ABBA The Museum has revealed its biggest news since its opening in May 2013. For exact copies in silicone of the ABBA members Frida, Agnetha, Björn and Benny dressed in their legendary stage costumes from the late 70's. Work on the figures has been going on for about a year by the talented artist Göran Lundström at Effektstudion in Stockholm.

The members of ABBA themselves have been intricately involved in the production of their replicas, with detailed measurements taken on all four, in order to come as close as possible to the way they looked back then. 

The silicone figures showcase true craftsmanship from head to toe. Each strand of hair was added by hand. Casts were taken of the hands of all four ABBA members, and subsequently sculpted. Hundreds of photographs were consulted in order to perfect the facial features and colour of their eyes, hair, eyebrows and teeth. Altogether a team of 35+ people worked on the figures to ensure the high quality craftsmanship commissioned by ABBA The Museum. 

Benny Andersson on the final results: “Wonderful mannequins, better looking than the originals.”
