Royal Mail did - may still have? - a special on taking the full set. How sad am I to know that?!

Do you buy them as a set or individually?

The Olympic Gold Medal winners were initially available only as miniature sheets with six identical stamps on each sheet (6 x 60p = £3.60 per sheet)....

...The Paralympic Gold Medal winners are being issued in miniature sheets with two identical stamps on each sheet (2 x 60p = £1.20 per sheet)...

...however, it might be possible that the Royal Mail might issue a composite set featuring all the Gold Medal Winners in the future.

Another option is to purchase all the individual single stamps from a stamp dealer at slightly more than their face value.

This is getting expensive!
 
Here's the entire collection of 63 stamps - 29 Team GB Olympic Gold Medalists and 34 Team GB Paralympic Gold Medalists...

I've got a rather large music collection (3,000 LPs & 2,000 CDs) and my DVD collection is coming along fine (over 3,000 films).

Then there's my model car collection and model railway collection.

And I'm someone who can never throw out a book.
 
Royal Mail will be releasing a miniature sheet The Memories of London 2012 Miniature Sheet that will contain four stamps, and be issued on the 27th of September.
