OK, so these have been released in the US this year (don't know if they have in years past). Walgreens is chock full of them.

The British equivalent of baseball cards, soccer sticker books were the way of my youth. Is anyone else collecting this spring? I'm ready to swap duplicates!

Not soccer, but I ordered a Topps Baseball sticker book for 2018 and a box of stickers for me and the little guy to do.
I loved the sticker books as a kid.

I didn't realize this went back years, but my now-wife spent more money than she cares to admit trying to get me a complete book from the 2014 WC. I guess they sell a stickerless book for $20, which I'm gonna buy for the nephews.

Some of the folks on my Spurs message board have completed books going back to the 70s.

I remember trying to complete Panini’s sticker book for baseball in 1988. Didn’t quite finish it. The book fell apart before I could.

My six-year old and I are currently working on one and I've finally convinced him to hang onto his duplicates. We opened four packs over the past two days and found only 7 new stickers which left us with 25 duplicates.

If you'd like to trade stickers, please let me know. We are one David Price away from completing the Red Sox.

Will do. We've stalled a bit lately with my work schedule and starting to get going with ball season, but I'm hoping we'll get through the stickers soon enough.
