This past Christmas, my best Metal buddy in the Metal Universe, aka Scott Coverdale, gifted me this IRON MAIDEN The Trooper Funko Pop! This is part of the Funko Pop! Albums series. Classic Eddie! I’m very delighted to own this beauty!

The Trooper has been released in the past as both a 12” and 7” vinyl, represented as the cover artwork you see here behind the Eddie Funko. I first owned The Trooper 12” vinyl many solar eclipses ago. Circa 1983 to be exact.

The captivating artwork for The Trooper, featuring Eddie, was created by the legendary Derek Riggs.

Thanks for taking a look and visiting Metal Odyssey! Enjoy your week and take care of each other out there. Metal be thy name. – Stone
