The Appeal of Tintin Model Cars

The Adventures of Tintin, created by Belgian artist Hergé, has thrilled audiences with its intricate plots, unforgettable characters, and exquisite artwork. The vehicles featured in Tintin’s adventures are iconic in their own right, playing crucial roles in the storyline and adding depth to the visual narrative. Back in 2008, Moulinsart created a range of diecast 1/43 scale model cars in collaboration with Editions Atlas. All seventy models were from the adventures of Tintin, reflecting Hergé’s evident love of cars, real or imagined. This fine new series of diecast model cars by Moulinsart, in collaboration with Hachette, are at 1/24 scale, twice the size, and highly detailed. They celebrate these classic cars, leaving nothing out from Hergé’s masterful pen strokes, providing collectors with a tangible piece of Tintin’s world.

Expertise and Craftsmanship

At Hornseys, we understand the importance of authenticity and quality. Each model in the collection is a testament to the dedication and expertise of Moulinsart and their exacting standards, ensuring that every detail is faithfully reproduced.
