There's Another Jim Parsons in the World: Cloning around, Sheldon Cooper meets his match.
The Big Bang Theory’s Sheldon Cooper is seeing double. Last Friday, Jim Parsons revealed his custom-made wax figure for the first time with people like fellow Big Bang co-star Simon Helberg in attendance. The real life replica will be shipped to Madame Tussauds Orlando on May 4, 2015 for the attraction’s grand opening. Here's a quick Q&A of some select helpful info from People's article about Jim's new body double. You can find photos and more details when you read People's coverage of the story.
So, what makes Jim’s wax figure so special?
Well, for starters, the actor donated an actual outfit of his from Big Bang to give his wax figure the perfect, personal touch. And, about 150 measurements of the actor were taken of his face, head and entire body to bring his figure to life.
How long did it take to create?
Six weeks.
How much does the head of the wax figure weigh?
9.9 pounds, similar to that of a real human head.
What was Jim super impressed by?
The detail, incredible accuracy and precision of the final result. He said, "From the color of the eyes to the facial figures, you can tell how hard the artists and sculptors work to achieve such a realistic portrayal."
If Sheldon was blown away by the expertise that went into this unique piece of art, we're certain it's pretty close to perfection.
