Haikyu!!: School Crest Stamps for 20 Teams Now Available
The 25-millimeter wooden stamps can also be used on fabric and plastic with the right ink.
A stamp collection featuring the crests of 20 schools has been released in Japan for Haikyu!!. The manufacturer FUNCO is currently selling the designs through its official online shop; each stamp costs 1,800 yen and is expected to ship about two to three weeks after ordering.
As Anime!Anime! reports, the "Haikyu!! School Icon Stamp Collection" came about because buyers wanted stamps showing the series' school emblems rather than individual characters. The selection includes Karasuno, Aoba Johsai, Nekoma, Date Tech, Shiratorizawa Academy, Fukurodani Academy and Inarizaki, among others. The line comprises 20 different designs in total.
Stamps for Paper, Fabric and Plastic
The square stamps each measure 25 millimeters. The handle is made of MDF wood, while the stamping surface is made of natural rubber. According to the product description, besides paper, the designs can be applied to fabric or plastic using multipurpose ink sold separately. The collection is therefore aimed not only at collectors but also at fans who want to decorate their own bags, cards or other items with the school crests.
Sales currently take place through the Japanese FUNCO shop. The source does not mention distribution in Germany or international shipping, so it remains unclear whether the stamps will be regularly available outside Japan.
The new line complements other recently announced collectible products from well-known anime franchises, including the PalVerse figures for Jujutsu Kaisen and the Tomie x Hello Kitty figure.
