At that sort of price I would just buy a lot more figures.

Wait! Those are CNN tanks!

It's not a museum, it's tank paintball!

Though there IS a museum on the site/ £9.00 GBP a head for entry to the museum only. Doesn't look like they have a great deal of stuff. You'd be better off going to Duxford or Bovington

MajorB done Bovington spent best part of two days there, that is the best.

Duxford is mainly aircraft and I'm not really into them so not really on mu list. Other suggestions welcome.

Worst museum(s)so far; Imperial War museum (both London and North). poorly laid out, no information and poor choice of subjects and don't even get me started on being racist.

IWM London made no mention of the India and the like who's troops fought and died in the war on our side as part of the Empire ( the twits don't even understand their own name)!

Cobbaton tank museum lot smaller than Bovington but very good you can marvel at how they got tank transporter down the narrow Devon lanes :-)
Winchester bunch of small museums covering the Gurkhas,Rifles and others there is also the Great Hall if your into medieval all close together.
Numerous good forts along the south coast if that's your thing.
Note I visited these pre covid.

Duxford's land warfare hall is probably a lot bigger than the museum at Armourgeddon.

Muckleburgh in Norfolk have a pretty decent array of vehicles and loads of cases of miniature models, figures and dioramas. Well worth a trip.
