It truly does look just like him.
Is the couch made out of wax also?
Nope. Couch is real. In tussauds now they encourage you to get right up close to the waxworks. In this case they want you to sit down next to him for a selfie. I had a picture of myself with George W. From their Niagara falls location, but it got lost in a hard drive crash. Just as well.
