Is the checklist tracker free, and do I need an account?

It is completely free with no signup. Your ticks are saved privately in your own browser (local storage) — nothing is uploaded and we store nothing on our servers. The trade-off is that your progress lives on this device and browser, so clearing site data clears it.

Is this every Vinícius Júnior card ever printed?

No, and deliberately so. It tracks his most-collected cards indexed by set and card number — the ones collectors actually chase — not every parallel and print run, which run into the hundreds per release and change with every new product. It is built so you can see at a glance what you own, what is missing, and go find the gap.

Why do some rows say "varies by year" instead of a card number?

Because they genuinely do. Panini Select renumbers its checklist every season, so the same player moves between tiers and numbers year to year. Where we have a verified number from a published checklist we publish it; where we do not, we leave the field honest rather than invent one. Note there is no Panini Prizm La Liga set, and he is not in Prizm Premier League — his Prizm cards are the FIFA / World Cup releases.

What is the difference between the card number and the serial number?

The card number (like #177 or #70) is the checklist slot printed with the set name — every copy of that card shares it. The serial number (like 15/99) is stamped separately and tells you how many exist. #177 is which card; /99 is how rare. Pair the card number with the set AND year and your eBay search becomes exact.

Where do the "find on eBay" links go?

Each row opens a live eBay search pre-filled with that exact set, year and card number, so you land on real current listings rather than a guess at a price. Filter to Sold items to see what copies actually sell for. These are affiliate links — they cost you nothing and help keep this reference free.

Vinícius Júnior Card Checklist Tracker — Free Tool

Progress counts the 20 numbered checklist cards. The chase tier (autos, numbered parallels, 1/1s) is tracked separately because those are card types, not single slots.

Your ticks are stored only in this browser. eBay links are affiliate links — they cost you nothing.

How to use this checklist

Work top to bottom. The Donruss #177 family is where most collections start — that one number carries the base Rated Rookie, the chrome Optic version, and every colored parallel, so learning it lets you identify most of his important cards at a glance. From there the Topps UEFA Champions League block covers his Real Madrid chrome era, where the card number changes every season (which is exactly why people buy the wrong year).

Switch to Missing only once you have ticked what you own and the list becomes a want list. Each remaining row opens a live eBay search already pre-filled with the set, year and card number, so you skip the wrong-year mismatches entirely. Filter eBay to Sold items to see what copies actually trade for rather than what sellers are asking.

Before you buy the gap

For anything at a serious price, buy graded — a PSA, SGC or BGS slab authenticates the card and locks in its condition. If you are weighing whether to slab a raw copy you already own, run the numbers in the Grading ROI Calculator and check the card against the Centering Tool first — centering is the usual grade killer. Our grading decision guide walks the whole call.

The written reference behind this tool is the Vinícius Júnior card checklist, which explains each set family in full. For the wider picture, see the rookie cards that matter, the most-valuable cards, the parallels & rarity guide, and the year-by-year timeline. Once your values are dialled in, log them in the Collection Value Tracker.
