1D fans happy to queue for 'surreal' up-close encounter with their wax heroes at Madame Tussaud's One Direction exhibit Johanna Donaghy grabs a selfie with the Madame Tussaud's waxwork dummy of One Direction heart-throb Harry Styles. THEY came, they saw, they screamed. It might not be One Direction, but it's as close as many of these 1D fans will get to their idols, and nothing - not even school - would get in the way of them "meeting" the famous five this morning. Braving an early morning start, the girls lined up for hours for the unveiling of Madame Tussaud's latest - and one of their most hyped - additions: the boys from One Direction. Excited One Directioners enjoy their once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to view, touch and pose (and kiss) the lifelike figures. And with plenty of screaming, sing-a-longs and cheering as the curtain dropped, they wasted no time getting up close to the group, posing for many a selfie with their favourite. Johanna Donaghy, 13, who said she will see them play four times on their current tour, said it was "surreal" to get so close to the figures. One Direction's relentless fans Band says they've been trapped in their hotels during Aussie tour Harry Styles spends night on the town with fans "It's so amazing because they look so real, and it's so cool to actually see them so close, you see them in pictures but to see something so close to them being real is amazing," she said. Diehard fans dressed in One Direction memorabilia eagerly queue around the Madame Tussauds Sydney entrance in anticipation. Chloe Boyling, 15, left her home in Greystanes, in Sydney's West, at 5am to make sure she was first in line, and had lined up outside the museum in Darling Harbour since 6am. "I was so excited and I really wanted to see them first," she said "Harry's my favourite, I love him so much, he's perfect, I love his smile." The British pop group is made up of Niall Horan, Zayn Malik, Liam Payne, Harry Styles and Louis Tomlinson who met while competing in the 2010 British season of X-Factor. The lifelike figures of Horan, Malik, Payne, Styles and Tomlinson feature the band's trademark hairstyles and sport outfits donated by the group themselves.
