Editor's note:
The Madame Tussauds team already had access to measurements of Craig, Connery, Moore, Dalton and Brosnan from previous figures but needed George Lazenby's to complete the picture. The star of
On Her Majesty's Secret Service was happy to oblige and gave the artists a sitting in Los Angeles in February 2015.
