Aside from a few photos, we have seen precious little from the Steven Spielberg directed, Peter Jackson produced CGI motion capture adventure The Adventures of Tintin: Secret of the Unicorn. Today, we get a look at the first merchandise from the upcoming movie. They are build-your-own nuts and bolts metal models called Meccano. Now, you will be able to build your own Tintin pirate ship, airplane, and Jeep. Exciting or not, they offer a hint of the classic old timey feel Steven Spielberg and Peter Jackson are going for with this animated adaptation of the popular Hergé illustrated books.
