Have no regrets for that... I went there and I was quite desappointed...
The friend I went with to that park had a friend who spent time in Budapest years before us (I was there in 97 I think). That friend went to that place when it was still not really known apparently, and he went during the winter, there was snow everywhere and the park was just a basic field with the statues randomly installed... it was described a quite a dramatical experience... especially for west europeans like us... a desert field covered in snow, imposing communist statues in the middle of nowhere...
But when I was there thing had changed, as it was very well organised, with gates, nice little alleys, trees, etc... a bit like a communist disney world... all that attention of making the place an attraction distract your attention from the statues which are not anymore the feature, but just like decorations...
So because it take so long to go there, I feel that it does not worth to go really, but that's only my opinion...
