Ten forever stamps from the United States Postal Service celebrate 10 popular mechanical androids from the Star Wars film franchise and media empire. Lucasfilm, the studio that created the Star Wars franchise, is celebrating its 50th anniversary in 2021.
Each stamp in the set shows a single droid that has appeared in one or more feature films in the fictional Star Wars media franchise, or in an offshoot television or streaming series. The droids are each depicted against an indistinct background representing “settings of memorable adventures,” according to the Postal Service.
