nffan2019 USHm, ok. Anyone who's watched the show before will know how all four tires on that Citroën blew out. This is from Season 2, Ep. 1, "Tintin and the Shooting Star". During a dream sequence, the heat from a VERY nearby star causes all sorts of problems during the dream: Pavement (Tintin called it tar) melting, animals panicking, even blowing out tires on cars.

Ahem, hint hint nudge nudge. Why this was happening was what Tintin said: "The heat is blowing out the tires!" Why? Because temperature and atmosphere matter in a tire. When it gets hot, as in the case of his dream, the heat from the star heated up the air in the tire dramatically. That, mixed with the melting pavement, gave all the ingredients for a perfect blowout. Four, to be exact.

...but I think a lot of people already knew that. Just typing for kicks. ;P

Gamer DEI did not know this before, but apparently in the first color version from 1950, the Thom(p)sons drove a Peugeot 201: http://dardel.info/tintin/OrNoirPV35.jpg 2021-12-23 19:17
Gamer DESince this was given a model name without prior stating, and due to the fact that there is only one other on the site, here the car in the original:

Gamer DEInteresting continuity which only someone like me would notice - in Tintin in the Congo, there were two Model Ts used!

On the cover and when Tintin first sets off it's a 1923 model (slanted windscreen and old valance)

Yet when he sets off the next morning it becomes a 1926-27 'New Beauty' (larger, rounded windscreen, headlights moved further back)

johnfromstaffs ENOUK was Wolverhampton, as indicated by my £15 Austin Cambridge, OUK 478, bought following the demise up a lamp post, of my 1960 VW 1200, so there we have it. My father bought PUK 394, a Morris Cowley, new from Bradburn and Wedge the Wolverhampton Morris main agent in October 1955.

OUK 586 was Warwickshire, 1954 so useless for a Herald. It's a nice model, but very strange huge rear plate which takes up the entire rear panel.
2020-04-29 14:46
Gamer DEAnd the original comic was made in 1937. But the last digit was obscured, so it might not be 131 if that changes anything.

In the 1966 revision it was replaced by a Triumph Herald with OUK 586. (556? 596?)

Gamer DEThe green car from 1.08 could be readded. In the comic, we only see it from the rear, which explains the generic looking front; the artists made it up.

However, the true front of the car is visible on the October 1934 issue of Le Petit Vingtieme: Link to "assets.catawiki.nl"

Gamer wrote Something interesting and slightly off-topic that I never knew before: it appears Hergé drew a new cover for the Soviet adventure (which was not adapted) years later:
http://i066.radikal.ru/1003/1c/0f3960fcbb3d.jpg

If I recall correctly, that's not Hergé's work. Another artist had done this for a "pirate" colored version of the Soviet adventure. They traced Tintin and Snowy from the cover for "Tintin and the Picaros".

PMEntertainmentLives QCThis shot was animated for a 4-minute pilot, before work started on the official cartoon series. The same shot was later inserted into episode 12 of season 1 (The Calculus Affair: Part 1). This was pretty much the only car to be seen in the pilot, aside from the pink Morris from The Broken Ear, seen in a shot that would later be recycled for the show's opening sequence.

Keats AU[quote=savmagoett]Hi guys, I have a question about this vehicle:

Early 50s Plymouth sedans (1954 or so) had a similar rear window.

savmagoett BEHi guys, I have a question about this vehicle:
[Image: i864184.jpg]
Even though it was made of for the imaginary country of Borduria with the adding of the mustaches, I'm quite sure it is inspired by an actual car (or more than one). The version of the tv show does not really interest me, but the one from the album does. See below:
[Image: image1b.jpg]
[Image: image2b.jpg]
The way the rear window joint the side window is familiar to me, I'm sure there is a car like that. The shape of the hood and the way the windshield is one with the side windows are also specific traits that could come from a real car. So if anyone could think of a car(s) that resemble this one, I would be glad to know it. Any help appreciated :)

I would say 1936. There is another view of the car in the comic, after being towed out of the harbor basin, where a long arrow-shaped vent is visible - I haven't found any 1936 US car with such a vent.
