Eddie is perhaps the most recognizable mascot in heavy metal music, a strange figure who has crossed over into countless genres on the covers of various Iron Maiden album covers. Eddie has also been incorporated into the stage dressing for Iron Maiden’s tour, often spurting blood or fireworks from its orifices. Eddie has also appeared in multiple video games, including Tony Hawk 4, where he appeared as an unlockable character.ย 

The Iron Maiden crossover continues a string of crossover miniature packs with different franchises. In recent months, CMON has announced miniatures packs featuring characters from Supernatural, The Boys, Thundercats, Ghostbusters, and various Batman from the Dark Nights Metal event series. All of these miniatures were produced for Zombicide, which is arguably CMON’s biggest and most popular game title.ย 

Pre-orders for the Iron Maiden miniatures bundle is available now. No release date has been announced yet.
