Obelix and a smurf were an alien presence in this Tintin shop window.
Was very tempted by the shark submarine with Tintin and Snowy inside.
Useless factoid of the day: In French books Snowy is called Milou. Captain Haddock is still called Captain Haddock, though I suppose it is pronounced 'Addock'.
A real Tintin collector’s paradise! I agree with you regarding the shark submarine, but that blue Oldsmobile (I think it’s called that) with Tintin and Snowy on the running board is also neat. Love Obelix, although I had to really hunt him down amongst all the Tintin items. Delightful shop window, the type you could spend a good half hour looking at.
The book in the window (les Cigares du Pharaoh) is a bit politically incorrect for 2022. Buts really ok. The cigars are really used to smuggle opium!!!
