The Dunlop IM95K Iron Maiden Killers Cry Baby is an exclusive collector’s edition wah-wah guitar pedal released by Jim Dunlop in early 2026 to celebrate the 50th anniversary of this heavy metal legend and to honour their landmark second album Killers (1981).
The Iron Maiden Cry Baby works both as a fully fledged stage tool and as a highly sought-after collector’s piece.
Key specifications and features:
- Iconic design: The entire chassis is decorated with visual motifs from the Killers album. The rubber treadle and the bottom metal plate both feature the legendary mascot Eddie. On the side of the pedal you’ll find the unmistakable red Iron Maiden logo.
- Traditional sound architecture: Sonically, this pedal doesn’t try to experiment. It is based on the proven circuitry of the standard Dunlop GCB95 Cry Baby. Expect a thick, aggressive and highly expressive wah sweep that helped define guitar lines in the early NWOBHM era.
- A nod to classic tracks: The effect directly recreates the frequency character that guitarists Dave Murray and Adrian Smith used to build tension in raw cuts such as “Wrathchild”, “Innocent Exile” and “Drifter”.
Who it’s for / best suited to: Ideal for Iron Maiden fans, collectors, and gigging guitarists who want a classic Cry Baby-style wah with a bold limited-edition look. A great match for heavy metal, classic metal, hard rock, and expressive lead playing where a pronounced wah sweep is part of the sound.
Technical specifications:
The pedal is housed in a rugged, all-metal enclosure. It does not feature True Bypass (it uses classic hardwire switching faithful to the original) and is powered either by a standard 9V battery or a 9V DC adaptor.
Collector buzz:
The launch was backed by a major campaign in which Dunlop sent “mystery boxes” to leading guitarists worldwide. Kirk Hammett of Metallica and John Petrucci of Dream Theater shared unboxing videos, openly praising the visual presentation of the packaging and the pedal itself.
