    I love this quote:
    “Finally I can photobomb myself!” joked Cumberbatch. “What a weird and wonderful compliment to be included in the ranks of talent already committed to wax. I've been accused of being wooden in my work but never waxy!" 

    I'll have to make sure to pay a visit to Tussauds if I ever make it across the pond again!

    Ha!  That is so awesome!     I love all his quotes!  He is so freaking cute.  And seriously, with how good he always looks, even every single darn hair perfectly in place?   For the shortest second, I thought that was the figure at first, it looks so perfect.     I wonder if by 'famous tousled hairstyle' they mean Sherlock hair?  Not as much 'Ben', but…. *shrug*   Did I already say he's so freaking cute??  ;)

    I'm working my way up the greasy pole.  It's… very greasy.  And…  pole-shaped.

    Wow, this even made it into the biggest yellow press paper in Germany, the BILD-Zeitung (which I only read for job-related reasons, believe me).

    Really?  BILD-Zeitung? You read that? Job-related?

    But that they mention this, really is ...

    Absolutely job-related, believe me.
    I did some research and found that the dpa (a German news agency) also had a short note about it.

    But mostly not in German press, not without "big" TV or film events. That's amazing.

    LOL at Benedict quote.

    I wonder how much time will the statue survive (with all the fans love... i give it 6 month before they have to do a new one).

    Re: Benedict is gonna be in Madame Tussaud's

    If I do get to London next year I'll have to get a photo taken with the wax doll... and of course do the PointyBatch thing... 

    I'm really curious to see how it turns out!

    Oh, I am a sleepyhead... Set a pic in the wrong thread, today.
    Everyday I look at the homepage of BILD.
    One reason is: They are   FAST!

    Okay... Here's the pic on the right place

    I have to thank you for the inspiration you give to me.
    You made me change my mind in so many ways.

    I am so glad I wasn't around anyone when I saw that pic… the noise I made…          
    (and yes… super fascinating… so cool imagining all that goes into one of those!!)

    Never been to Madame Tussaud's - never wanted to.
    Reconsidering now.

    From RadioTimes: Benedict Cumberbatch wax figure in final stages - see the pictures. The head looks quite amazing, sitting right next to Benedict.

    I know it's only the clay yet... but I'm really impressed about the likeness!

    And how cool is it that Ben had his hands on it??
