    I went last month actually, and I didn`t think it was too bad. It wasn`t the best or anything, but it was ok. In the pictures earlier, most of the statues look rubbish, but I think that has to do with the flash on the camera. When you`re there in person, the lighting is different and you don`t really notice that the statues aren`t up to scratch.

    I`m thinking that some have been updated since those photos. The politicians and the Madonna one in particular look bad, and I don`t recall them looking so bad when I was there. There are also some that are missing from those photos (Michael Jackson, Darth Maul, Jack Nicholson`s Joker, The Simpsons, Bob the Builder, a 1916 mock-up where you can sit behind a machine gun for a picture) I thought the chamber of horrors was fairly creepy too, and the Jack and the Beanstalk one looked really good.

    Only real complaints were that even though it`s aimed at kids, there`s no baby changing facilities, and buggies aren`t allowed in, so you have to leave it with the rest of them by the front door.

    Like I said, it wasn`t so bad. If you have little kids, it can be quite a fun outing.

    It's crap, don't waste your money. Was there at the weekend with the gf, would not recommend it to anyone.

    If you're not going to go to enjoy it for it's kitsch value, then you're simply not going to enjoy it.

    It's immense fun for what it is. Can't wait to go back again.

    The girl I live with was there last week and someone had pulled down the Frankenstein monster's trousers.... it seems he's anatomically correct.

    I can provide pictures!
