Hergé in Syldavian Court Uniform 12 cm Resin Figure (Ref: 42259)

For the dedicated Tintinologist, page 59 of King Ottokar’s Sceptre (Le Sceptre d'Ottokar) represents a landmark moment in the history of the ligne claire. As Tintin stands amidst the grand, high-stakes celebration at the royal palace in Klow, Hergé chose this exact scene to slip himself directly into his own universe. Standing incognito among the Syldavian dignitaries and court officials, the creator witnesses his reporter's triumph firsthand. This exceptional figure brings that legendary Hitchcockian cameo out of the panel and onto the collector's shelf, capturing Hergé precisely as he appeared in the crowd.

Crafted with the uncompromising fidelity expected of the official Tintinimaginatio collection, this 12 cm resin figurine perfectly realizes Hergé's self-portrait in three dimensions. Every element of the brilliant green and gold Syldavian full dress uniform has been meticulously rendered—from the crisp tailoring of the high collar to the precise detailing of the ceremonial sash and shoulder epaulets. The hand-painted finish ensures that the vibrant, regal tones of the Klow court match the exact palette of the classic album. Balanced, dignified, and rich with comic history, it stands as a superb tribute to the mastermind behind the adventures, blending seamlessly into any serious collection.
