Following the debut of not one, but five Jimmy Fallon wax figures on NBC's "The Tonight Show", the figures have made their way across the United States and are now being displayed in Madame Tussauds locations across the country. Fans can see the Jimmy Fallon wax figures in New York, San Francisco, Washington, Hollywood and Orlando (when it opens on May 4th, 2015). For the first time in history, Madame Tussauds has unveiled five unique wax figures of a single celebrity.

The figures were debuted not only to mark Fallon's one year anniversary behind "The Tonight Show" desk, but also to celebrate the newest Madame Tussauds location in Orlando, set to open May 4th, 2015. This is where the fifth Jimmy Fallon wax figure will be housed.

"We are thrilled to welcome Jimmy Fallon to five of our U.S. Madame Tussauds attractions, including our newest Orlando attraction opening in May this year," said Janine DiGioacchino, Divisional Director, Midway North America, MERLIN Entertainments Group. "Jimmy is beloved by fans across the world and we look forward to offering so many of our visitors the opportunity to engage with such an entertainment icon."

In celebration of the release, Madame Tussauds is excited to also announce the launch of their #FallonLipSyncBattle and #MTFallonSelfie contests. These contests give fans the opportunity to enter for a chance to win a trip to the all-new, soon-to-open Madame Tussauds in Orlando, or a trip to one of the following amazing locations: New York, Hollywood, San Francisco, Orlando or Washington DC to see the Jimmy Fallon Figures in person.

Dressed in his classic yet laid back style, each figure was meticulously made by Madame Tussauds studio artists over the course of four months. Jimmy Fallon worked closely with the Madame Tussauds team who spent hours sitting with the star taking over 250 measurements, identifying exact eye color, and detailing each strand of hair.
