From the comic The Adventures of Tintin, Flight 714 to Sydney, the Carreidas 160 is a supersonic business jet owned by Laszlo Carreidas, "the millionaire who never laughs".
This time the adventure takes Tintin, Snowy, Captain Haddock and Professor Calculus on a flight with millionaire Laszlo Carriedas whose aircraft got hijacked on the way to Sydney and landed them on a mysterious fictional island.
Welcome aboard
You lift the top and see the luxurious interior of an aircraft where you can place a minifig to sit inside and enjoy the comfort of a private jet.
''The Wing!!! It's coming loose!''
Captain Haddock may have never seen a Swing Wing in operation before, but we don't need to be afraid of it here in Lego. The wing changes its shape to enable better performance for both landing and supersonic flight by easily moving two parts shown below.
''Thundering typhoons! Some people travel for fun!''
Landing on the island's short runway was definitely challenging. Play and have fun recreating the iconic landing scene or place the aircraft on a stand and appreciate the supersonic takeoff from your desk.
"Welcome to my island paradise!"
Place minifigs on a beautiful small diorama that resembles the fictional island, Pulau-pulau Bompa. Minifigs include: Spalding, Piotr Skut, Roberto Rastapopoulos, Tintin, Allan, Laszlo Carreidas, Captain Haddock, Snowy.

What makes it so special?
Apart from aircraft design and technical innovations, it's the story that makes this aircraft fly. That's why this set includes accessories which can be arranged in many different ways, allowing both playability and a more artistic approach to display the model.
Tintin comics are all about adventure, comedy and mystery and if you are an aviation and Tintin fan, this set will bring you endless fun and joy.
