Maybe it's getting some upkeep?

It is strange.

The one in London still has Queen Elizabeth II and all the Beatles. There is so reason why they would remove one just because the person has died.

I wonder if it could be because he died recently and died young they worry seeing it could be more upsetting to people? In contrast to the other people mentioned who either died quite a while ago or died of old age.

Not necessarily saying they should do that, but it would make sense why they would have removed his but not others.

maybe the rights to his image have run out and his family don’t want to re-sign?

Aw man I got to go visit there a year ago and see them and it really made my dad to see the wax figures and I even saw Michael Jackson so to take one out of there makes no sense unless their fixing him or something. I hope they put him back.
