I just wish that they used the unused film from the same photo shoot~
I mean, it’s the exact same thing in small stamp form~
It’s great and is probably considered as an honor but I feel a wee bit cheated as a fan.
soshi fighting!
Someone is already selling these on ebay, though the price seems a bit excessive
