With a seemingly singular purpose of laying his hands on the treasure of Red Rackham, there is a nagging feeling that there is more to Sakharine's determination than just plain greed.

It isn't until the final battle that the truth which has been luring Captain Haddock across the world becomes clear.

Sakharine is a direct descendant of Red Rackham with a lust for blood and a strong determination to avenge his forefather.

The Weta bust of Sakharine is a polystone resin piece created from the actual digital model made by Weta Digital for the new movie The Adventures of Tintin, and was finished and prepared by the artists at Weta Workshop.

He makes an excellent start to any Tintin collection, as well as a superb complement for those who have collected Classic Tintin pieces over the years.
