Not all wax figures are created equal and sometimes that's part of the fun.

Madame Tussauds in London just unveiled a new wax figure of Euphoria and Spider-Man star Zendaya, but fans say it doesn't look like her.

This isn't the first time a wax version of the actress has been made, but this one was a little controversial for people online.

"That's not Zendaya...This looks more like a mix of Kylie Jenner and Nicki Minaj😭," said one commenter on Madame Tussauds Instagram post.

Others took to Twitter to share their thoughts on the wax figure.

"Is zendaya's wax statue mad at me?" asked one Twitter user.

The process of designing and making a wax figure is complicated, to say the least. It involves a lot of measurements, sculpting and painting, taking over 800 hours to make one sculpture, according to Madame Tussauds.

Madame Tussauds has quite a few versions of Zendaya. If you squint, you can kind of see the resemblance?

This isn't the first time fans thought a wax figure from the company didn't look right.

In 2019, Madame Tussauds unveiled their Ariana Grande figure, but fans weren't impressed.

Cue the fan reactions.

Ari shared her reaction too, and it seems like she agrees that the figure is a "Thank U, Next."

Zendaya has not said how she feels about her latest wax figure, but hopefully, she likes it a little more than her fans do.
