Halo's Master Chief is set to be the first ever video game character to be immortalized in wax at Madame Tussauds.

The Master Chief waxwork stands at an impressive (and roughly accurate) 7-foot 2-inches tall, with an approximate finished weight of 275lbs.

A total of ten studio artists worked on the massive figure, dedicating an estimated 892 man-hours on the stoic soldier.

Total man-hours included 687 hours for sculpting, 168 hours for moulding and 37 hours for painting. Materials included over 1000 pounds of clay.

Showing in Vegas first, Master Chief Petty Officer SPARTAN 117 will make his way to London's Tussauds soon.
