Description

Tintin scale model car 1:24 – The Red Taxi – Renault 6CV (HP) Type NN (1927) – No. 25 – Red/Black – License plate MB-1420

Relive an exciting and humorous moment from The Crab with the Golden Claws with this detailed scale model of the Renault 6CV Type NN from 1927. This model (No. 25), known as “The Red Taxi,” brings an iconic chase scene from the Tintin universe to life.

A hectic chase in miniature
In the story, Tintin is searching for Captain Haddock when he suddenly hears shouting. He runs toward the noise and sees Haddock engaged in a fierce fight. When Tintin rushes into a garage, he discovers that Haddock has already been taken away in a black car.

Determined to rescue him, Tintin stops a taxi to give chase. However, a humorous situation unfolds: there is already a passenger in the taxi who wants to go to the station. A heated argument follows between Tintin and the passenger—a scene beautifully recreated in this model with the included figures.

Using a clever trick, Tintin scares the passenger away by claiming his dog is prone to biting. As soon as the passenger gets out, Tintin orders the driver to follow the black car… but by then it has already disappeared. This scene perfectly combines action, humor, and improvisation—hallmarks of Tintin’s adventures.

A classic Tintin moment
The red taxi with black roof and license plate MB-1420 is a recognizable and beloved element from the story, making it a must-have for fans and collectors.
