The wax figures featured in The Wax Museum are constantly being changed and updated, with new wax figures regularly being added to our vast collection.
The Famous People
The Famous People area contains wax figures that are carefully crafted and dressed in authentically reproduced costumes of their times. From movie and music stars, to politicians and notable figures in history, you will surely recognise many of the faces in this area.
Chamber of Horrors
The Chamber of Horrors documents and dedicates its memory to the grim, staggering record of human cruelty throughout the ages. It contains spine chilling depictions of various torture techniques through history, and is the only type of its kind in the world.
Dioramas
The dioramas feature characters from Australian history and famous Nursery Rhymes. Admire the attention to detail on these pint sized displays. These are very popular with our younger visitors!
The Crown Jewels
The Wax Museum contains full size replicas of the Crown Jewels, commissioned by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II for her Coronation Rehearsals. Sparkling crowns, fabulous swords and beautiful sceptres and orbs!
Information About The Wax Figures
Our collection of wax figures at The Wax Museum is diverse and some of the oldest figures in the collection, including a figure of Madame Tussaud which is over 150 years old. Some of the the collection has been with us since The Wax Museum’s first location in Surfers Paradise in 1968.
Handling the Wax Figures
As our figures are made of wax, they need to be handled and stored with the utmost care. They are stored in glass displays and kept at controlled temperatures throughout the year.
Suppliers of our Wax Figures
We source our wax figures from various suppliers throughout the world; including the United States, Canada, China, Britain, Europe, South Africa, Australia and New Zealand. To commission a new wax figure costs around $60,000, so we are very selective as to what we ask for and the quality of the wax figures.
