Tintin in Tibet: Part 1 - S2-E6

Continuity mistake: When Haddock points out to Tintin he was dreaming about the crash on the news, the background shows a pitch black sky (around 11 o'clock sky). Yet a further two shots later, the background shows a partially lighter sky (still night, around 7 o'clock). (00:03:55)

King Ottokar's Sceptre: Part 1 - S2-E4

Other mistake: Tintin walks into Hector's apartment to give him his briefcase. An animation error occurs regarding his magnifying glass in the shot where Hector says "Just leave the mail on the table if you please." For the first few frames of shot, the circle around the edges of the magnifying glass is colored yellow. Then as he says the line, the edge of the magnifying glass suddenly flickers to black during the shot. (00:01:55)

The Broken Ear: Part 2 - S2-E3

Other mistake: In a flashback of Lopez stealing the gem stone, he places the idol in his bag and closes it. If you watch the idol as it closes, an animation error occurs where it vanishes from shot just before the bag finishes closing, revealing that the animators forgot to draw it in each individual frame.

The Broken Ear: Part 2 - S2-E3

Continuity mistake: When Tintin wins the game of chess, General Alcazar begins bellowing and ends up knocking all the chess pieces over. The shot after he says "A little joke" shows all the pieces suddenly upright. Tintin then moves another chess piece and all the chess pieces are lying down on the table again. (00:29:20)

The Broken Ear: Part 1 - S2-E2

Other mistake: The villains lower a rope with a noose in it. They place it over a man's beard they believe to be Tintin. The noose is not tight yet, but it suddenly is when they pull on the man's beard, with no way for them to tighten it. (00:17:45)
