Joey featured in FleshCards Series 3 NEW YORK - Three-dimensional plastics company MaXiMotion unveiled the third series of their adult-oriented FleshCards this week. Series 3 features 28 new lenticular motion images, including an array of mainstream and adult celebrities, including Mike Tyson, Joey Fatone Jr. from 'N Sync, rapper Redman, Penthouse Pet of the Year 2004 Victoria Zdrok, and porn stars Belladonna, Carmen Luvana, Cheyenne Silver, Shayla LaVeaux, and more. The cards are bigger, having increased in size to 2 1/2" x 3 1/2", and have higher resolution than cards from previous series. The cards also feature four-color back printing of the stars, just like baseball trading cards. "We can get 25 frames on video-quality animation on a card," said MaXiMotion president Fred Schecter. "You just bend back and forth and you?ve got a real video. The cards are packaged in packs like baseball cards and sold to retail." FleshCards has been getting a lot of press lately, including a plug on E! Entertainment Television's Howard Stern Show, when Zdrok gave Stern her FleshCard and talked about her impromptu photo session and man-handling by Mike Tyson at the Adult Entertainment Expo in Las Vegas last January. "Tyson and his posse loved the FleshCards and agreed to pose for me," Schecter told AVN Online. "I ran back to my booth and grabbed Victoria Zdrok, who was working our booth. I brought her to Mike and ran back for my tripod and camera. By the time I returned, Mike had already pulled her top down and was trying to tongue kiss her." To promote FleshCards, MaXiMotion is now giving a free Rockin' Swingers in-store demo display card holder to retailers or distributors with their purchase of the counter top display boxes of Series 1, 2, and 3. "We are in negotiations with major adult publications to provide them with FleshCards of their monthly centerfold to include as a premium in the shrink-wrapped magazine," added Schecter. "We are looking for sponsors to advertise their brands on those FleshCards, thereby eliminating the publication's expense." In addition, MaXiMotion is a major sponsor of the first-ever Super Model Expo, coming this June 26-27 at the Pennsylvania Hotel's Pennsylvania Pavilion in New York "We intend to hold a contest with prizes for the best pose by the attending models," said Schecter. "The winner and runner-up will be chosen by a panel of celebrity judges."
