- Nohpex, on 11/21/2008, -1/+297lol the wax figure of Amy Winehouse looks better than she does
- mr0r4ng3, on 11/22/2008, -1/+265The backgrounds and picture clarity are sort of a give away...
- jimbo100, on 11/22/2008, -0/+206Paris Hilton loooks like she's made out of wax anyway.
- LaurencePike, on 11/21/2008, -13/+218I could wax off to a couple of these..

yeah i'm lazy. Wana' fight about it? - troybulldogs9, on 11/21/2008, -5/+122Wow, Miley Cyrus' wax figure, not too flattering. Not that I think 15 year old girls are attractive or anything.

- Jough, on 11/21/2008, -9/+113I wish I had those 5 minutes of my life back.
- GemStar38, on 11/21/2008, -2/+94I got a couple wrong
- P8ntBal1551, on 11/21/2008, -10/+102that was stupid as *****
its so easy - 4321234, on 11/22/2008, -0/+86Actually, I like your version better.
- DickyT83, on 11/22/2008, -2/+68I do.
- inactive, on 11/21/2008, -1/+62Where is my torch when I need it?
- EmperorChow, on 11/22/2008, -0/+52Jim Carey and Prince William ones are ridiculous
- CoreyTamas, on 11/22/2008, -1/+47Paris Hilton is the only entry that should give readers the choice between "Wax" and "Wax".
- JoHnxXxKIddxXx, on 11/21/2008, -9/+53there all fake!
- iptib, on 11/21/2008, -5/+45Wax on, wax off. Very good.
- inactive, on 11/22/2008, -0/+39They're
- dha07030, on 11/22/2008, -1/+39Where?
- MyDiggIsBig, on 11/22/2008, -0/+36moral of the story.... celebrities wear TONS of makeup
- teh_spazz, on 11/22/2008, -0/+29Poor Yao Ming. They really ***** him on this one.
- staffell, on 11/22/2008, -0/+26The reason I got some wrong was not because the wax works were so good, but because the photos were so bad.
- snafflepaffle, on 11/22/2008, -0/+23It would have helped if the real pictures they used didn't have obvious signs of realness like paparazzi in the background.
- ronjohnson, on 11/22/2008, -3/+25Take away, if they reflect light, they are probably wax
- Secret7000, on 11/22/2008, -0/+21Hm. I was expecting this to be difficult.
- akula89, on 11/22/2008, -0/+21wow, some of these are laughable (ie: beyonce)
- Sneezyx, on 11/22/2008, -1/+21Their!

- AyaJulia, on 11/22/2008, -0/+17As are the teeth, eyes, skin shine, and poses. /shrug... Somehow still got me to click through 52 slides. I've got to find better ways to spend my Saturday mornings.
- occasus, on 11/22/2008, -1/+17It's interesting how most people answer correctly when someone devoted their life to make these things look real (though backgrounds and facial expressions are good clues).
- Blablah01, on 11/22/2008, -1/+17Then we're all made of wax...
- dafragsta, on 11/22/2008, -4/+19It's because they are so firmly placed in the uncanny valley. They look more real than most video games, but they are easily identifiable as wax figures. It didn't take long for me it figure out that you can't see much in the way of skin imperfections and the way that wax holds light is not the same as the way skin does. Wax seems to almost hold it and diffuse it inside, whereas skin is pretty thick and opaque and has more defined shadows. It's also just a tad shiner than wax as well, when a flash hits it.
- Neiby, on 11/22/2008, -0/+15That artistic rendition of a dead Amy Winehouse from a couple of days ago looks better than she does.
- twishart, on 11/22/2008, -1/+15I don't mind everything on seperate pages, as long as it's pretty clear and simple to get to the next page - the ad banners at the top had a delay in loading, so you either couldn't just keep your mouse in one spot to keep clicking, or you'd hover over the link to load the next page, and the ad would load in it's place; you'd end up clicking the ad instead.
CLEVER GIRL, INTERNET. - pinkcherry, on 11/22/2008, -0/+14http://www.myparkmag.co.uk//images/cms/191108-amy2 ...

Holy crap she is beginning to bare a strong resemblance to Keith Richards. - twishart, on 11/22/2008, -2/+15Buried for inaccuracy - the real Amy Winehouse IS made of wax.
- SasaLukac, on 11/22/2008, -1/+14half those girls are more plastic than the wax figures...
and the beyonce one was as bad as the prince william one was good - jetboyterp, on 11/22/2008, -0/+12What's really creepy...is that in Paris Hilton's case, real and wax are both fakes. They're interchangeable...
- ccL1, on 11/22/2008, -0/+11Holy crap. I got everything right except one. Carrie Underwood totally threw me off.
- booshack, on 11/22/2008, -0/+11It's hard to fool the human brain in this regard. We are way better at recognizing our own species than you think. Game designers call this "the uncanny valley", and it is the reason why it will be decades until humans are believably simulated in 3D, regardless of computer perfomance.
- TheOneTrueGod, on 11/22/2008, -2/+13more like "who's jpeg and who's artefact"
- P8ntBal1551, on 11/22/2008, -1/+12and the fake ones weren't as shiny as tin foil
- netneutrality, on 11/22/2008, -0/+10You should have waited to post that comment then it would have seemed less creepy. She'll turn 16 at midnight tonight.
- DaHuuuuuudge, on 11/22/2008, -0/+10Why would American assume torch meant blowtorch?
- therightclique, on 11/22/2008, -1/+11It was impossible not to be. As good as they were, they weren't THAT good.
- cave, on 11/22/2008, -1/+11Ahhh almost had a perfect score, but I messed up on Jim Carey. :(
- bullhead2007, on 11/22/2008, -1/+1152 pages. ***** that.
