For the first questions, if I am correct, wax figures don't become humans, now they're just moving pieces of wax. But Ahkmenrah and the taxidermied animals come back to life because they were alive at some point. I think Dexter can pee because he's now alive again, so even though he technically doesn't have internal organs anymore, he can still do things that require them because of magic.
The tablet was blessed by the egyptian gods Thoth, Ra, Osiris, and Ptah. Possibly others, but that's just based on the hieroglyphs found on it. (there's a translation on tumblr). That's how the tablet was made magical.
Abe Lincoln didn't become flesh colored because the tablet brought the dead and inanimate objects to life. That doesn't extend to making them human. That was why Teddy was neatly cut in half when he was run over by the horses in the first movie. The magic can only do so much.
1. No. Made out of wax still, but the magic makes them people.
2. See above.
3. Magic. Also comedic for the purpose of the plot.
4. Magic. Implied it’s supposed to raise protectors for the pharaoh, like the giant jackal guards. Probably what they did(this is headcanon) is they made statues, used the tablet, and protected the pharaoh in their sleep. Could also be used for war, maybe. Also potentially for the pharaohs to “live forever” since the tablet can resurrect them.
5. Yes, it’s magic. The magic is related to the Egyptian Moon God, the third movie goes more into depth with it’s creation and discovery.
6. Same “building” generally. Size of said building doesn’t matter, as long as it’s a building.
7. Within the building.
8. Besides the two messes the first night and the last night in movie 1, he didn’t explain them. He almost got fired for the first one. Not sure about the other movies, but I can say it wouldn’t be very fun to watch several hours of Larry being interrogated by the FBI.
9. Yes. They remember it all. Teddy remembered where he was made, and the Pharaoh recalled being in a British museum.
10. It’s implied, yes.
11. He’s a wax figure of Teddy Roosevelt.
12. Well, he was a statue. Not wax built to look human.
13. We don’t know. I doubt the characters would like to test that theory.
A lot of these questions could be answered by watching all 3 of the movies again.
