Star Wars Exhibit Coming to Madame Tussauds London in May 2015.

WaxThe British wax museum Madame Tussauds is starting up a Star Wars-themed wax exhibit. The exhibit will allow viewers to see 16 characters in 11 scenes from (almost) all six movies.

 

 

Curiously, there is no exhibit to represent a scene or characters from Attack Of The Clones. Here’s an excerpt from the official press release:

Tuesday February 3, 2015. Madame Tussauds London today announced a multi-million pound expansion at its world famous Baker Street attraction, with a major new Star Wars experience due to open in May this year.

 

Created in close collaboration with Disney and Lucasfilm, Star Wars at Madame Tussauds will be a unique, immersive experience starring extraordinarily life-like wax figures of the favourite heroes and villains of Star Wars Episodes I-VI.

 

The figures will appear in authentic walk-in sets inspired by key scenes from the movies. Dynamic special effects will add to the immersion, as fans step right into, and star in, some of the most iconic moments in film history.

      It would be a cool slap in the face to Lucas to show a HAN SHOT FIRST scene

      They could have used most scenes as the dialogue was a bit wooden (I know they’re made from wax)

    I can’t really think of many Iconic scenes in Attack of the Clones

    The only really memorable scene is the Obi-wan vs Jango Fett on Kamino, but then they’d also need the spacecraft, and the third character in the scene is the huge pouring rainstorm that they fight under, which is kind of a no-go for wax sculptures.

    The only good scenes would be the fight with Dooku, and the Jedis next to the dead Zam Wessel, but those aren’t iconic, AT ALL.
