Aussie Big Things Turn Stamp-Sized

We can't get enough of ridiculous Australian big things. And soon, if you're holidaying in Oz and want to send a postcard home, you can help immortalize your favorite Big Thing by using a postage stamp.

National postal agency Australia Post has seen it fit to make the Big Things small. New designs painted by the ultra-cool Reg Mombassa feature the Big Banana, the Big Pineapple and the Big Golden Guitar, among others. But our personal fave, the Big Potato (the one that more closely resembles dinosaur poop), hasn't made it onto a stamp. We're not happy. Big Things postage stamps are due out June 5, so listen up, Australia Post: we want the Big Potato stamp. Please.
