ORLANDO (CBSDFW.COM) - He's not in the Oval Office just yet, but Donald Trump's first wax figures have been created.

One is now on display at Ripley's Orlando Odditorium.

Visitors are already enjoying taking photos with it for free while it's in the lobby for a limited time.

Just as in real life, the wax Trump is polling at about 50 percent - loved by some visitors, loathed by others, according to Ripley's.

Ripley's Believe It Or Not! created three wax figures of the President-elect.

They will go on display at Louis Tussaud's Palace of Wax in Grand Prairie, Louis Tussaud's Waxworks in San Antonio and Niagara Falls, Ontario.

Ripley's F/X team started creating the first Trump figure about four months ago, according to a Ripley's Believe It Or Not! news release.

Each is sculpted by hand by a team of artists, using photographs to create the likeness. Each figure takes about six weeks to complete.

The Trump figures will soon stand with other presidential wax figures.
