A standard stamp game set includes 81 unit stamps, 81 ten stamps, 81 hundred stamps, 18 thousand stamps, 9 unit skittles, 9 ten skittles, 9 hundred skittles, 1 thousand skittle, 9 green circles, 9 blue circles, and 9 red circles.

(Note: The Stamp Game set used in the Static Addition pictures above was an enormous pain to work with due to the weird box. I would not recommend it.)
