Madame Tussauds Outside of the fact that it is rediculously expensive for what it is Madame Tussauds still is a fun place to visit. Save your visit for when you have a friend from out of town and then head down and tourist out. Bring a camera as you will end up wanting to take pictures even if you aren't normaly a picture taker. PROS: Fun CONS: Expensive

Don't assume anyone you look at is real! The wax figures here are incredible, and the way they are mixed in with the visiting crowds will absolutely have you doing a double take to see if they are real or not. Inevitably, some jokers will try and pose and pretend to be a wax figure just to scare you - enjoy and laugh as it's part of the experience!

Prices are high Madame Tussaud's Wax Museum is a lot of fun -- the wax statues are so real, it's incredible. People of all ages will enjoy this place -- both kids and adults. There are celebrities, politicians, historical figures -- all created with lifelike features. It is centrally located -- right in the middle of Times Square. I just wish the admission prices weren't so expensive. I've had a lot of out of town visitors who would have loved to go -- but the high prices just didn't seem worth it when there is so much else ... read more

If You Think A Bunch Of Wax Is Boring, Think Again! I LOVE Madame Tussauds museum. The place is huge. It has many different rooms featuring many different famous people. The first room is a bunch of A list celebs at a cocktail party, like Roin Williams, Whoppie Goldberg, Lenny Kravitz, Samuel L. Jackson... the list goes on and on. It is amazing how REAL they look. You can get up close and personal with each was sculpture. I have fooled many people with pictures from this museum who think I've met them for real! As you keep t... read more

Wax figures, What a concept! I've been to Madam Tussauds Wax museum in New York and in London and while both feature celebrities made out of wax, this one in Times Square seems a bit bigger and more outragious..It's almost scary how lifelike these figures are..One of my favorite things to do is take photos standing near one or more of the figures as if engaging in conversation...It's fun to show the photos off when I get home without an explanation as to how and where the picture was taken..:) PROS: Fun and interesting place... read more

An interesting place to hang out... This place is semi-entertaining. I think it is ridiculously over-priced, however (as is everything in New York City!!!). Do not go on a weekday, as they do not offer all of the entertaining attractions on weekedays. The "learn to dance like Beyonce" attraction, and the Derek Jeter baseball attraction were not open when we were there because it was a weekday. You have to pay an extra $5 for the Van Helsing haunted house, but it's very much worth it...the haunted house was the best part of t... read more

Wax I have often seen the Samuel L. Jackson figurine outside the museum. On a whim I decided to pay the admission fee, which was way overpriced if you ask me and see what all the hubbub was about. To be honest it was very boring. Just a bunch of was figures of todays so called stars standing around and a bunch of television sets in the front showing scenes from movies. I wouldn't recommend.

madame tussauds wax museum this museum is really wonderful. the figures are for the most part life like, and the over all setup of the place is great. although a little pricey, it is well worth it for the photos and experience. mostly containing celebrities, there is a small area where madame tussaud herself is shown at the beginning of her career. PROS: CONS: pricey

Very Good Museum This is a whole-family experience museum, somewhere where people can go again and again. The wax statues are amazingly lifelike, to the point where you can't determine what you look like. Certain exhibits stay the same; others constantly change. Pictures are allowed, and the entire museum is very hands-on and entertaining, including an American Idol karaoke exhibit where Simon gives you real-live criticism. Prices are bit high, but overall this is a ton of family fun!
