The famous wax museum of Madame Tussaud has finally set their Sydney brand in Darling Harbour. It features Aussie celebrities such as Nicole Kidman, Cate Blanchett, and a lot more.

It took almost 560,000 hours to work on a total of 70 figures that are on display. Hywel Mathais, the general manager of the Sydney-based museum, described this work of art and venue to be a great symbol of history, culture and heritage.

He also emphasized that all the hard work consists of around 60 artists to just work on a single wax figure. There was also a team dedicated and committed to do all the retouches to make it even more perfect.

Other icons featured also include Hollywood greats like Angelina Jolie, Leonardo DiCaprio, and even Oprah Winfrey. Of course Paul Hogan, the star of 'Crocodile Dundee' is featured too.

The very first Madame Tussauds museum first opened about 200 years ago and has expanded from London and throughout other parts of the world.
