I started to collect Iron Maiden in 2012 during a trip to Japan by finding an LP lot at a fair price. Then I discovered the extent of Iron Maiden's discography and decided to collect only Japanese pressings and the LP/12" format. My goal is to have all of them: first and second pressings, regular and
promo variations. Of course, there are some exceptions, like the
Fear of the Dark UK LP, because it wasn't released as an LP in Japan.
