Tamiya model kit business cards

Japanese company Tamiya is known for its vehicle model kits. To promote the company in Thailand, it released name cards that double as sample model kits. Letters and numbers on this card can be snapped off and assembled into a simple car or airplane model. It appears this is a limited run meant for shops in Thailand only. But it’s a great idea and really defines the identity of the company.
