Description
Ugears is pleased to bring a unique automotive model to Harry Potterfans—the Flying Ford Anglia, a car with a mind of its own.
The Anglia is a faithful reproduction of the Weasley's enchanted Muggle car.Children will delight as they fly it through the air or pretend to race it alonga track just ahead of the Hogwarts Express. Who can forget the scene in HarryPotter and the Chamber of Secrets when Harry and Ron fly back to Hogwarts in theAnglia, before losing control and crash landing in the Whomping Willow? After anarrow escape, the young wizards and all their belongings get ejected by thecar, upset at the abuse it has received.
The Ugears Flying Ford Anglia has a spring drive that transmits torque to therear wheels, providing drive power. The car can travel 3–4 meters on a singlewind-up of the ratchet mechanism located on the undercarriage. The spring drumis safely tucked under the model car's seats, while the authentic rear licenseplate functions as the start/stop button. There is also a neutral gear that letsthe car roll freely.
The front wheels rotate 25 degrees in either direction and can be turnedusing the steering wheel or by pressing the wheels themselves, allowing the carto travel in a straight line or turn circles (you are in charge of making theAnglia fly!). The car rides on any flat surface, from carpet to slippery tile,thanks to the grippy rubber band “tires” encircling all wheels.
You can manually open the doors, trunk and hood of the Flying Ford Anglia.The open hood (or “bonnet” in the UK) reveals engine details, while thetrunk (or “boot”) is large enough to accomodate Harry's model suitcaseswith laser-engraved Hogwarts crest.
But here's where the real magic comes in: thanks to a special mechanismattached to the spring-loaded shaft running through the cabin, the Anglia has asecret “ejection” function. When the front license plate is pressed, thetrunk and side doors pop open while the tilting front seats and a lever in thetrunk dramatically throw all passengers and contents from the vehicle. PlaceHarry's suitcases in the trunk, press the front plate, and watch as they areunceremoniously ejected by the angry Anglia!
