Re: Sneak Peek of New Hot Wheels 1/18 KITT!!

You are all fussy. :P So, the nose isn't 100%. It's only a model . that reminds me of a quote from Monty Python and the Holy Grail Sir Lancelot: Look, my liege!

Re: K3000 parts price list! (Finally)

funny I am looking at getting a perfect donor car for a K3K, a 2008 V6 coupe with auto trans, with only 8K miles on it and it was punched in the front (gonna need a new front fascia, and hood at least). since it has a salvage title I may be able to get a deal on it. but things like those 20" al...

Re: ERTL KITT - Help needed

well the obvious things you need to do is: 1: smooth the outward curving tail light panel on the back of the car. 2: add the 'black outs' on the nose in front of the closed headlights, I have heard people either scratching the shape into the body and then repainting it, or an easier method is clear ...

Re: Kenner Voice car revamp

a great way to do the side marker lights (on the sides of the fenders) is bare metal foil sold in most hobby stores. you cut out a small piece a tad bigger than the marker, using a dull pointed but fine tip surface shape the foil around the marker till it sticks out by itself, then use a hobby knife...

Re: Sneak Peek of New Hot Wheels 1/18 KITT!!

I REALLY hope they do with what they did with the 89 and 66 Batmobiles and offer a lower cost less detailed version as well as the Elite version. I have the basic versions of the 66 and 89 Batmobiles and I hope they do the same for KITT. I love the attention to detail on that proto, like the under s...

yeah I have the original one the only thing I did to make it look better was remove the front 'lights' remove the mounting pins, ad some silver foil behind the lenses and re attached the lenses so they no longer have the pin holes.

Re: Hot Wheels (Mattel) to release KITT in 2011!!!!

They've done great things with the Hot Wheels Elite line, with the exception of the 1989 Batmobile (The $10.00 1:18 die-cast version from Hot Wheels was more accurate). I have the A-Team van and Ferris Bueller Ferrari. They're amazing! what is inaccurate with the 1/18 batmobile? I have one and I th...

Re: Help: Scan of Modelkit Buildersguide KNIGHT 400O AMT

FYI, the front and rear caps on the body must be glued, puttied and sanded (to remove the seams where the join the body) and painted before you can assemble the body to the chassis (the part that has the wheels and axles etc).
