Australia Post's Lunar New Year: Year of The Pig stamp issues

My birthday fell on the same day as the LNY this year, so one of the presents I got was a big packet of postage stamps...

including this booklet of the Chinese zodiac animals ranged around a central circular lotus stamp...

and a sheetlet of all the Chinese zodiac animals and their Australian counterparts. I LOVE this idea...and I think the pairing off was done very well. There really is something very pig-like about a koala...
