I went there for the first time in a year last night. There was nuffin
special! A Red Beard Runner (6289) for 50 quid, which considering it
sells for the same amount in dollars isn't very appealing!

They did have Mindstorms, Cybermasters and ZNAP, which all had their own
displays unrelated to the main Lego bit.

The ZNAP display was rather shoddy - there was a cool button to press
which activated a motor.. the shoddy bit was because the motor had
fallen onto the base, still powered but not really showing off the
contruction at all! Even more bizzarely there was a little pouch which
contained leaflets, but the sealing selotape was still in place.. and
the leaflets still had an elastic band around them. Not terribly
inviting! But I took one anyway :)

Hmm.. there did appear to be straight railway track, but as I'm not into
trains I can't remember if that's valuable at all.
