Abstract:
A stored value card device comprises a scaled down model car having an upper body molded into a promotional object model such as a car in association with car accessory products. The model car may be a still model as well as an animated version with the assistance of an electric motor connected to the wheels and a remote controlled driving circuit installed inside the model. The model body is provided at its lower side a card dock and has a partially flat surface at its side and/or top surfaces to provide the viewers with the card identification as well as other information on the stored data. The card dock has an outer plate formed with a large rectangular opening and four perpendicular sidewalls and an inner plate in a two-tiered structure to form a pair of parallel guide slots between the two plates of the dock.
