“Game of Thrones” star Peter Dinklage has been immortalized in wax at San Francisco’s Madame Tussauds.
“I didn’t believe this was real, and now I do believe it’s real. I haven’t told anyone but my wife because maybe I’m going to just invite them to San Francisco and freak them out,” Dinklage said, in a press release sent out by the museum.
Madame Tussauds’ people spent two hours in New York, taking more than 250 measurement of the actor’s features. They sent the information to their people in London, where 20 artists spent four months creating the figure, which is valued at $350,00. Dinklage, who plays Tyrion Lannister on the popular HBO series, then donated one of his own tuxedo’s for the character.
The figure goes on display Tuesday at Madame Tussauds’ Fisherman’s Wharf location.
