Irish National Wax Museum feuding with Madame Tussauds over McGregor waxwork

Gas.

You may remember some time ago that Ireland's National Wax Museum unveiled their Conor McGregor waxwork. The response was, let's be honest, mixed as many failed to see the resemblance between the world famous MMA fighter and the lad who had shown up to represent him in the Dublin based museum. In case you need to jog your memory, here's the National Wax Museum McGregor waxwork. Stunning. The waxwork was claimed as the first McGregor figure in the world, so it's no surprise then that the National Wax Museum were absolutely going to push this thing as far as they could. And hey, Tony - McGregor's dad - said that he liked it and he sees his son far more often than you or I ever would so he probably knows what he's talking about. It's understandable then that the lads over at the National Wax Museum were fairly annoyed when Madame Tussauds Blackpool decided to go ahead and announce that they, in fact, were in possession of the first Conor McGregor waxwork in the world. How very dare they. They took to Facebook to make their announcement via a very fancy video. You may have noticed that Blackpool's McGregor is, eh, somewhat slightly more true to life than the National Wax Museum's version. Like, he's topless and about to take a punch to the face - you don't get more McGregor than that. Still though, National Wax Museum weren't about to take this lying down and they took to Facebook to set the record straight regarding who had the world's first McGregor waxwork. They wrote: "The world's first??? Why you lie?" followed by some upsidedown smiley face emojis and a link to a Sky Sports article. Blackpool, however, clapped back with what could probably be described as the harshed wax-based drag of the year. They said: "Yes, the world's first as the image on your link is clearly not Conor McGregor." Harsh. The National Wax Museum then responded by saying that Tony McGregor loved the waxwork, that he said it was a work of art, and that whoever runs the Wax Museum's social media's mam thinks they're cool and that's all that matters really. They're not wrong, like.
