After almost a decade of wildlife 's warrior Steve Irwin passing, The Crocodile Hunter has been brought back to life by renowned team of sculptors at Madame Tussauds in London.

Head sculptor Daniel Woodley and his creative team worked closely with Irwin's family to achieve this realistic figure of the legend.

Steve died in 2006 after being pierced by a stingray barb while filming a documentary. What makes this realistic figure more special is the fact that it is wearing the clothes that The Crocodile Hunter owned and wore.

The wax figure would be flown to Autralia where will be a permanent addition to the Madam Tussauds in Sydney.

Steve really deserves this honor. I remember when my guests broke the news of his death to me at the hospital. It was just a day after I gave birth to my daughter. I will never forget that day. It was a big shock, but he is obviously in a better place. This will hopefully help his family feel better and always remember that Irwin's hard work will never be forgotten.
