Sighting “wear and tear,” the company defended the 86ing,

“With no ropes or barriers to stop them, thousands of fans have had their photographs taken with him since then — but it has taken its toll.”

Likely story! Madame Tussauds claims the figure has been damaged over the years, and despite regular maintenance,

“it no longer does justice either to the star or to the attraction, and so we have decided to remove it”

Let’s see how Justin’s fans react to this waxy mess!
