Platform 9 ¾™ – Build me together! Welcome to the Wizarding World™!

Platform 9 ¾ – the name alone conjures up another world, a world full of secrets and magic, hidden doors, magic and secret passages. In the Harry Potter books and films, young witches and wizards board the Hogwarts Express at platform 9 ¾ of London’s King’s Cross station every 1 September at eleven o’clock, which takes them to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, just like in the film “Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone”. But to get to platform 9 ¾, the students (and their luggage trolleys) first have to cross the massive barrier between platforms 9 and 10 without attracting the attention of the surrounding Muggles.

The enchanting Platform 9 ¾ from Ugears is a new wooden model in the Ugears Harry Potter™ collection (which also includes the mechanical DIY wooden models Hogwarts™ Express, Flying Ford Anglia™, Riding Knight™, Hagrid’s Flying Motorbike™ and the Advent Calendar). The platform is an attractive static model that recreates the Victorian style of King’s Cross station with its magnificent brickwork and vaulted ceilings. The model includes a centre platform with upward curving arches, a platform sign, a section of track and the figures of Harry and Ron with luggage trolleys and suitcases containing their school supplies. Cardboard walls with decorative details complete the realistic look of the historic railway station design with added dark and mystical touches such as a spider’s web and a rat (Scabbers – is that you?).

Imagine you’ve broken through the barrier and are joining the young wizards and witches and their school adventures as you build and play with this wooden model of the railway platform from the Harry Potter™ collection by Ugears! Are you one of the young witches or wizards who have just bought their first wand from Ollivander in Diagon Alley? And which pet have you brought along to keep you company during the school year at Hogwarts? Or are you one of the advanced students wondering who the two new wizards on the platform might be and whether they will be assigned to your boarding house? This detailed Ugears model of Platform 9 ¾ will spark your children’s imagination and transport them to the wonderful wizarding world of Harry Potter™.

Collect all the wizarding models in the Harry Potter™ collection from Ugears and then explore the wide world of 3D mechanical puzzles, model kits, automata, robots, wooden puzzle boxes and STEM Lab kits from Ugears.
