    It aint perfect but as far as wax figures go it’s pretty good

  2. Reesa

    They need to brush his hair. Lol.

  3. HiPhOpFaN

    It does look like him…but something is missing. I just can’t put a finger on it. And his hair aint that nappy either.

  4. Ms Ke

    looks good, but kinda scary…

  5. shashee

    Somthing’s off … I think his eyes are too close together.

  6. Toya1

    You know who it is, but it doesn’t really look like him . . .

  7. caramel$kisses

    LOOKS NOTHING LIKE HIM

  8. MLOVE

    It’s hot…it’s just a little more hair than he rocks though.

  9. Mariola

    ew.
    It doesn’t look like him!!!!!
    I love him so much. I feel a lil scarred lol. It just so off
    Man they could have done such a better job.

  10. Nothing But Love

    It looks good but something looks a lil off i think its the head shape…

  11. Husna

    it looks shit like him
    maybe the smile ://
    :D

  12. LunaLoca

    It resembles him but it does not look like him. The two things that stick out to me is hair (Obama has a Caesar cut) and he does not look that old in real life. They made him look tired and old.

  13. .cj

    Oh please. It looks like him stop trying to find faults

  14. Harlem Loves...

    I agree with number 4 something is definitely off.

  15. trendsetter

    It is as close as alot of people will get to stand next to President Obama

  16. I Love ME

    GOOODDD JOB ! !! looks like em ! !

  17. FallBackHaters

    Job well done. I’ve seen some of those wax figures and they look nothing like the person but at least with this Obama one you can tell it’s him. Madame Tussauds did a good job for this.

    And how comes London got one already. I hope the Madame Tussauds in NY and elsewhere have a wax figure. Get on your job. That’s the President. Good to see him making moves around the world though.

  18. A Parent

    My husband said that his skin color is off. I on the other hand thought it kinda look like him but nahhhh…. it’s like they’re making a joke out of him or something. Not cool.

  19. OMG!

    The tone of his skin is a little off. They made his undertones red; they have more of a yellow undertone. Other than that ,it’s pretty much an exact replica.

  20. MI

    it looks good enough…but something is off about it..

  21. ann

    I’ve give credit when it’s due. The last two pic further away look better. At least the complexion is correct, I agree with 6&9. Eyes too close, too much hair.

  22. Sayanything

    FallBackHaters—There is a Barack Obama wax statue at the Blacks in Wax Museum in Baltimore. There is also one at the Madame Tussaud in D.C. For some reason the one at the Madame Tussaud in DC looks a lot more like him than this one.

  23. The Secret Life of Me

    I have to agree it resembles him but doesn’t look like him… they needed a tad more olive color in the skin tone, a little more filler in the cheek and a better hairline. Barack’s hairline is always precise, his cut is usually closer and his forehead is a tad wider. I think on a whole they went a tad long on his face.

    They just don’t do well with people of color. Sorry! Well it’s wax so oh well

  24. Missy

    The first photo looks okay. The second and third look kinda scary! LMBO at his lips!!!

  25. sexsee

    His eyes are not like that, but everything else is ok.

  26. The Truth

    Good BUT the shape of the head and forehead to high or something

  27. ~THAIJAE~

    It looks like him to me… I mean, I don’t expect perfection in a wax figure, but it definitely resembles him. Well done!

  28. YEAH RIGHT!

    The hair could have been a little smoother. But they did a pretty good job. i think it could have been a tad better. But he’s hott anyway!

  29. TIffany

    His smile is too big.

  30. dukesman2000

    Where the hell did they get the hair from?

  31. Special k cereal w/strawberries

    The Eyes are too small and too close together and he does not have those bags under his eyes.. His hair is not that nappy and the ears are too small.. lol
    Other then that i think they did a pretty good job..

  32. Ninagirl1

    Looking at it I know that it is Barack Obama, wether its a lil bit off is not such a big deal because it captures him very well. The figure is full of life. I think they did a great job in the vision they had of Barack.

  33. Yola

    Looks good to me. It’s a wax figure afterall, so it can’t be perfect.

  34. becca

    TERRIFYING!!!! but an honor.

  35. Tha New Jessica Rabbit

    @HIPHOPFAN

    LMAO…I agree 100% his hair is not that nappy, but I must say the wax figure does favor Obama alot they really did a good job, I wouldn;t mind them making a wax figure of me, I know it would be smoking hot!

  36. caramel$kisses

    it looks like his evil twin brother Bryant Obama..LOL

  37. Ninagirl1

    Matter of fact, looking at a picture of Barack right next to the figure the only difference there is the mole was made smaller by his nose and also the bone of his nose was raised highter which is probably the reason everyone is stating his eyes look closer together. The way they raised his nose gives him a more European look as opposed to African. :/

    But obviously thats how they vision him.

  38. Illy

    I did notice that his complexion and hair was off. Also, I dont think his eyes are that small. They should have used less skin for the undereye to open them more. It still looks decent.

  39. Jenny J

    They did a good job, But his face could have been alittle fuller, and his hair alittle shorter…

  40. Nothing But Love

    5 DAYS !!!!!!!

  41. JUJU

    Yeah i agree with others something is off! I mean other celebs have gotten wax figures done and it look just like them (like denzel’s) now how you gone f up the presidents

  42. Mr. Tell It How It Is

    obama keeps a clean caesar!!! They need to line my man up right

  43. Say What???

    Y’all are crazy, that looks like him, in fact, the wax figure looks ten times better then the real Obama. SMH. Y’all need to lighten the F*%K Up and go set down. SMH.

  44. Hubba

    The one in the Wash. DC Tussaud’s looks better. The complexion is better and the expression; it looks less like wax than this sucker.

  46. BOOOOOOOOO!!!!

    LOOKS MORE LIKE HAROLD FORD, Jr.

  47. alcee

    the eyes aren’t exactly right…

  48. daddy-d

    They have the smile and the ears down,not sure about the complexion and the hair.They did a better job on Tupac.

  49. JUST ME

    THEY MADE MY PRESIDENT COCK EYED!

    BUT IT LOOKS PRETTY GOOD, IS THIS THE ONE IN NYC?

  50. SugarhoneyIcedtea

    Now this is the hottest wax statue on earth!

  51. Anonymous

    Let’s scrutinize this….

    lips- black like they should be
    teeth- pretty big, but they’re about right. He has a bugs bunny smile.
    forehead- long and wide, nothing wrong here. But Obama’s hair line is not as receiving
    wrinkles- Obama does have wrinkles around his mouth and eyes when he smiles.
    chin-long, ears-big, both are definitely on point
    eyes-looks like he caught poison ivy. They are a little poofy when he smiles but not that poofy.
    hair- where did they get that from. Did some brotha in the hood donate that to them(honest question!)
    complexion- he looks like a white guy on a cold, winter day. You know when they turn all red and sh!t. Obama has more mahogany in his skin.

    And so ya’ll know, I find Obama to be very attractive and by no means am I trying to make fun of him…just the evil twin. lol @ #37. Oh yeah, did ya’ll check out the neck? bytch is long.

    Barry O’ Bomber…omber…omber…eh

  52. Chanizzle

    The eyes and the shape of the head are a little off but other than that its good.

  53. Why?

    that’s the worst wax figure madame tussaud’s has ever done…wow…

  54. fattygirl218

    the teeth look like his but thats about it!! his hair is not that long and his hairline is not that jagged. its not too too bad but nah it dont really look like him

  55. FirstLADY

    GET THE EYES RIGHT PEOPLE!!!!!

  56. akyra

    its good but he looks a lil light lol
    but as far as the smile on point

  57. UM...I GUESS

    c’mon now ppl… human beings constructed this wax frigure…therefore it cannot be PERFECT. it’s pretty accurate considering.. but there is something funny going on with the eyes. i think they are too close together and missing bottom (and upper now that i really look at it) lashes. hmm oh well, whatever the case this is an amazing honor!! love obama, can’t wait to witness the inauguration IN PERSON tuesday!! :)

  58. fools. all of ya.

    It looks him to me… but the bottom lip looks a lil too dark.

  59. Karen

    I think they lose it at the lips, but other than that, I think it kinda looks like him. Sometimes they get it dead-on, but this one is okay.
