Beheaded wax Hitler returns looking more dishevelled
Nine weeks after a visitor tore off the dictator's head, Madame Tussauds has repaired its wax figure of Adolf Hitler and put him back on display in Berlin. The new Hitler is protected by a thick wall, glass and two security guards to prevent a new assassination attempt. In addition, he looks even more dishevelled than the original figure.
Madame Tussauds had defied criticism that it was tasteless and inappropriate to display the figure of a man who caused so much suffering. A spokesperson stated: "Madame Tussauds is apolitical and neither comments on nor judges the people shown in the exhibition or what they did in the course of their life. The figures are selected according to their popularity or their significance in having a decisive impact on history, be that good or bad. Adolf Hitler represents a decisive part of Berlin's history that cannot be denied."
Interestingly, the appearance of the new figure has been changed slightly to make him seem even more pathetic. Hitler's hair is more dishevelled than before and his tie is loosened around his collar. He's also shown looking down rather than straight ahead, and the huge map of Europe has been removed from the wall next to him.

Amy Winehouse has been immortalized by Madame Tussauds in Wax
The singer's parents, Mitch and Janis, unveiled their daughter's wax figure at Madame Tussauds London on Wednesday, with her father calling its likeness "perfection."
Starpulse has something else to say about it...
Singer Amy Winehouse is unimpressed she has been immortalized in wax at London's Madame Tussauds Museum - reportedly branding the idea "crap".
The Back to Black hitmaker admits she was unavailable for a sitting for the waxwork, so the museum has crafted the statue from photographs.
But Winehouse was surprised to learn she would feature in the museum at all. She tells British magazine New!, "I thought you had to be dead almost before they made a wax of you."
