IMHO it's more the core of the core collection: they only show the middle section of the Night Watch. The exhibition about Dick Bruna was only one small room with a couple of his posters and how he develops his covers and Miffy drawings. You can also listen to an interview but that was just the standard stuff most Dutch people already know about him. I'm glad I got a Museumcard and didn't have to pay €12,50 for it! The renovations are done in 2013 so I advice people to wait until the reopen fully before visiting.

Thanks for the advice, maybe I'll go visit in 2013
. I spent a week-end in Amsterdam ages ago and I liked the Rijksmuseum, though the real revelation was the Van Gogh museum. When we came back on the coach, my friend and I were probably the only ones who hadn't tried to buy weed while there. People came back with lots of things that were supposed to be weed but often turned out to be something else.
