PlayStation Croatia has revealed an initiative with the country's postal service where famous faces from PS5, PS4 titles will appear as postage stamps. It's the first issue in a Popular Culture series that's designed to mark "the importance of postage stamps which tell stories by travelling the globe, this time about discovering new worlds and experiences".
The set of four postage stamps include the key art from God of War Ragnarok, Horizon Forbidden West, Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart, and The Last of Us: Part I. As such, the likes of Kratos, Aloy, Ratchet, and Ellie will be travelling to wherever Croatian residents send their packages to. 50,000 copies of the collection have been issued, and they are available from tomorrow. Alenka Lalić, a designer from Zagreb, made the postage sheets.
Will you be looking to pick these postage stamps up as collectibles if you're from Croatia? Let us know in the comments below.

I want them! All of them!
Exceting news.
A lot of games being imported from Croatia in the near future.
Wow, they look god damn good.
I don't need them.
But I do want them.
Nothing quite says "I love you, I hate you" like a greeting card with a Joel & Ellie stamp.
This is amazingly random but actually cool. I'm not sure it's a meaningful marketing product, and is oddly localized, but I wouldn't say no if they brought such a thing here....
Is there a way to get hold of these in the West, or do you need to be in Croatia to buy them? Stamps are one of the few collectibles I have space for.
Why use key art? Why not use the opportunity for something new? I know it's cheap and all, but c'mon
@extragood in the West? Where do you think Croatia is, off the coast of Japan?
Imagine making PlayStation themed postage stamps only to exclude Tearaway.
I want these!! These look like a great set to add to my playstation collection!! Very cool idea!
Just a smoke screen to try and hide the fact they still haven't managed to get the PS store to accept credit cards almost 2 months after we adopted euro as our currency. -.-
Finally I can buy something gaming related that my friends from western countries can't
@riceNpea I agree, my wording was a bit weird. More specifically, then: how can I get the stamps if I'm in the UK?
Love these, will try to get ahold of them. From what I understand they'll be doing themed envelopes too (probably not a lot of collectable value in those).
Also, UK is like a single timezone and an hour and a half flight away. It's not a big deal, I used to order stuff from UK all the time and it gets delivered in under a week (although there is import/customs now, so it's just not worth the hustle for anything not unique/rare). Works both ways, and I'm sure there will be resellers for these on ebay(eu).
Hugely missed opportunity not having Sam from Death Stranding on your delivery surely…
@XanderTigerclaw although a great idea, that would probably require Kojima Production's involvement. Sony doesn't own the IP, or?
@TheDudeElDuderino heh I just meant in reference to his main role of Delivering Things, not so much the actual technicalities of making it happen 😹
Just bought myself a set. These are a must for my collection.
