The Admiring Skeptic:
Let's say that Voldemort has become Vapormort, infant Harry has been
deposited at the Dursley's, and 18-yr-old Harry has to find somplace to
hang out incognito for the long haul of the next 17 years. How about he
gets himself transfigured into a little old lady and parks himself two
blocks away from the Dursley's to keep an eye on his infant self? Mrs.
Figg is really 18-yr-old Harry! (who is really Tom Riddle!) What's nice
about this speculation is that it gives Mrs. Figg a very good reason to
care so much about child Harry, and also a very good reason to waste so
many years of her life as an old lady in Little Whinging, something
missing from all the other hidden-identity-Mrs-Figg theories.

Hi.  I'm new to the list and have been enjoying reading the posts.  I
thought this idea was intriguing as it would also explain why Mrs. Figg
apparently 'broke her leg' the day of Dudley's birthday trip to the zoo.
If she was just a witch placed in the neighborhood to watch over Harry,
then she could have had it magically repaired and still babysat Harry.
But if she was Harry, then she would know she needed to make that excuse
so Harry would go with the Dursleys.
