Vintage Tintin Congo Enameled Metal Collector's Figurine - Corner 1994 Official Hergé - 4.5cm Mint Condition

Rare opportunity to acquire an official and authentic 1994 Corner figurine in pristine condition as it has been carefully stored in a professional display cabinet to ensure its protection. This beautiful vintage piece is crafted from flat metal with high-quality enamel work and features Tintin in his iconic safari outfit from the adventure "Tintin in the Congo".

It is a genuine piece of history that belongs to a highly sought-after and limited collection produced by the manufacturer CORNER between 1994 and 1995 only. This specific collection was discontinued after just two years because the license was not renewed which makes these enameled pieces exceptionally rare for serious collectors today.

The collection consisted of only 51 figurines covering themes from the first 12 Tintin albums starting from "Tintin in the Soviets" through to "Red Rackham's Treasure". This specific figurine features the official hallmarks on the back including "C.O.N.G. I" as a reference to the Congo album along with "© HERGÉ TL 1994" and the "CORNER" brand name. These markings confirm its authenticity and its place within the limited production run of the mid-90s for any collector looking for original Hergé memorabilia.

Regarding its physical condition the figurine is in perfect mint state because the enamel and paintwork are completely flawless with no chips or scratches or signs of oxidation. The piece measures exactly 4.5 cm in height and 2.5 cm in width while weighing approximately 10 grams. It captures the original line-art style of the books perfectly through its classic flat metal design and stable integrated base which makes it an ideal addition to any high-end display.

Please note that while the original red cardboard and plastic packaging are not included the item has been meticulously preserved in a smoke-free environment and inside a glass cabinet. To maintain its current perfect state it will be professionally packed in bubble wrap and shipped inside a rigid box for maximum security.
