The most distinguishing feature of this 2006 Mini Sheet format Special edition is the original miniature sheet issued for the 1982 Brisbane Commonwealth Games only included the three 27c stamps. Another distinction is the Perforation gauge is 14x 14 1/2 whereas the original stamps were 14 1/2, with the 27c stamps in the original-issue mini sheet being 13 1/2 x 13. Extracted from a 2006 limited edition booklet, there are neat staple indents at the left edge. Another note: because it was issued after the event, it features 'Matilda' the Kangaroo, the official Games Mascot, parading in the opening ceremony.
