The Christopher Reeve waxwork was displayed solo in the exit stairwell of Tussauds for many years. It was originally adorned with a genuine production made costume with the exception of a lightweight cape to accommodate a rippling effect (generated by a fan placed beneath) before being moved to the 'Movie Room' and stripped of the real suit where it resides today in an inferior poor quality copy (bottom pic). I first saw this a teenager in the late Eighties and it so captured my imagination I was determined to one day have one of my own. Check the Ultimate Reeve Superman 1:1 progress thread for its progress...
