    Hello, welcome to the Mannequin Museum. We pretend it's wax, but we're really quite bad at it. For example, it's about ninety degrees outside, and the door to our museum is wide open. It's quite warm in here. Most wax would melt, but nothing to worry about- everything here is plastic! That also explains why none of the mannequins looks like the stars. You know that saying, "quality not quantity"? Well, we've solved that problem by lacking both of these characteristics. There are virtually no mannequins in this hellhole. We are obviously quite cheap. But hey, for $13.95, you can also visit our crappy gift shop! That's right- we'll rip you off twice. So enjoy your stay here at the Hollywood Mannequin Museum (it will take probably around five or six minutes) and come back soon to our little piece of Hades soon!

    So silly - it's falling apart and things rarely resemble what they're supposed to but it's fun anyway. A little price-y.

    Most of the wax dummies are in an exhibit space that is decorated to fit a movie. Most are life like, but others seem fake. Overall it's a...

    A giant black hole of a tourist trap (which still manages to pull in those of us who live here..) We finally bit the bullet and decided to ...

    The Scene Stepping well beyond the realm of campy, the museum is classic Hollywood schlock at its best and worst. A distant second to an actual celebrity sighting, a visit is less about seeing the effigies than about being able to say that you were here. Just don't let it bother you that David Hasselhoff looks like he has jaundice--do what the locals do: Go in for a good laugh. The Goods Current favorites include a newly erected Hugh Hefner, flanked by ex-bunnies Marilyn Monroe and Pamela Anderson, and a disturbingly life-like Beatles. More than 200 celebrities are re-created here, captured somewhat accurately in wax. Exhibits include Hollywood's usual A-list stars, musicians, politicians and a modestly horrible house of horrors. Some of the displays are outdated, but in a kitschy way; those can be the most appealing. How else would you remember what Diana Rigg looked like?

    I like wax museums because they're completely absurd. When you think about it, it's inexplicable that 21st-century adults like me will actu...

    Very cool wax men. Kind of expensive for a group though. Did I mention how cool it is. Hard to walk by without the urge to go in
