Paired up with the release of New Moon on DVD, Twilight star Robert Pattinson got immortalized in wax today at Madame Tussauds in Times Square. MTV braved the scene and reports back that crazed, screaming fans stood in line for hours to see the $220,000 replica. This thing isn't going to last through the week; the museum allows touching and kissing! Bring your Purell, ladies.

At least his skin doesn't glow like a disco ball.

They should spray a fine misting of anthrax onto that waxwork, oughta thin out the horrible tweenager crowd... decrease the surplus fangirl population.

$220,000 for a wax figure. Isn't that a bit overpriced?

I just hope they make one of that kid, what's his name, that was featured here a few days ago. You know, the kid with the drastic combover on his forehead. The real famous tween dream kid that I forgot his name already.
