RE/Biohazard Commemorative Stamps

From Joystiq:
In honor of Biohazard's tenth anniversary (though that was technically March 22), Capcom's beloved horror franchise has been honored with commemorative stamps in Japan. The stamps feature Rebecca Chambers, Jill Valentine, Chris Redfield, Ada Wong, Leon Kennedy. Also shown are stamps featuring the Biohazard logo and the S.T.A.R.S. insignia.

We know Biohazard (which goes by the name Resident Evil in the US, maybe you've heard of it) is a hugely successful franchise, but is it worthy of stampage? We know Mario has been immortalized by Japan in stamp form, but what about Sonic the Hedgehog, who celebrated his 15th anniversary this year? Maybe his relevance has whithered as the years go by ...

Congratulations to Capcom for receiving such a flattering, albeit peculiar, honor.
