I didn't really like that sleeve print... Derek is still king!

Derek is the only one good at cover art. The Eddie face us identical to the Rock In Rio Eddie. Just recoloured and flipped. It's about 15 times brighter than the rest of the image!

Derek is the only really good artist. Melvyn is good. The rest of them are quite useless.

The Eddie's face is just like the Wickerman video.

I was half expecting Eddie to done up like Alexander the great, not this. Although at least it is a whole lot better than the covers in the box set.

Bring back Riggs!!!!!

The cover is really strange. Its not like classical Maiden cover, Derek is simply the best, but it looks like SAME, but Iam definitely same eddie head like on the RTTH single, simply it looks like they use the same picture!!!!

Well, just wait how it will look on the LP or CD cover.

Also Iam fuckin angry about the Maiden covers in the new box set, theyre simply very easy. I will do better on my own computer... (( I definitely think that the idea of this box set didnt came from the Sanctuary management, but from someone other....

Look at the size of his head! It's just over half the size of his foot...

We want Derek back!

Weren't two of the box set cover pictures done by Derek anyway? Only the inferior b-sides one was by someone else.

Yeah Hammersmith and BBC Sessions look like Derek covers.

Anyway, the head on the ETG cover is definately pasted on it.

"best of the b-sides" is the crap one, too, if you've noticed

i think his head is small compared to his foot cos he is sitting back. that said-its still a crappy cover.

it stinks. Maybe they're just giving Maiden fans a legitimate reason NOT to but it at all!
