DO WANT these Koei Visa Cards: Someone get them for me photo

They're only available in Japan, so I have no applicable use for them. Nevertheless, my wallet feels naked and empty without a hot Koei Visa card in it. Videogame-themed credit cards seem to be quite popular, with PlayStation and Capcom already making it more fun to accrue a mounting debt. Now Koei has joined the party with four of its own plastic leeches. 

The only one I'm interested in is, obviously, the Dynasty Warriors one. I have no no idea what the other three are, but I'm guessing its some Japanese nonsense that never made it Stateside. In any case, that first one is good and I need to own it, somehow.

If anybody's heading out to Japan, please steal me one of these. I wouldn't normally advocate credit card theft, but then, credit cards don't normally have Zhao Yun on them.

None of those other Koei cards depicts Gitaroo Man, and that genuinely disappoints me.

Normally I'd be happy to PAY for this kind of awesome.
But at the rate that I have been known to lose / break debit cards, this would be a bad idea.
Do something about this, crummy VISA / Barclays

FYI - the Capcom visa card is NOT a credit card and you don't get into debt using it. It is a prepaid card that costs less than a checking account (no $35 overdraft fees!!!) to use and gives back rewards for using it. I work in the card world and will check to see what is happening with Koei in North America.

Bah, Zhao Yun. Make one with Zhou Yu or Zhen Ji and I'll gladly move to Japan to use one.
