Madame Tussauds have finally revealed their terrifying waxwork of the soon-to-be-inaugurated Donald Trump — a moment we’ve all been waiting for with bated breath. The figure took 20 skilled artists 6 months to create and it cost a whopping £150,000. (A seemingly hefty price to pay for a toupéd fucktrumpet… which is still our favourite insult to date).
We’ve officially unveiled @realdonaldtrump‘s wax figure, ahead of his inauguration on Friday. #WaxTrump pic.twitter.com/P7h28cHQLP

Some of the observations were, a) hilarious and b) scarily accurate.
@MadameTussauds @realDonaldTrump his neck kinda looks like a va-jay-jay.

And some people had their own ideas about how the figure should have looked.
@MadameTussauds @Ma00204482 @realDonaldTrump Disappointed you’ve not shown him tweeting.

While a lot of people congratulated the effort…
@MadameTussauds @realDonaldTrump amazing how much they nailed the essence of his twatishness. Well played!

…others weren’t too convinced.
@MadameTussauds @realDonaldTrump not orange enough.
