Other reviewers have noted that this store, right off the main square in the heart of Brussels, could offer much more. It occupies a large space but has the feel of a luxury boutique with much of the merchandise in glass display cases. I bought the full collection of Tintin in French, but to my disappointment, the same collection was not available in English or German. Instead, there t-shirts and plastic figures and biographies of Herge. All of this has its place of course, but considering that this shop is a major draw for foreign tourists, I would expect to see more books. After all, Tintin has been translated into over 100 languages, and is sold worldwide.…

I've been a Tintin fan ever since I started reading! From individual comic books to box sets to Legos and action figurines, I kind of have it all, and thus it goes without saying that since I was there, I wasn't going to pass up on the opportunity to visit the Tintin boutique.

Yup, it's the kind of place you'd go nuts, and why wouldn't you! PS: Look for discounts. If you're lucky you could get a t-shirt for EUR 10! I know I did!…

If you are a die-hard Tintin's fan, this is a must-see shop. Familiar stuff bring back all the wonderful childhood memories. Wish the shop has more products, from food to clothes, to books... Would be nice if there is a life-size Tin Tin's image board.

However, one of the shop assistants was very rude. She clearly didn't seem to enjoy her work. When I asked her a question, her attitude was really rude, spoiled my Tintin experience. Anyway, the guy at the cash desk was nice and friendly.…

Any Tintin fan would have to pay a visit. Fantastic little shop with many an interesting Tintin thing to purchase. Loved the watches. Daughter purchased a Snowy dog which I thought an excellent choice! You pay for what you get, and what you get is good quality stuff!
