Maiden or Maiden-related physical media wish list

I have been thinking about this recently. Are there any Maiden or Maiden-related physical media products you would like to see released or re-released? Of course you can come up with your own desired product!

Here’s mine
  • Maiden England on black vinyl. The picture disc has too much noise! They should have released it on 2014 with the others from the 80’s
  • As Live As It Gets by Blaze on LP.
  • LAD boxset with recordings from all the nights that the recordings were sourced from (similar to the Strangers in the Night UFO boxset)
 
As much as they have live videos/pro-shot recordings from all tours. That's my wish.
 
Studio albums in their original mastering on CD. Or a new remaster with only the volume increased. No over compressed sound, no shitty EQ adjustments.
Except for Piece of Mind, we need a proper re-EQ of that album because so far no version is good enough. The original lacks in bass, the 98 has too much bass, and the 2015 has even more bass.

Live albums for which they choose the best performance for each song separately. I don't care that it's a real show, I only want the best performances.
 
Something like Eddie´s Archive would be nice.
Nice package, with Blaze era live stuff and reunion era stuff. And instead of a Parchment with ring some Eddie figurine or artbook.
 
An official reissue of the Soundhouse Tapes.

I don't have the means to afford a real copy or likely end up with a bootleg, and the reissue like 20 years ago came and went incredibly fast. I wish they would do a larger reissue of this and am actually surprised they haven't done so yet.

If it comes as digibook with a 24 pages booklet with loads of pics I´d like such thing too!
 
A pipe dream I know but I’d love every single studio album to be released as a boxset similar to the Metallica ones. Just put everything in it they have based around each album, demos, live recordings and stick a blu ray in with any and all video footage they have laying around.

I would love some nice, beautiful CD versions of the studio albums, digipacks with liner notes and with extra disc with b-sides.

And maybe also a new version of the First ten years box set with the original Listen with Nicko tracks + Blu-ray/DVD version

If we got some stuff like Dortmund 1983, Paris 1986, Donington 1988, Wembley 1990, Milano 1999 then hell yes of course.

As for related albums, maybe Silver and gold with b-sides?

Same, even Load gets the love and treatment. Would love the same for Maiden.

I'd genuinely love a bunch of that stuff lol
The Tony Newton-mixed live albums would hurt me on an emotional level though...
 
They don’t need to re re re re re-release the albums again. Especially with bonus tracks just to make the completionists pay for the same fucking albums they’ve already probably bought four or five times already in different formats. That’s Gene Simmons level hucksterism and I hope they have more class.

If they want to do a complete b side collection and a collection of demos, alternate takes etc (like Beatles Anthology) then great.
 
I'm dying to get my hands on both the A Real Live One and A Real Dead One vinyl picture discs edition.

And a Maiden Japan 2 LP picture disc edition with a complete show with the famous Paul Di'Anno artwork would make me go nuts.

Your comment reminded of this good interview with Janick from 1998, in which he said they have wrote a lot of material for the VXI album, but only chose 8 songs. We know the BNW songs, I'm curious to know or hear some of the others. Maybe someday.

Btw, his favorite songs from the album to play at the time were Clansman and Educated Fool, the latter wasn't a setlist regular.
