"The Beatles have always been an all-time favourite at the attraction," Kelly Mak, general manager of Madame Tussauds Hong Kong, said in a statement.
"We are honoured to launch the new figures of the 'Fab Four' with the classic setting during this symbolic year, especially for all their fans out there. This is definitely an exciting addition to the attraction and we are looking to bring more new music icons to jam up the stage with them," Mak added.
