Upin and Ipin stamps from Malaysia

Pos Malaysia has issued a stamp collection featuring the Upin and Ipin cartoon series using the glitter sticker technique, the first in Asia with perforations.

The producer of the animation series, Les Copaque Production, has designed the main characters playing traditional games such as wau (kite) using a special printing technique.

The series, released in conjunction with the 2010 Stamp Week, is the last Malaysia stamp issue of the year.

Upin and Ipin is a Malaysian television series of animated shorts which features the life and adventures of the eponymous twin brothers in a fictional Malaysian kampong.
