/or fictitious characters get made into wax figures at Madame Tussaud's. And in Las Vegas, the Chipmunks Join Master Chief from Halo, Spiderman, and Siegfried and Roy's Tiger in that category.

Alvin! Where's his Hula Hoop?

And Theodore.

News- Tinkerbell Lands at Madame Tussauds

This past week, Madame Tussaud's Wax Museum in London released a new Tinkerbell wax figure. The miniature figure is only 5 and a half inches tall, and is perched on a tree branch. The detail is amazing for such a small figure, and it must be far more fragile than a normal wax figure.

An artist touches up her face, and adds the last few details before the figure is unveiled. Tink reminds me of the Christmas tree topper my family had when I was a kid.

Musée Grévin- An Evening at Malmaison

Musée Grévin in Paris France is one of the oldest wax museums in the world, and it holds some of the greatest wax figures and wax tableaux ever (based on the pictures I've seen). Here we see many a French dignitary enjoy Chateau Malmaison one quiet evening. Standing on the left are Joseph Fouché and Louis Alexandre Berthier. Sitting at the table are Joseph Bonaparte, Jean Jacques Régis de Cambacérès, Charles Francois Lebrun and Charles Maurice de Talleyrand-Périgord. Don't ask me who is who.

I am assuming that this is Bonaparte, and that the other gentlemen at the table are Cambacérès, Lebrun, and Talleyrand.

And the rest. Maybe Talleyrand. I am just not up on the history of the French Revolution.
