The Lincoln Zephyr Model Car: 29902

A Collector’s Gem at Hornseys

Back in 2008 when Moulinsart created a range of diecast 1/43 scale model cars, their collaborator was Editions Atlas. All seventy of the models were from the adventures of Tintin. Hergé’s evident love of cars, real or imagined, came to life in this product range. This fine new series of diecast model cars by Moulinsart are from a collaboration with Hachette. At 1/24 scale, they are twice the size and highly detailed with nothing being missed from Hergé’s masterful pen strokes.

At Hornseys we take pride in offering exceptional collectibles that resonate with fans and collectors alike. Among our distinguished selection of Tintin Vehicles Scale 1:24 models, the Lincoln Zephyr Model Car is the second in this recent series of vehicles produced by Hachette and Moulinsart celebrating Hergé’s classic stories.
