4 Star Rating: Recommended

This attraction is very cool. It's like your having a crazy dream because the figures are so life-like. I thought a staff member was wax! A little pricey but it's unique enough to check out and close to the Broadway shows.

Pros: Surreal, Discounts, Realistic Figures

Cons: Food Choices

1 Star Rating: Not Recommended

We went on a weekend and it was $29 a person. If you want walk in the lobby you can take your picture with Beyonce or Donald Trump and walk back out. The statues in the London version are much more interesting and varied. If you don't like current NY pop stars this version is pretty boring and overpriced. Even though Times Square was packed this museum was deserted.

Cons: Expensive, Not Enough Statues
