The Japanese toymaker Tamiya makes model kits. So the Bangkok advertising agency CreativeJuice made a business card that can be used to build a toy car, plane, or boat:
Apparently Tamiya realized that people didn’t fully appreciate the skill and design that goes into their plastic models, and conceived the card as a promotional tool to raise respect for their brand and business.

Mister Jalopy (a really nice guy, actually) got tired of people asking him for his business card, so he leveraged his Google ranking and printed this beauty:

If you Google my nom de bullshit, Mister Jalopy, all the top hits are for web pages that I control. And my e-mail address is right on the front page of all of them. For detractors, fans and spam scraping robots alike, I am super easy to find.
Despite my almost annoying ever presence, people are always asking for my business card. I understand. It is not so much about my contact information as a physical token of us having met. An artifact to record the moment. So, now I have a business card!
Just Google me!

Saving my favorite for last. Bringing out the child in all of us are
the Lego employee's business cards. A little miniature Lego of yourself
- how awesome is that?!?!
If these business cards don't inspire you to create a
unique and, well... geeky business card, I'm not sure what will. Just
have fun with it. No one will soon forget you, I'm sure.

This seals it: Steve Martin has got the best business card EVAR! This even beats out the previous titleholder of best business card that I found on Matt Cutt’s blog a while ago.

Chung Dha Lam, a student at Grafisch Lyceum Rotterdam in the Netherlands got the idea of his animated business card after receiving a special book called magic moving images. By using a printed overlay animation to vamp up his regular old business card, his mission was to catch more attention and make the receiver remember the card better and stand out from the others thus ensuring that it doesn’t get thrown away – as most business cards usually end up.
“Less is more and keep it simple”. - Chung Dha Lam
