Panini Brasileirao 2018 (Hardcover album)

Panini Brasileirao 2018 is another excellent sticker collection of the Brazilian championship. There are however a couple of major flaws, like the two club badges per sticker and the disappearance of the mascot stickers, a classic of this collection. This year the album is again released with an hardcover version and the name changed from Campeonato Brasileiro to Brasileirao. A new feature of this collection is the presence of big size stickers (one per packet) and regular stickers (four per packet).

The collection opens with a foreword and two (half big size) metallic stickers: the album cover and the Brazilian Federation logo. Then the Serie A is introduced with a double page and the metallic stickers of the logo and trophy (half stickers of a big size sticker). In these pages there are details about the champions 2017 and the best scorers of the previous editions. 

Badge stickers of Serie A clubs are collected in two pages before the club pages. Each badge sticker is a half big size metallic sticker. Therefore, there are 10 metallic stickers covering the 20 badges of this section.

Serie A clubs are displaced over two pages with a total of 16 stickers: two big size stickers with the team photo and a celebration, and 14 regular stickers of players. Mascots and home/away kits are only printed on the album.

The Serie A section is closed by the Destaques (highlights) stickers. Here we find 10 metallic big size stickers including 20 star players of Serie A (one per club). Each player is half of a big size sticker. 

The Serie B is introduced by two pages with the half size stickers of the trophy and cup of the championship. Here there are as well details about the champions 2017 and best scorers of the previous seasons. 

Like for Serie A, also for Serie B there is a section with 20 half size metallic stickers of all club badges. Then the clubs are shown in alphabetical order, two per page with 6 stickers each (12 players). 

The section Destaques Serie B is the last of the album: 20 half size metallic stickers of Serie B star players.
