Some of my sweetest and loooong wants finally found it's new home. As always bargains, trades (Hi to Vampallens!) and usual purchases:

P.S: Nice surprise with Hanker debut, never heard this band before, was only interested when found a cd with good cover artwork, then downloaded it and was hugely impressed by high quality power metal in US style. Underrated gem

Thanks chatzial! Yes, these Ninja and Mordor LPs not so expensive, but getting harder and harder to find, especially in Near Mint condition. Now i am desperately looking fro Ninja second album, which is real rarity.
P.S:Your Jade and Black Fate LPs also rocks!

I agree, great album. I was surprised too (pity the following albums aren't in the same level). Which version did you get of the two ?

I bought first self-released press. Agree with you about the rest of discography. Nothing even close to debut. This is the band of one (first) album IMO. Highly recommend to everyone who still don't familiar with this album, especially for Jag Panzer fans.
P.S: On picture above one of CDs now is the oldest cd in my collection. Who knows which one?

Mad Max presumably. If I am right, does it mean that I'll win it?

Is that Fairchild something heavy? Seen it often and was tempted but the year kept me away. Is it Pomp/Hard Rock or already Metal?

First pressing of Helloween CD (1986)?

I am always very suspicious when someone claims that a particular heavy metal CD was made before 1986. Not sayng there aren't any, but I personally think that many CDs that are thought to be released before 1986 are indeed later pressings only with 1983, 1984 or 1985 (c) and (p) dates printed.
