Most storage solutions are boring. A wicker basket. A ceramic bowl. A drawer that you shove things into and try not to think about. None of them have Eddie the Trooper staring out at anyone who dares approach your belongings, which is a significant design flaw.
This officially licensed Iron Maiden Trooper Box from Nemesis Now corrects that flaw comprehensively. Standing at 18cm, the piece features Eddie’s head as a functional trinket box — the zombie-like mascot fixing whoever approaches with the same fierce, unflinching stare he’s been directing at enemies since 1983. The detail across the sculpt is exceptional: every crease in his face, every element of his Trooper uniform, rendered in high-quality resin and carefully hand-painted by Nemesis Now’s artisans.
The lid — Eddie’s head — lifts cleanly away to reveal a storage compartment sized for jewellery, dice, small collectibles, or whatever treasured items you’d prefer Eddie to guard. He takes this responsibility seriously. Nothing gets past that stare.
The Trooper Box sits beautifully as part of a wider Nemesis Now Iron Maiden Trooper collection — alongside the tankard, goblet, shot glass, and bust boxes — but works equally well as a standalone statement piece. On a shelf, a desk, a fireplace mantle, or a bedside table, it draws the eye and holds it.
As a piece of Iron Maiden memorabilia it occupies a satisfying middle ground: detailed and impressive enough to please serious collectors, practical enough to use every day, and distinctive enough that anyone who enters the room will ask about it. What more do you want from a trinket box.
Cast in high-quality resin, hand-painted, officially licensed. The ideal iron maiden gift for a Trooper devotee or a very reasonable treat for yourself.
