Summary: This is unbeleiveable
Review: Thats the only way I can say it. This is the most magnificent release I ever seen. Their videos are awsome. Very graphic, some gory and can turn your stomache but that is Maiden. Their live videos are crazy with their special affects, headbanging live stage work with live beasts and fans that will do anything. This is true heavy metal, not nu-metal. Its something any Maiden fan should have.
To comment on what these mother fu*king d*ckheads are saying about Blaze, I like him. Yes Bruce is better but I think Blaze held a flame to the old Maiden metal.
The animated videos are pretty cool too. I recommend this to any Maiden fan or anyone who loves really heavy sh*t. These videos have got it all, just like this band does. IF YOU DONT LIKE THEM, F*CK OFF AND GO LISTEN TO YOUR BACKSTREET BOYS. I would recommend you put the money into this metal work of art collection. And also check out Maiden on the Headbangers Ball which seems to be coming back. UP THE IRONS MOTHER F*CKERS!

Summary: No 5.1 Dolby Digital !
Review: The content of the DVD is pretty good, but you have to wonder why it is recorded in only digital stereo which means no sound going to the subwoofer.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Awesome collection
Review: The intro to the menus drags out a little, but it is quite cool. The navigation system is a little slow however, there's a noticable break in the action whenever you move around to check out the options. Seems like kind of antiquated technology, but that's quibbling. The real star here is the videos, and this is as comprehensive a collection as you can find. I'm surprised it doesn't include "Running Free" from the "Live After Death" video, since this was included on the previous VHS compilation "From There To Eternity". But since "Live After Death" is slated to be released on DVD some time in the future, it's hardly a big deal.

I will say that despite being pioneers in video making, Maiden is fairly notorious for beating a dead horse. No less than five clips ("Run To The Hills", "Number Of The Beast", "The Trooper", "Aces High", "Bring Your Daughter...To The Slaughter") depend on old b&w movie or newsreel footage, and they all start to look the same after awhile. Also, the video budget must've been pretty low during the "No Prayer For The Dying" era, because the trio of clips from that album all look like they were shot for broadcast on Public Access Cable TV. Conversely, the low-profile Blayze Bailey era is treated to some pretty high-tech stuff like the CGI-heavy "The Angel & the Gambler".

Overall though, a fittingly elaborate and comprehensive package of all of Maiden's videos, on 2-DVD's at a bargain price. Pick it up!

Summary: Complete history in one DVD box: Nice!
Review: This double DVD is describing the life story of Maiden in the form of video clips of their hits. I think it is a must for all true fans. Please note that the lyrics of many of the band's songs (some of these songs being included in this DVD) are very meaningful so if you are a real fan, you should understand their message and appreciate it. What I can tell you definetly is that they DO NOT encourage wars as one of the previous commentators who was full of national pride understood(Check Afraid to shoot strangers and lord of the flies). So listen carefully to them! Long Live Iron Maiden!

Summary: An awesome DVD that represents Iron Maiden's entire career
Review: This is a must have for any Iron Maiden fan. This DVD is a comprehensive collection of Iron Maiden music videos. It spans the entire 20 year+ career of Iron Maiden. It also has never before released animated music video versions of classics like The Trooper and Flight of Icarus and also newer songs like The Wicker Man. Any Maiden fan, new or old, should pick this up. And for less then $20 two DVDs, its a steal.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A Very Nice Dvd Package
Review: This is a pretty fun dvd and a bargain. Naturally, this is for Iron Maiden fans, anyone else will get bored. They did a good job putting this dvd together. While there's no interviews or backstage footage, you get to see all the videos that Maiden made throughout their career. If you own the enhanced cds that came out a few years ago, you're probably pretty familiar with quite a few of the videos, but it's nice to see them on the tv screen in the best shape they can be. But there are also videos from the Blaze era and some live performances that'll keep ya busy. Even if you weren't a fan of the Blaze era, you'll probably still enjoy the videos-The Angel and The Gambler is one of the worst songs from the worst Maiden album, but one of the coolest videos they ever did! There's a few videos redone with some new animation-these are pretty cool and all, but I'm a purist I guess and prefer the originals. So, if you're a Maiden fan(I'm assuming you have to be if you're reading this), this is well worth the time and the price.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Kickin' Maiden!
Review: This is a really fun DVD. I wouldn't say Maiden has the best videos. The ones from the 80's are typical of music videos of that time - a little corny. However, this is the definitive video collection. I haven't watched the entire thing - about ¾ the way through. It is great! Not sure about the special features, etc. Get this if you are even a moderate Maiden fan. It's a lot of fun!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: What a GREAT collection! AWESOME!
Review: This is IT! Complete IRON MAIDEN! Videos and much , Much more! If you are a MAIDEN fan ... YOU GOTTA GET THIS! Soooooo WORTH IT!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent!
Review: This set is pretty amazing! You have ALL of the videos from 1980 up to Rock in Rio. It is missing the new one from the new album. Most of the early videos are just live videos which is pretty cool actually! You get to see the band evolve with these videos and get a glimpse into the past when concerts were TRULY fun with bands like this that really gave you a bang for your buck(not as big as KISS but different). You also get the treat of seeing the original singer, Then how much Bruce changed Maiden, when he left you get stuck with Blaze then Bruce is back.(Lets hope he NEVER leaves!) The only small disappointment is with the camp chaos videos. They only give you clips of animation then its the same old video footage. They could have fully animated them but thats the way it goes. For Maiden enthusiasts like myself this is a MUST own!

for the easter eggs, here are two I know of.
goto the select a scene index on disc one and highlight/click video 6(the trooper) three times, click it then skip it and repeat three times, you will be treated to eddie punching in 666 into a pad on a door. THen you will unlock the hidden video.
ON disc two do the same thing only highlight video 6 twice and video 4 once to unlock the other hidden video. Youll see eddie punch in 664 and then be able to see the other video.
