I have a model car from the Tintin book "Broken Ear." I think it is scaled at 1/24, with the driver Tintin, passenger Snowy, and one tough looking machine gun. Measures approximately 12-14 inches. What is the price of a car like that. It is in good condition.

Hi joboni, welcome to the forums!

I donâ€™t collect cars myself, so I canâ€™t help you there; however, it might be best to add some more details if you have them: the manufacturer, how old it is, and that sort of thing. It sounds quite big, so it doesnâ€™t seem to be one of the recent cars collection.

Well, Iâ€™ve done a little Googling, and it would appear that there were some variations on this vehicle - the first without the figures, the later ones with. Have a look here. I canâ€™t say if there were other editions in different configurations, but at least it is a start.
As to price I have no information, but you may be able to Google that yourself (I tried â€œTintin voiture oreille cassee aroutcheffâ€ myself) and get an idea.
