Great BP! It’s weird how they haven’t made a reissue of this BP but made a small patch reissue again. This one and the official Powerslave BP seem pretty hard to come across for more modern Maiden BP’s

It's indeed a great back patch. There is also a 2011 version of it, so I guess that was the reissue.
It seems that besides this one and the Powerslave, also a few others are not so easy to find. Seems like razamataz produced different amounts...? 🤷‍♂️

Oh wow I didn’t even notice the 2006/2011 difference, both seem hard to find I guess. Yeah they must have strangely, it’s nice they’re doing some new official patches but wish they’d print some new BP’s as well, would be nice to have some new Powerslave Eddie, amolad, X factor, virtual xi, stranger in a strange land, 2 minutes to midnight bp’s

I don't know which one is harder to find, but both are not the most common.
I actually hope for some designs that have never been used for back patches. Like Run to the Hills, Purgatory, Running Free, Rime of the Ancient Mariner, Flight of Icarus, Phantom of the Opera. There is so much potential if done right. Personally I hope the make them 80's style. Nothing beats a vintage back patch in terms of looks and quality.
