These digital cards are attached to products and issued by the creation station. The in-store cards are attached to specific products and allow the user to play with the toy they purchased on the interactive window or online. The creation station cards are issued by the station when you complete the design process of a character, and the cards also gives a 10% discount in-store and online to enourage people to do more than just play with the window.

This is a technology which is quite new, and its how the digital cards work, there is a barcode on the back which dedicated cameras read and are able to track the location of so a toy is created in the space in front of the camera. Click here for more information about Microsoft Tag.

Here is a sample of a real tag, it has encode in it the date time and card number so it is able to determine which toy is yours, or if its a limited edition one then it simply contains the toy’s number so you can use that instead.

Example code: 160119881640001 (DDMMYYYHHMMNNN)

Limited edition code: LE0001 (LENNNN)

(LE) Limited Edition, (D)ay, (M)onth, (Y)ear, (H)our, (M)inute, (N)umber is the issue number for that toy or time.
