Description

Tintin scale model car 1:24 – Type 88 Sumida Wolseley (1928) – The Japanese Armoured Vehicle – No. 42 – Green – 1:24

Bring an exciting and adventurous moment from The Blue Lotus to life with this impressive scale model of the Type 88 Sumida Wolseley armoured vehicle from 1928. This model (No. 42) features the military vehicle in which Tintin and Mr. Wang travel during their escape.

An escape full of tension and danger
In the story, Tintin is being hunted and a reward of 5000 yen is offered for his capture. As the situation becomes increasingly dangerous, Tintin and Mr. Wang manage to take control of a Japanese armoured vehicle.

In this scene, they successfully pass through a military checkpoint. The armoured vehicle appears multiple times throughout the story and highlights the tension and danger of Tintin’s adventure in the Far East.

This scale model beautifully captures that moment: Tintin and Mr. Wang are inside the vehicle, with Snowy by their side. The green armoured car, with a Japanese flag mounted on the side, emphasizes the military character and historical setting of the story.
