Think Tank is what used to be the old Birmingham Science and Industry Museum. It relocated from the city centre to a more accessible new estate just outside. As a museum it is excellent but if you are visiting specifically for robotics, I must say there isnt much....

And by the way, Legoland is great fun, very expensive but very definitely for children...
