Chaos Eye Patch Bolt Thrower 1990

Hello! I would like to know how rare this Games Workshop patch is.

https://tshirtslayer.com/patch/games-workshopbolt-thrower%C2%B4s-chaos-e...

It is NOT official Bolt Thrower Merch though the band used the very same Chaos Eye Artwork on T-Shirts and albums. The 40k-like logo patches from the Grindcrusher Tour (shield form and one round one, see links below) are easy to find and quite cheap.

So what would you say? How long would I have to search for that chaos eye patch and how crazy are people with prices?

Thanks in advance! :)

Ah, forgot to say. I would highly appreciate if somebody offered me that patch for sale. ;)

The symbol on the round patch is called Crux Terminatus, it is from Warhammer 40k. Nothing to do with music really.

If you scroll to the bottom of the page, you can see the exact variant used on the patch.

I am not 100% sure but I think the symbol used on Grindcrusher tour merch is also from warhammer 40k, but I cant confirm this as I dont know the name of the symbol. But Im guessing it is related to Space Marines.

About the chaos eye patch, it is definately the rarest out of these old Games Workshop / Warhammer related patches.
I have seen it go over 100€ in ebay.. So Id say if you want one, prepare to pay a ridiculous price. IMO def. not worth it unless you are a really dedicated fan of Games Workshop or Warhammer 40K.

Btw did you know that in the early 90s Games Workshop had a really short-lived record label called Warhammer Records? They only released a few albums.

Thanks for sharing this information with me! I didn't know about the record label, only about the cooperation of GW with BT. But there is nothing too strange not to be believed when it comes to GW under the ownership of Bryan Ansell. :)
