Description from the seller

Tintin – “The Crab with the pincers of gold” – The Damaged Car & The Luxor Tow Truck + The Red Renault NN Taxi – Set of 3 vehicles 1:43 – Atlas Editions

Description

A very beautiful set bringing together three 1:43 scale vehicles from the album The Crab with the Golden Clissors, part of the Tintin on the Road collection from Atlas Editions.

The first scene combines The Damaged Car and The Luxor Tow Truck, mounted on the same large base. The beige damaged car, with Tintin at the wheel and Milou by his side, is inspired notably by a 1938 Amilcar. The orange tow truck “Luxor Towing” is inspired by a Matford V8. This scene corresponds to the moment when Tintin tries to pursue the kidnappers of Captain Haddock before discovering that the car he has just taken is actually damaged and being towed. Tintin
The third model is The Red Renault NN Taxi, recognizable by its orange-red bodywork and black roof. It reproduces the taxi used in the adventure and is based on a Renault NN from the 1920s.

The set is particularly interesting for display thanks to the large Luxor Tow Truck + Damaged Car ensemble, complemented by The Red Renault NN Taxi.
