There is an Iron Maiden Eddie action figure coming out in September to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the band's Powerslave record. The figure will be $30 and looks like it would be a pretty cool thing to own if you're a collector or just a huge fan of the band. I like that the chains are actually metal and the cloth is legit.
According to Action Figure Fury:
"The Mummy Eddy was created in celebration of the 30th anniversary of the classic metal masterpiece — Iron Maiden's Powerslave. This eight-inch tall Eddie features a real metal chain that can be connected to the mouth or unhooked for when he breaks free. Mummy Eddie is also going to be coming with an alternate, unwrapped head sculpt that really shows the true beast hiding underneath the bandages."
The action figure is expected to be released around Halloween.
Man, Iron Maiden are just doing whatever they want nowadays in the most interesting ways! Selling a ton of their beer, saving the world with a kick ass aircraft… all we need now is a new record.
