    Does Eddie have an official height?

    Ah! Thanks! TBH I would have thought his "full scale" size would have been closer to the walk-on Eddies -10 feet or more. Silly I know , but fun!

    Does Eddie have an official height?

    "As a bonus for collectors, one CD from each batch of releases will also be optionally available in a specially artworked box featuring a 1:24 scale figurine and exclusive patch." Would someone please do the math and calculate how tall that would make a "full scale" Eddie?

    What are your favourite nineties albums and why?

    TXF came out when I had just split with my wife so the gloomy tone and introspective lyrics fit right with what was going in my life. Especially the song " 2 A.M." Later I read that Steve had gone through a divorce himself and that it may have influenced TXF . That album was the soundtrack to...
