What's your favorite Fury animation

[Knut-3112]

I forgot about The Trooper Eddie - one of the best looking fury animations and the only one with a background music. Always reminds me of Bruce on the stage!

Final Frontier, but i also like visions Crusader VHE PoM

I think the winner should be the one who is winning for you at the moment really,

Thing is, this thread is about the favorite fury animation, not the best fury by itself. For example, Storm's fury is rather weak when compared to newer Eddies, but it's graphically great, better than many newer Eddies. Visions, on the other hand, has a very effective fury, in my opinion, but it's animation is nothing special really.

Good point! I didn't see Fear of the Dark Eddie mentioned either... he's an original and the fury animation is still pretty cool!

Fotd for me! Followed by SoL. Yes even better than pom etc. havent actually seen ffe’s yet though!

The way Run to the Hills Eddie's starts up without any delay and has him psycho charging with his axe and the high pitched scream always makes me laugh

To be honest I kind of like them all more or less - The original Eddie is not that great if I was to pick a weak one, same with Visions. My personal fave is DDE as I always loved the Single cover art and it is my fave Maiden tune. I like the new Killers Eddie one - pretty basic but the dripping blood is kind of cool! Crusader is not great but I like the skills it has! PoM is another cool one and always loved Cyborg - probably my favourite looking Eddie (I even have the 18" McFarlane figure and the smaller version in my office - come to think of it I have nearly all of the McFarlane stuff somewhere - not all of it though!).

Seventh son's fury along with the clairvoyant. Then again when benjamin breed revives and you see the massive health within the fury makes it look godly

Well let's see. Most of my favorite animations have already been mentioned, but I'll go ahead and throw my thoughts in here as well:

Final Frontier and Speed of Light Eddies' are brilliant for their references to the music videos
As several people have pointed out, Run to the Hills Eddie screaming and psycho-charging the target is funny as hell
Fear of the Dark Eddie morphing into the tree creature from the album cover was a great idea
Killers Eddie is simply scary to watch creeping toward the camera and proceeding to butcher his victim, although the devs should REALLY consider extending it so that he stands up and laughs afterward -- "He laughs as he's watching you bleed!"

But my real FAVORITE fury animation has to be Shaman Eddie! Cutting open his chest and pulling the heart out is a reference to both one of my favorite Maiden artworks (from the Book of Souls booklet) and to what is quite possibly the most interesting and creative form of human sacrifice any civilization has ever come up with. I just love it!

By the way, anyone who has never watched the Final Frontier music video should do so right now
