Panini Bundesliga 2025/2026 (Austria)

Panini Bundesliga 2025/26 is the official sticker collection dedicated to Austrian football for the season, covering both the Austrian Bundesliga and the Austrian 2. Liga. With a total of 399 stickers, the album follows the now established structure of recent Austrian releases, while also including a small parallel collectible element through a dedicated card set.

In addition to the stickers, the collection is accompanied by 24 special cards, with two players per Bundesliga club, available exclusively in the pocket tin, which contains six sticker packets and one card. Each of these cards also exists in an autographed version, adding an extra chase element for collectors. However, these bonus cards remain separate from the album itself and do not interfere with the main sticker checklist.

The album opens with an introductory page featuring three stickers: the official match ball and a large map of Austria displaying the logos of the competing clubs, composed of two stickers. A notable addition at the beginning of the album is the four-page section “Last Season in Numbers”, which includes 20 stickers celebrating some of the main highlights and key statistics of the previous campaign.

The Bundesliga clubs are then presented following the final classification order of the previous season. Each club is allocated 26 stickers across four pages. The first two pages contain the core visual and identity elements of the team: the metallic club badge, the coach, the stadium, the team photo composed of two stickers, the top player in action shown as a metallic sticker, the rookie, and the captain. The following two pages are dedicated to the squad itself and include 18 player portrait stickers.

After the Bundesliga section, the album moves directly to the Austrian 2. Liga. Here, the structure is much more compact: each club is represented by only four stickers, consisting of the metallic club badge and three selected player portrait stickers. While clearly more concise than the Bundesliga section, this still ensures that the second tier is fully included in the collection.

The album ends after the 2. Liga presentation, with no further thematic or celebratory sections. In contrast to the previous edition, there is no update set this time.

Panini World Darts Championship 2025/26

2025/26 World Darts Championship is the first-ever sticker album dedicated to the sport’s biggest event, produced by Panini in collaboration with the Professional Darts Corporation. As a debut release, it is an outstanding and ambitious collection, combining high-quality materials, a large number of special stickers, and a comprehensive overview of the tournament and its protagonists. The availability of a hardcover album edition further elevates the product, giving it a premium feel rarely seen in first editions.

The album opens with an introductory page featuring three stickers: a shiny PDC logo, the World Championship trophy, and Alexandra Palace, the iconic venue of the tournament.

The first thematic section, “Game On!”, spans two pages and captures the full spectacle of darts beyond the oche. It includes six stickers of presenters, six dedicated to the “voices of darts,” two featuring the dancers, and two highlighting the crowd.

The following two pages celebrate the history of the tournament, with 13 stickers depicting previous world champions lifting the trophy. This section creates a strong link between past and present before introducing the current stars.

The core of the album is dedicated to the 80 competing players, presented with a tiered structure based on their ranking. The top four—Luke Littler, Luke Humphries, Michael van Gerwen, and Stephen Bunting—are given a full-page treatment with six stickers each. These include a striking black-and-white “world class” sticker, a career highlight, a debut moment, an action sticker with nickname, a distinctive hexagonal face sticker, and a premium shiny portrait printed on thicker material. This last sticker stands out for its exceptional quality and is one of the highlights of the entire collection.

Players ranked from 5 to 32 are represented with three stickers each: a shiny portrait, an action nickname sticker, and a hexagonal face sticker. The remaining 48 players are featured with two stickers: a shiny portrait and an action nickname.

At the center of the album, three special sections enrich the collecting experience. “Ally Pally Classics” includes 14 stickers celebrating some of the most memorable matches played at Alexandra Palace. “Ones to Watch” features 24 stickers dedicated to additional players competing in the tournament, expanding the roster beyond the main 80. The “9-Dart Heroes” section highlights 15 players who achieved the perfect leg in World Championship history, a fitting tribute to one of darts’ most iconic feats.

The final part of the album includes two more sections. “Legends” presents 10 shiny stickers honoring some of the greatest players in darts history, while “Know Your Darts?” offers a lighter, educational touch with 13 stickers linked to fun facts and trivia about the sport.

Beyond the main album, collectors can also enjoy a dedicated Tournament Tracker poster, designed to be completed with a 56-sticker update set released in February 2026. This update captures the key moments of the tournament, which was once again dominated by Luke Littler, who defeated Gian van Veen 7–1 in the final to secure his second consecutive World title.

Overall, the 2025/26 World Darts Championship sticker album is an exceptional debut. With its rich structure, extensive use of shiny and premium materials, and a thoughtful balance between players, history, and entertainment, it sets a very high standard for future darts collections and stands out as one of Panini’s most impressive recent releases.
