Platform 9¾ Model Kit

Description

Platform 9¾ Model Kit… the name alone evokes an alternate world of mystery and magic, hidden doors, spells and secret passages. Platform 9-3/4 at King’s Cross Station in London is where the young witches and wizards from the Harry Potter books and film series board the Hogwarts Express train every first of September at eleven o’clock to travel to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Hocus-Pocus. As seen in the movie “Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone.” But to reach Platform 9-3/4, students (and their luggage carts) first had to run through a sturdy barrier between platforms 9 and 10, without attracting the attention of Muggles nearby. The enchanting wooden Platform 9-3/4 model from Ugears is a new addition to the Ugears Harry Potter™ collection (also featuring do-it-yourself wooden mechanical models of the Hogwarts™ Express, Flying Ford Anglia™, Knight Bus™, Hagrid’s Flying Motorbike™). This attractive platform model is a static display that mimics the Victorian look of King’s Cross Station with its beautiful brickwork and ceiling arch. The model includes a double-sided platform with upward curving arches, platform sign, track section and two figurines of Harry and Ron with luggage cart and suitcases loaded with their school supplies. Detailed decorative cardboard walls complete the realistic design of the historic station, with additional touches of dark mystery, such as a spider web and a rat (Scabbers, is that you?). This magical model of a beautiful Victorian-era train station is a must-have for all fans of the Harry Potter™ books and movies. It also makes a wonderful gift for any train enthusiast, model hobbyist, model train collector or anyone who likes to build with their hands. If your children love Harry Potter™ books or have seen the movies, they will have hours of imaginative play with the Platform 9-3/4 DIY model. A fun craft project that parents can build with their children, the Platform 9-3/4 model from Ugears is the introduction to a magical world of mechanics, wooden models and machines.

The kit consists of approximately 230 parts. Estimated assembly time: 3 hours
