It was only a matter of time before the band that seems to have conquered the world are imortalised in wax at Madame Tussauds, the first boy band to be created by us since The Beatles’ figures back in 1964. A team of 40, including sculptors, moulders, hair stylists, colourists and wardrobe experts worked flat out for four months to create the figures which each cost £150,000 to make.
The One Direction figures are at Madame Tussauds London until July 11, 2013.
