GOLDENSNACEâ„¢
Build me! Catch the fluttering prize of Quidditchâ„¢!
The elusive Golden Snitchâ„¢, the ultimate Quidditchâ„¢ prize in the magical wizarding world of Harry Potterâ„¢, is now available as a DIY wooden model from Ugears. In Quidditchâ„¢, players fly around a stadium high in the air, trying to throw or hit a Quaffleâ„¢ through the rings on the generic side of the pitch, scoring ten points each time they do so. But the team whose seeker catches the Golden Snitchâ„¢ gets 150 points and wins the game. Join the hunt for this elusive golden prize as you build and play with Ugears' wooden mechanical model Snitch.
The design of the Golden Snitchâ„¢ is based on the descriptions and depictions of it in the popular Harry Potter novels and films. This spring-operated DIY model has a thread at the top that can be used to wind up an internal drum, which in turn causes the elegant feathered wooden wings to flutter as soon as the thread is released. Hold the snake and watch as it tries to escape by flapping its wings. Or hold it by the ring with the model facing down and be surprised as the Schnatzâ„¢ flies up to reach your hand! When you're not using the Schnatz, you can place it on its stylish stand on the table or on a shelf. You can also hang the model from a hook using the eyelet (ring) on the string so that your Schnatzâ„¢ floats in the air. The model has a silent ratchet mechanism and the tension of the spring is controlled by a pendulum to regulate the action of the wings. The stand and body of the Schnatz are made of 3 mm thick high-quality plywood, while the plywood of the two filigree wings is 1.5 mm thick. The kit includes a spare wing.
In the Harry Potter novels, the Golden Snitchâ„¢ is described as a walnut-sized golden ball with silver wings. In earlier times, quidditch seekers had tried to catch a small magical bird called the Golden Snitchâ„¢. However, when these birds were threatened with extinction, the resourceful metal wizard Bowman Wright invented the Golden Snitch to replace the bird in the game. If you build the Ugears Snitchâ„¢, you will become a resourceful wooden wizard. Potterheads will know that this is no ordinary Snitchâ„¢, but Harry's very own Snitchâ„¢ - the one he caught in his first Quidditchâ„¢ game. This Snitchâ„¢ was later bequeathed to Harry by Dumbledore, who had previously enchanted it with the magical inscription "I open at the end" and hidden the Resurrection Stone inside. The significance of this inscription is revealed in a crucial scene in the film "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2" is revealed.
The ingenious Golden Snitch™ kit is an "Easy" difficulty level model and part of our new "SMART" product range - a category of mechanical models that is a halfway house between the mini and standard models in terms of its size and complexity. With only 120 parts, the Schnatz can be assembled in around 3 hours. It joins the Hogwarts™ Express, Riding Knight™, Flying Ford Anglia™, Hagrid's Flying Motorbike™, Platform 9 ¾™ and Quidditch™ Flipper models in the Ugears Harry Potter™ collection. Everything you need to build and play with your Snitch is in the box - no glue or additional tools and pieces are required. Simply assemble the pieces of your 3D puzzle following the detailed and illustrated instructions in 11 languages (English, Ukrainian, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Portuguese, Polish, Japanese, Chinese and Korean). Don't forget to sand and wax the moving parts to ensure optimal operation (the kit includes a piece of sandpaper and wax). Leave the Snitch in its attractive natural wood state or stain or paint it gold and silver (or a colour scheme to suit your taste).
The Golden Snitchâ„¢ from Ugears is the perfect gift for Harry Potterâ„¢ fans.
