Ugears 121973 Mechanical Model Kit - Harry Potter Platform 9 3/4

Assemble me. Welcome to the Wizarding World™!

The enchanting wooden model Platform 9 ¾ by Ugears is a new addition to the Ugears Harry Potter™ collection. This attractive train platform model is a static display that replicates the Victorian era look of King's Cross station with its beautiful brickwork and ceiling arch. The model includes a two-sided platform with upward curving arches, platform sign, a section of track, and two figurines of Harry and Ron with luggage trolley and suitcases loaded with their school things. Detailed decorative cardboard walls complete the realistic design look of the historic station, with added touches of dark mystery, like a cobweb and rat (Scabbers-is that you?).

Platform Nine and Three-Quarters-just the name conjures up an alternate world of mystery and magic, hidden doors, spells and secret passages. Platform 9 ¾ at King's Cross Station in London is where the young witches and wizards in the Harry Potter series of books and movies board the Hogwarts Express train every September 1 at eleven o'clock to travel to the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, as seen in the movie "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone." But to get to Platform 9 ¾ , the students (and their luggage carts) had to first dash through a solid barrier between platforms 9 and 10, without attracting the attention of any nearby Muggles.

Imagine you have passed through the barrier and are joining the young wizards on their school adventures as you build and play with this wooden model train platform from the Harry Potter™ collection by Ugears! Are you a young witch or wizard who just bought their first wand at Ollivanders in Diagon Alley? Which pet have you brought to keep you company during your semester away at Hogwarts? Or are you a senior student wondering who the two new wizards on the platform are, and will they be sorted into your same house? This detailed model Platform 9 ¾ by Ugears will fuel your children's imaginations and put them right inside the wonderful wizarding world of Harry Potter™.

You won't need glue or special tools to assemble your Platform 9 ¾ wooden model, just remove the pieces from their laser-engraved composite wood boards and snap them together following the detailed, illustrated instructions available in 11 languages.

This magical model of a handsome Victorian-era train station is a must-have for all fans of the Harry Potter™ series of books and movies. It also makes a wonderful gift for any train enthusiast, model hobbyist, collector of model trains, or anyone who loves to build with their hands. If your children enjoy Harry Potter™ books or have seen the movies they'll enjoy hours of imaginative play with the Platform 9 ¾ DIY model. A fun craft project for parents to build with their children, the Platform 9 ¾ model from Ugears is your introduction to a magical world of mechanics, wooden models and machines.
