Genius is my favourite site for lyrics, I like reading along while listening and seeing what the songs mean to others.
As for my favourite, Hallowed Be Thy Name of course, but as has already been said: the whole of AMoLaD is full of awesome lyrics. Lyrically it's my favourite album.
Thanks! I built the body out of PVC pipe and papier-mâché. I originally planned to make the head myself, but in the interest of my time and sanity, I cheated and ordered the Piece Of Mind Mask from Amazon.
I wanted to get a hoodie, but it's hot where I live 11 months out the year and I wanted to wear it more than that. I got it from Amazon. Here's a link for you: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08TPTM28F/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&customId=B07537PKB3&psc=1

I haven't read it yet, but the same guy runs a pretty active Facebook group for Skunkworks fans, and he seems like a great guy. I will definitely pick it up at some point!
​
i ordered this as soon as i saw the post. got the Trooper tankard also. and check out nemesis now - they have other great stuff.
​
Up the Irons!
They're not in stock and it's very unlikely they will get them at this point. They are available on Discogs though https://www.discogs.com/sell/list?sort=price%2Casc&limit=25&master_id=987819&ev=mb
If you like to go for “one shot covering all” thing, this 5cd box set is quite nice to search for. This includes albums such as Survivors including Bruce re-recorded ones as bonus, Head On, Shock Tactics with two deferent mixes, plus famous Reading festival live ‘81 which Steve Harris did check Bruce before recruiting him. box set in Amazon
I agree with you all, but I think this was the company's way of showing it's the lower cost version of the game. Like this CD cover:
They also have The Trooper for $51.82:
Nemesis Now Iron Maiden Eddie The Trooper Head Trinket Box, Polyresin, Beige, One Size
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B083ZRMRG3/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_MMYBNP0V1J8R07TD9ZH2
And Killers, the priciest at $129.99:
Nemesis Now Officially Licensed Iron Maiden The Killers Eddie Album Bust Box, 30cm, Yellow
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08WJFP9W4/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_HE7AC60AAYJ63CVX2CWJ
It's like CoD in the old days. People get it because of having people work at gamestores or in this case record shops. Paying around 20$USD more to get there hands on early. I hope that he wont leak it. And if you want to listen it around 2:00PM BST (15:00 GMT) legaly you can download PROTONVPN for free and set yourself to Japan and make an Japanese Spotify account. So when it realeses there at 0:00AM you can listen it on the 2nd of September
Might be based on the 2005 novel by Gerald T. McLaughlin. https://www.amazon.com/Parchment-Novel-Gerald-T-McLaughlin/dp/1584200308
u/think-helicopter-493 thinks it's “about Mithridates VI Eupator, a Hellenistic king and one of Rome’s greatest enemies and king of Pontus near the Black Sea ‘sea of blood?’ After the assassination of his father, his mother and brother took the throne and he went into hiding. It is said that he experimented with poisons in the wilderness in exile and after five years, finally returned to his kingdom with ‘sweet revenge’, ruling as a ‘tyrant’, killing his mother and brother ‘shedding parents blood’ and marrying his sister. ‘Fierce as a wolf with leopard skin’ common depiction of Mithridates. Rome took him to war, during which he conducted a genocide. He lost in the end.”
It's not 'wrong' is just annoying because they're pulling the remastered version.
Which leads to the question, why did they ever bother to remaster this one? It should have just been buried.
I'm jealous. Any idea how this compares to the plastic Daron one? It is the same scale, but the price is less than half of what the diecast one is on eBay... https://www.amazon.com/SkyMarks-Iron-Maiden-747-400-SKR899/dp/B01IO3L0BW/
The price is especially high considering these are basically rebranded Onkyo ES-CTI300 which you can get for about $90. They are really good $90 headphones though.

Empire of the Clouds is also the name of a book on how in 1945 Britain was the world's leading aircraft builder and designer, and how it declined since. Not much to do with the song but it seems likely that Bruce would be aware of that book. http://www.amazon.com/Empire-Clouds-Britains-Aircraft-Ruled/dp/0571247954

There's nothing that indicates it's not in full release on that page, though interestingly Support mentioned it when I asked a question. Also I saw ads for it while playing Angry Birds 2...
