‘Star Wars’ collectible stamps coming to UK from Royal Mail

Sometimes important letters need an extra boost of midi-chlorians to help them reach their destination in a galaxy not so far, far away.

This new set of first class “Star Wars” stamps from Royal Mail features both the classic and brand new characters from the light side and the dark side of the Force.

The “Star Wars” stamp series includes portraits by British artist Malcolm Tween of nine well-known characters: Darth Vader, Yoda, Obi-Wan Kenobi, a Stormtrooper, Han Solo, Princess Leia, Emperor Palpatine, Luke Skywalker and Boba Fett.

New characters Kylo Ren, Rey and Finn from the upcoming movie “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” are also featured in the stamp set.

Fans can purchase the stamps in a variety of formats including the Character Stamp Set for £7.76 and the Stamp Souvenir for £9.55.
