.... 😱😱😱 ..... πŸ€˜πŸ‘ΉπŸ€˜ It finally happened! After searching for many years, bothering so many people to trade with me, giving them big trading offers (they refused πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚), I managed to get my hands on the last back patch to complete my licensed vintage Maiden Back Patch collection 🀘🀯🀘 (at least to the best of my knowledge πŸ˜…) The Eddie Ripped face is an absolute killer back patch but I finally have it 🀘😍🀘

Not for sale or trade

Thanks buddy πŸ€˜πŸ˜„πŸ€˜ .... Retiring? I'm in my mid-30's mate...Still have some time to go πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

As you know, like many of you here on TSS, am a patch maniac, and when you are obsessed with something you will always find an excuse to keep on going πŸ˜‚ So this will continue his hunt for some other special pieces. It's just so much fun hunting, meeting and speaking to metal maniacs πŸ€˜πŸ˜‰πŸ€˜

Thanks mate! It is definitely a patch that is really hard to get. I've seen quite a few pop up in the past years but every time I seemed to miss out. Luckily I got my lucky break about a week back πŸ€˜πŸ˜„πŸ€˜

Thank you mate πŸ€˜πŸ˜„πŸ€˜ It wasn't easy, that's for sure πŸ˜… I was fortunate that there are a lot of awesome metal maniacs in the community who were willing to help me out by trading and guiding me on the way to some of the rarities. Couldn't have done it without all of this help 🀘

Ed-Banger Face Rip... what a find! This one absolutely never shows up so congrats on hunting it down. Now the circle is complete.... hahahah

Thanks buddy! πŸ˜„

It's funny you say this, because when I joined TSS and started collecting, there were like 8 people who had it. Not that I thought it was going to be a walk in the park getting this one, but I didn't expect this one to be last one I needed to complete my 'licensed vintage Maiden BP' collection. My bet was on Sands of Time....which was the second to last I got πŸ˜‚
