From what I know there was a Freddie waxfigure in Rock Circus (Freddie in Live Aid clothing) but maybe they changed that? It was added there first half of the 90's I guess. And for sure another Freddie waxwork was in Madame Tussauds in Amsterdam (Freddie in Wembley '86 clothing, yellow jacket, white trousers with red lines on sides). But that was some years ago when I saw it there, don't know if it's still there. But it surely was, I have a picture with it somewhere at home. And it's much better than that Blackpool figure.

Hmm. With that one [posted picture], it's okay ... could be better. (And the whole "You're-no-wax-museum!" thing was hilarious.)

You guys haven't seen the absolute worst example of a Freddie wax figure. Visit

Amazing how much it doesn't look like Freddie.

In 1993 I visited Rock Circus and I had my picture taken with the Freddie statue in Live-Aid clothes.
I wore myself that day a t-shirt with a photo of... Freddie in Live-Aid clothes!
And... my own name is ALSO Freddie!

So a lot of Freddie on that photo... :D

Indeed the wax-museum in Amsterdam also has a statue of Freddie, dressed in clothes from the Magic tour. I saw that one in 1996. The little board with info about Freddie next to the statue though spelled Freddie with an "Y".... and they said Queen was famous for songs like Killer Queen and some others, but they did not mention BoRap...
I wonder which idiot wrote the text on that tile...
