12/17 updated (with MY STORY on sale at the back!!)

Personally i think it doesn't really look exactly like ayu..~

I don't think it looks like Ayu either... doesn't even look japanese.

Looks like a hawaiian.

after dissapointed of her sales..
i just laugh very much when i see this pics..
OMG that is not ayu!!!!! just a make up and hair looks like ayu
the other..what is that?!!
cant believe it!!
eat that oriental daily..if yourselves being a statue and the statue is doesnt like you what will you do?!
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA..i just cant stop laughing

o.O
ok, it reminds me of Ayu!
But.... it doesnt really look like her!

it is really disgusting, they are ashaming ayu,~~~~AYU was extremely terrified and frustrated (according to the newspaper) after she saw this statue, i think i will go check it out myself to see whether it looks like ayu or not as it is in Hong KONG^^~
i wonder why ayu did not assent to come to Hong Kong and take part in the celebration of her statue.. i wanna see her

HAHAHA, her aye are quite the same, but that jaw, and the nose!!!! well, not ayu, definetely, they could have done better, but remind that ayu was not too cooperative, so, what can we expect?

O_o.. she needs to hire some better staff >_<

Poor Ayu :thud

:grumpy Disappointed too !! I saw the full picture at the other forum & .... Ayu looks very rude. I hope they should fix it. Anyway I will go & have a look. :shakehead

arrggghhh that looks scary!
i was sooo excited b4 i clicked into this thread!!! owelll!
very disappointed though :(

I think it's the nose or lips that makes it not look like ayu

ummm truthfully i think it looks like a transexual...sorri if this offends anyone, but i think it looks like a male version of Ayu :(
oh and does anyone have the full pic?

hmm, it reminds me of Ayu ,too but the statue doesn't look like her!!

hmm....i dont really know what to say apart from that i can understand why Ayu didnt like the look of it >__<

There's something that does not look like her... maybe her cheekbones... not sure

Honestly, i refer Hamasaki Ayumi stay in Japan to focus on her next comin' up single then gofin' there. :o After all why will she ever wanna go to a country that always create lies 'bout her at all the time? I dun't see the reason why. If she'd go there the poeple will give a kind of eyes to her since the NEWS always... :tired Anyway, who's that wax statue? :eyebrow

^ yeah her cheekbones and look carefully at her lips it sticks out too much >_<"

Whoa.. it looks like she wants to kill someone!

The problem propably is - her mouth goes too much forward compared to nose, which is scragged! :gnash

the eyes...just not her.

It does remind me of her, but it's not a good likeness at all.

Wow. They made her look caucasian and not lookasian at all. No wonder Ayu was disappointed with it.

I thought the report in my local newspaper was exaggerating it, but now that I've seen the statue, I think Ayu's unhappiness is somewhat reasoned.

Then again, if she didn't go down to get measured, then it's really her problem.

i cant exactly tell why the statue is bad.....maybe it is the skin colour? or it is because of the outline of the face that makes it so un-ayu?

beurk -____- poor Ayu...

OMG that's scary! It looks nothing like her aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah do a better job next time!

Poor Ayu my bum.

If she didn't go there for their people to take the proper measurements and do the facial scannings .. its only her fault for it to turn out like that.

It looks like they mixed some of J.Lo's wax doll in it

People are also saying that it doesn't look asian ... neither does Ayu lol

The lips, nose, faceshape are correct. But the eyes are totally off. Which makes her look like someone else...

The eyes...not Ayu's eyes. At all.

disapointed to, it reminds me of her a bit but doesnt look like her in my point of view

eww... ayu the wax dragqueen...

That thing is scary!!!

At least we now know why Ayu wasn't too happy with it, looks pretty bad :(

I'm not surprised she was terrified. That thing is terribly UGLY! I doesn't look the slightest bit like Ayu..I would be ashamed.

I agree with QTMashi, it does look like a transexual >_<

lmao =x take it with a grain of salt!

Now that you've mentioned this... OMG!

I have to hammer the image outta my mind.
Know the draqs playing Britney all the time? I'm thinking Ayu version. :headache

A full body shot from that BBS:

that is just...what the heck is that?!
i'd be pissed if i were ayu >.>
like what jade said..it doesn't look asian..more like caucasian-alike

I love the outfit they chose for the wax figure...but the face just does not look right. I suppose if Ayu was uncooperative with Maddame Tusaude's (sp?), then they may have done the best they could, but then again, would they even MAKE it if they did not have the proper measurements?

I can tell it's Ayumi, but it's just not as realistic as most of the wax figures I have seen. It kind of scares me to be honest...I can imagine that creepy Wonderland song playing while this freaky wax figure comes to life or something... :thud

Whoa, scary image of the century....

Also, I own the magazine where she's wearing that outfit. I agree that at least it was a good choice.

OMG I can't look at that thing for more than 2 seconds.. it's SO SCARY. The eyes really freak me out. It looks like Ayu, and yet it doesn't. I don't like it. I've seen some statues that look ALIVE, but this looks like Ayu was found lying dead on the floor of her bathtub -.-

It doesn't look like her but if the report of Ayumi not going in for full measurements is true, then that would explain why it doesn't look like her. Sending in measurements by your staff simply doesn't cut it for wax statues. I think the person who made the figure did the best they could with what info they had.

It reminds me of the Kano sisters. If I was ayu, I would be throwing a fit as well. It's manly and hideous.

That's true. Does Ayu's staff REALLY know how to measure for a wax figure? Probably not.

Whoa~~
That wax statue is going to give me nightmares. >o<

It looks nothing like Ayu.

Obviously you haven't read the full report either.

Pardon?

Because obviously I did read the report if you are referring to this thread. I didn't mean it to come out that she was throwing a fit, I know that she was just unhappy with it. I'm saying, if I was her, I would be throwing a fit. So obviously, you need to learn to not be so quick to make stupid assumptions. Thanks.

It's not really Ayu's body that's the problem, I think most people are criticizing the FACE...which is the most important part imo.

As for the part about ayu doesnt look like an asian, even though she looks very caucasian, she still has that hint about Asianness even though she hides it. It looks like someone shot Ayu and they got her face that way...

omg! that statue looks nothing like ayu...it looks so bad!

the eyes and hair is messed up! i reallllly wanna go to the peak and take pics with it though!!!

LOL!

If you were Ayu you would be mad? At them for making it look bad, no doubt. Well if you were Ayu you should have gone to the pros for them to scan your face and make sure it comes out right .. rather than sending measurements that your own staff did.

its like ayu and fayray put together.....

Does anyone have more pictures?

hahahaha ayumi looks like mexican actress Leticia Calderón

hahahahahahah

http://img134.exs.cx/img134/675/ayulety.jpg

Ayumi and Leticia!! hahaha XD

its Ayu's fault, sorry to say..:-/

wut do they mean by "rescue"..o-o

hahaha XD
The wax statue makes Ayu look so old. :gnash

I still see a bit of J.Lo in it

i think it looks abit hmmmm >.<
the eyes and the nose seems alright
but the mouth and the face maybe abit off??

oh well X_x

I see a bit of J Lo in it too.
And now I can't look at the statue without it reminding me of The Wedding Planner. :D

I think it looks bad. And creepy O_O

some add ons...

I think the face looks slightly more like Ayu at this angle.

well.. at least you can tell it's her.. haha... it's pretty good. you never can get stuff like that perfect.

yikes, thanks for the pics but they look even less flattering :(

That thing's got even more make-up than the real thing.

I don't blame the creators for having to make do with what's they're given though.

All the other pictures make it look just as bad, except for the overhead shot. That looks A LITTLE like her.

hm...it would have looked so much better if Ayu had given them the measurments and scans..but she is a busy person..so I can't take sides on this matter.

She looks A LOT like J.Lo, I agree. In that big head shot I see it.

It looks like AYu. I have drawn Ayu before.

statue doesnt even look like her.. in fact it looks horrible..
c'mon!! i thought u guyz r PROS!! cant u do a better job? lol

It really doesn't look much like her but, like other people said, if she had her staff send the measurements instead of having the people at Madam Tussauds to them, it's her own fault.

Do you think there is a possibility that her staff wasn't lying when they said she's busy? Do you not realize how her schedule is _all the time_.

I'm sure ayu's staff sent the measurements not only for her convenience but the museum's as well. Do you think she would honestly make the situation more problematic than what it already was?

hair is awful...face doesn't really resemble her :(

It reminds me of Susan Lucci... a soap star...

they better make ayu smiles...i think it'll be a good one...and don't use this pose........standing pose should be good..i give it 7/10

Yep I kinda look at this at several perspectives instead of blaming one or the other. Incredibly funny that a lot of people are getting the HK news as if they're being neutral the whole time. What if they are being partial? They made it seem like ayu was the one causing the problem and that it was her fault, c'mon. Ayu might have put some resistance but that doesn't mean it was completely unjustified. This year she faced a lot of problems regarding er company, it was not like everything was going fine for her and she just snubbed everything. In the end they did send the measures and it didn't turn out very good but hey the wax figure can still be modified and that's what they're gonna do. It is not like they're blaming this or that in the artists who made the figure they just wanna put a little of their touch as well because they work constantly with ayu and they know her better than the wax figure project. But by reading some coments here it kinda sounds like a fight between both. It is extremely interesting for the wax figure museum that ayu looks as much real as possible, it's not like the fact that ayu's staff want the figure to look better will be a bad thing for the museum heh...in life we have to work as a team not individuals. Ayu's staff is even using their make up artists to help on making the figure look better. Who will know ayu's face better than them?

lol.. BIG disappointment o_O

The lips look fine, its just the eyes....... :shakehead

Hair, eyes and nose look all different.

the wax figure is not like ayu

o_O. it doesn't really look like her.

Who is this? ^^;;;

horrible workmanship i should say... come on should at least have seen her before right... the face part is not hers i think... her nose is so fake... no wonder she kicking a big fuss over it... if i was her i will burn the whole museum :grumpy

Ew that doesn't even look like her. In fact, it looks really, really ugly. :bbarf

ok now i think it is the eyes that is wrong. they slant too much upwards

it looks like a transexual yes.

my brother said it looks like a sex doll...-_-"

I have serious doubt with Ayu's make-up artists to begin with...they just have bad taste, alot of the time.

the face shape doesnt look like her and the hair, looks sooo messy, dont like this hair style

makes her look mean...;;

now dat the other pic loads i really think the HEAD
is very wrong U_U speacialy in 2nd image

well.. it will be a non-selling, undesirable one.... -_-|||

HAHAHAHAhAHAHAHAHAHAHAhAH
can`t stop laughing, what for a ugly wax figure.
I think the guy who made this is obviously blind....
:eyebrow

^what does the creator has to do with this at all?...i mean didnt ayu sent her staff to do HER work?...yet still if they wanted her they could go to japan and do it while she was doing something, how long would it take to measure ur body...10 minutes is way to much so yeah...the face scans...well i dunno, the responsabilities is of both sizes...so yeah

NOW as for the statue...
it looks FAKE that's all i have to say.

oh yeah she wore those shoes at the MTV Japan Awards 2004 rite?

I find that statue scary.

How dare they? :eek It's disgusting :curse

im glad her people are trying to fix it.

looks too english

Gosh, its terrible.

Well and they also could use a lighter lipstick. That light pink one ayu sometimes wears. That would do wonders. And the hair should be adjusted a little.

I want that statue! It would fit so well in my room, sitting on my couch. :) And I could talk to her and give her hugs. lol.

LOL rofl!!!!!! she is one stoned ayu lol

scary man!

This...really doesn't look good.

Im quite sad that ayu donated such a beautiful dress ...

creepy!
