Macross themed debit/credit cards, do they exist?

It's just a random thought, but did any banks in Japan ever make any? They would be rather collectible if any were ever issued.

There was a series Valkyrie (VF-1x) credit cards put out by a Japanese bank. ^_^;

Too bad I didn't know anyone in Japan at that time.

i've got a pamphlet from the early 2000's for this "MACROSS OFFICIAL CARD" credit card series, consisting of

a JCB version and a VISA version, each with Tenjin HASEGAWA box art of either Ichijo's DYRL VF-1A or Focker's VF-1S,

both in FIGHTER mode.

i'll have to take the time to dig it up...

If you have "Valkyries" by Hidetaka Tenjin, on page 46 is the artwork for the GE Visa Card (VF-1S, Roy), and page 48 has the GE JCB Card (VF-1J, Hikaru).
