The most curious thing, as you can see in the image, when the red canvas was unfolded to show the figure, the authentic Wozniak (on the left of the photograph), remained still imitating his reproduction, since he has always been characterized for being a guy with a very good humor and a very affable person. After this presentation, the co-founder of Apple spoke of how surprised he was with the artistic creation process of the figure:

It's amazing to see how accurately they reproduce every little detail during a five hour process […] The perspective from all angles and the human work behind it make for a realistic look. I did not know that they had to get so involved, I thought they would take a photograph and print it with a computer or something like that.

Wozniak she also said it was an honor to have a wax figure, as she had always wanted one, mentioning superhero wax figures that he saw in wax museums when he was younger.

I love technology, it makes me feel like I am a superhero in some way, I am much stronger than I would be without it. It is a process of imagination, believing things that do not exist in the real world, but in your world, in your head. That is when we have the ability to realize them and make them come true.
