The three-story museum was under construction for eight years before finally opening. It features 125 wax figures of famous celebrities - the first ones made for the location were of singer Beyoncé Knowles and actor Jamie Foxx, at a cost of approximately $350,000 (USD) each. Each wax figure has its own placard placed on a wall in close physical proximity to it, containing information about the portrayed figure. A few matching props have been placed near select figures for visitors to use while taking photos.
The biggest figure in the museum is King Kong. The figure sits inside the attraction.
Marilyn Monroe and Johnny Depp are among some of the figures used in the lobby to entice guests to enter the museum.
