The Secret of the Unicorn: Part 1 - S1-E3
Continuity mistake: Whilst buying the model Unicorn at the market, between the time Tintin says "Will you take 20 dollars" and when he is interrupted by Sakharine, the sales in the background change entirely despite only a few seconds passing. (00:03:25)
Explorers on the Moon: Part 2 - S3-E12
Revealing mistake: When Jorgen points the gun at Tintin and co, Wolf starts to fight with him and there is a shot from outside the rocket. As this happens, look to the left of screen. One of the stars stays in the same position as the rocket continues to move.
The Secret of the Unicorn: Part 1 - S1-E3
Other mistake: When the pick pocket is listening to the radio at the beginning, he cuts right through the middle of a paragraph in a newspaper. Yet when we see paragraph cut out and in the journal, the paragraphs are in full sentences. If it were the right way round we'd see a half line on the paragraph. (00:01:30)
The Seven Crystal Balls: Part 1 - S3-E3
Continuity mistake: Just after Alcazar does his knife trick, the shot cuts to Tintin where he says "General Alcazar, I knew him in South America." As he says this, he turns his head around to Captain Haddock. In the next shot, his head is now directly facing Alcazar.
The Secret of the Unicorn: Part 1 - S1-E3

Other mistake: When Sanders finishes the translation, he puts a full stop at the end of the sentence, but there's no sign of the full stop on the paper.
The Secret of the Unicorn: Part 1 - S1-E3
Audio problem: When Tintin walks into Sakharine's apartment, he says "Mr. Sakharine". His mouth doesn't move when he says it. (00:06:30)
Deliberate mistake: Captain Haddock finds out the SOS was a fake so he tells the engine room to increase speed. Just after they increase speed and Tintin says "The people financing the Peary", we can tell the boat isn't moving since the background is entirely still and not moving an inch. (00:14:45)
The Secret of the Unicorn: Part 1 - S1-E3
Deliberate mistake: After Francis Haddock kills Red Rackham, he lights a fuse to the explosives. The fuse that was lit is only a foot long, yet he is somehow able to climb out the ship without anyone noticing, get into a boat and swim all the way to land before it explodes. At a foot long it would have exploded in 10 - 15 seconds, all of that would taken at least 10 minutes. (00:18:45)
The Secret of the Unicorn: Part 1 - S1-E3
Audio problem: When Tintin is in the phone booth, you can hear him turn the rotary dial, but his fingers aren't touching the dial. (00:07:50)

Audio problem: When Tintin says to Haddock "they'll kill you", his mouth doesn't match what he says. (00:32:15)
The Crab with the Golden Claws: Part 2 - S1-E2
Audio problem: When Tintin says "When we reach Baggar we'll check in at the harbour master's office", his mouth doesn't match up with what he's saying. (00:31:30)

Chosen answer: If Hector was seriously intent on removing King Ottokar's scepter from the glass cage holding it and launching it through the window with the camera, then Hector would have been forced to knock out the two guards so they would not have interfered with Hector's plan as soon as he removed the scepter from the glass. As for Hector, himself, was explained when Tintin was explaining how Hector stole the scepter. Tintin placed a twig inside the camera and it launched out of the camera. Hector would have placed the scepter inside of the camera, and would have been knocked unconscious due to the spring effect created when the scepter had been launched.
