In 2008, Moulinsart and Editions Atlas introduced a collection of diecast 1/43 scale model cars, featuring all seventy vehicles from Tintin’s adventures.

Crafted from painted metal with resin and plastic components, these diecast cars stand as artistic tributes to Hergé’s legacy. The bilingual brochure in French and English enhances the collector’s experience, providing deeper insights into the historical and artistic significance of each model.
