Barcelona play maker, Lionel Messi is the latest sport figure to have his waxwork installed at Madame Tussauds Museum in New York.
The waxwork of the superstar footballer was unveiled on Tuesday, May 19, 2015, replicating his exploits in matches played during the 2014 World Cup campaign in Brazil. The waxwork of the Argentina captain took only four months to be completed with more than 250 measurements from both photo and video references used.
Messi has now joined the likes of Serena Williams and Muhammad Ali who also have their waxworks installed at the popular Museum.
