Massive lack of Iran and Belgium too. And the stadium stickers seem quite rare as well.250-odd stickers in and there's a distinct lack of USA and Japan
I've been wondering about those codes tooOh, and another episode in the shitness of the England stickers: not only do the FA not allow pics of players wearing England shirts (the players heads are photoshopped onto bodies wearing white t-shirts), but they won't let Panini use the FA logo on the shiny sticker either. So whilst all the countries in the World Cup have their football association's logo on the shiny sticker, England have a shit-looking St George's Cross.
By the way, what's with the code on the back of the shiny stickers?
I went to the website to find out, but it wanted me to register, and I couldn't be arsed...
That's normal though.We clearly haven#t bought enough becuase we still have no swaps. We are also missing entire teams but have nearly filled others
I don't want the virtual stickers, cos that will fuck up my carefully crafted memory of the players' faces, which enables me to flick through a pile of stickers and go "got, got, need…"The codes get you 5 'virtual' stickers on the online version of the album. Kinda pointless really, given anyone with a code is collecting the actual stickers!
I swapped a load the other day with someone from work, so my pile is depleted slightly, but here's what I have:I only need about 40 more to complete the album, may be calling on some of you for swap lists at some point soon...
Everyone's got Samaras.My swaps were raided yesterday by some keen collectors so I've only got bloody Samaras
