Star Wars: Royal Mail unveil commemorative stamps to mark the release of Rise of Skywalker

The Royal Mail has unveiled the new commemorative Star Wars stamps ahead of the release of The Rise of Skywalker next month.

The 16-strong collection includes designs featuring heroes and villains from all nine instalments of the franchise.

The series also features three new characters from The Rise of Skywalker, with Jannah, Zorii Bliss and Sith Trooper all getting their own designs.

They feature alongside classic characters Lando Calrissian, Grand Moff Tarkin, Count Dooku, Darth Maul, Wicket the Ewok and Queen Amidala, as well as an X-wing, Stormtrooper Speeder bikes and Jedi starfighters.

The stamps will go on general sale in Post Offices on November 26. They can also be pre-ordered here.

It’s the third set of collectable Star Wars stamps released by the Royal Mail, following tie-ins for The Force Awakens in 2015 and The Last Jedi 2017.

Star Wars: Rise of Skywalker arrives in cinemas on December 19.
