Who's ready? The U.S. Postal Service is launching a set of four limited-edition "SpongeBob SquarePants" this summer.
Available Aug. 1, the "SpongeBob SquarePants" stamps are a part of the USPS' specialty summer offerings. Two of the stamps feature SpongeBob's face, one features SpongeBob and his best friend Patrick Star, and the other features SpongeBob, Patrick, Squidward, Mr. Krabs, Sandy Cheeks, Plankton and Gary the Snail. The stamps are Forever Stamps, meaning they are not associated with a price and can be used forever.
"SpongeBob SquarePants," created by Stephen Hillenburg, debuted in 1999. The 16th season of the long-running series aired on June 27. The show is available to stream on Paramount+.
In recent years, several SpongeBob spinoffs have been released, including Paramount's "Kamp Koral" and "The Patrick Star Show" in 2021.
