Tintin & Snowy – 46007 – Tintin et Milou – Tintin Museum Collection Resin Model – Le Musée Imaginaire de Tintin – Limited Edition – 2017

A highly detailed limited-edition resin figure depicting Tintin and Snowy (Milou), the central characters from Hergé’s world-renowned The Adventures of Tintin. Produced by Moulinsart in 2017 as part of the prestigious Le Musée Imaginaire de Tintin collection, this officially licensed collector’s piece presents one of the most recognisable pairings in twentieth-century comic art.

Since his first appearance in Tintin in the Land of the Soviets in 1929, Tintin has become one of the most celebrated characters in world literature and graphic storytelling. Accompanied throughout his adventures by his loyal fox terrier Snowy, Tintin’s journeys have captivated readers across generations and have been translated into dozens of languages worldwide. Together they remain the defining image of Hergé’s artistic legacy.

This beautifully sculpted composition captures Tintin in a classic walking pose, holding documents whilst gesturing ahead, with Snowy faithfully accompanying him. Based directly upon Hergé’s original artwork, the sculpture successfully conveys the distinctive ligne claire style that made Tintin one of the most influential comic series ever created.

Expertly cast in resin and hand-painted in polychrome colours, the figure combines museum-quality presentation with exceptional attention to detail. The sculpture is mounted on a metal base and remains faithful to the proportions and characterisation established throughout Hergé’s original albums.

The figure stands approximately 25 cm high, whilst Snowy measures approximately 8 cm high. Presented in its original Le Musée Imaginaire de Tintin packaging and accompanied by its numbered certificate of authenticity, this example remains in new condition.

The Le Musée Imaginaire de Tintin collection celebrates the most important characters, objects and themes from the Tintin universe through carefully produced display sculptures intended for serious collectors. As the principal characters of the series, Tintin and Snowy occupy a special place within the collection and remain among the most desirable subjects produced.
