This may be old news but for fans of Neon Genesis Evangelion, it’s probably good news ;)
The Japanese Post Office, better known as Japan Post, has announced that the 5th Edition of their popular “Heroes and Heroines of Anime” Stamp Series will feature Neon Genesis Evangelion.
This is a very smart way to rack some cold hard cash in. Each stamp is valued at 80 YEN, which will be sold in sheets of ten. Of course, the net worth of it would be valued at a much higher price for those in Otakudom. A pair of 2 of these stamps are going at USD 5 dollars and above over at ebay :/
I won’t bear to use any of these if I got my hands on them. It’ll be such a waste :)
These stamps are very well done and fitted in nicely in my opinion. There’s Asuka in it :)

Pretty cool…but now it’s the Japan Post flogging the dead horse. \o/
Are you gonna get them?
I’m still debating whether to get them or not. It’s 10 USD over at ebay, and I don’t think there are any other alternatives.
Probably laminate it and place it in a safe place :)
somehow i would only get them if they were liked stamped by the postage office … seems cooler that way
