The attraction, which has locations in Orlando, New York City and Hollywood, didn’t say which locations would end up with a Biden figure only that it will take may take awhile to create it due to COVID-19.
“It’s a tradition for Madame Tussauds to honor each United States president with a figure,” Madame Tussauds said in a statement to Spectrum News on Monday. “Each of our figures take a team of 20 artists four to six months to create and COVID-19 has had an impact on production timelines; however, we will be creating a wax figure for our 46th president-elect Joe Biden.”
Meanwhile the Madame Tussauds in London gave its Donald Trump wax figure a makeover shortly after Biden was announced as the projected winner on Saturday. The attraction changed clothing of the Trump figure to golf attire.
“His campaign may not have been a hole in one, but @realDonaldTrump is now on course to dedicate more of his time to his favourite sport as #MadameTussaudsLondon re-dresses his figure in golfing attire to reflect his potential 2021 wardrobe,” the attraction tweeted Saturday.
Madame Tussauds, which is operated by UK-based Merlin Entertainment, also features wax figures of actors, athletes, musicians and historical figures.
