Re: KITT Keepsake ornament available Saturday

I have not gotten mine yet, but I did see it up close and personal. Pros: the 'sculpt' is very nice every thing that makes KITT, KITT is on this ornament the placement of the button for the voice he is made out of metal (this makes the price worth it) the working scanner the voice Cons: the scanner,...

Re: Aoshima 1/25 KITT model question

thanks I just hope I can still get it when I get paid later in the week I can get it for under under 60 shipped from Japan. which to me is a steal since I really just want the LED scanner thingy but that is almost as $$$ as the KITT/KARR models.

Re: Question on the cars used in filming the 80s series

yeah and I looked up the specs of my dad's 1983 Trans Am, he had a Daytona 500 Pace car replica and he had the Posi rear end and rear disc brakes, the only one of the F cars we had that had Posi and rear discs.

Aoshima 1/25 KITT model question

I have the chance to score a sealed 1st season car with the LED scanner for a good price shipped, and I had a few questions to those who had this model (or the season 3/4 car or KARR). 1: decals, does the kit just come with the KNIGHT plate on the back or do they give you any decals for say the gaug...

Question on the cars used in filming the 80s series

I was watching the episode of KR that had the blind 'eyewitness' from season 2, and there was a scene where Michael peels rubber out of a parking spot stops at the end of the parking lot that had a truck and reverses and does a 180 and takes off fast. Now the question I have is, did the production t...

Re: Knight Rider on Netflicks looks better then the DVDs

too bad they are edited they look like the versions that were in the first run syndication in the late 80s. I re watched the pilot and they had the scene where the car thieves try to break into kitt the first time by throwing a brick at the window which bounces off and knocks down one of the thieves...

Re: KITT Scanner Sound

i think the scanner sound was ONLY heard in the scene in the pilot when Michael sees him for the first time in the dark warehouse and the one in the 2nd link is the way it sounds everytime you hear it from then on to the end of the series in season 4 but do not quote me on that.

Re: 2013 K.I.T.T. - KNIGHT RIDER Hallmark Ornament

well MOST of the time they put the button someplace where it 'sticks out' on my 1966 Batmobile its on the 'trunk lid' behind the 3 pipes that stick out the back of the car. I saw on one of the upcoming releases the green/brown wagon for the first National Lampoon's Vacation movie (complete with Aunt...

Re: 2013 K.I.T.T. - KNIGHT RIDER Hallmark Ornament

I love that they placed the button that controls the light and sound on his gas cap door. As somebody who has 2 other TV/Movie based Hallmarks he should be a good size he should be same size as my Hallmark 66 Batmobile and Delorean time machine.

Re: Just heard the turbo boost sound in another show

specially since both shows were done by Universal I know I heard that sound your talking about on Battlestar Galactica (the fighter jets made it when they took off from the Galactia).

Re: Favorite lines?

I'd have to say that KR is easily one of the funniest shows I've seen. The dialogue between Michael and KITT was priceless. What are some of your favorite lines, spoken by either Michael or KITT? I've got a couple in my signature, and another one is, "You know, you're about as much fun as a di...

Re: ERTL AMT - Knight Rider

instead of editing I will just reply, the model IS nice but not as detailed as say the more modern Aoshima cars from Japan. The parts that make up KITT are all nicely represented, it has the dash, switch pods, gull wing wheel, lower console and the nose and scanner (FYI scanner part is part of the b...

Re: Ten 'Knight Rider' Knock-Offs That Failed Miserably

I remember that show as a kid, too. I think the transformation had to do with temperature change. He got hot and changed. something like that. I'm sure it was no coincidence the car looked like a 3rd gen T/A also. yeah heat changed him to car, cold turned him back, I always thought he was a blend o...

I hope that IF it does come out it has A: have a light up scanner or B: it plays the KR theme song. I have a 1960s Batmobile that plays the theme song from the Batman TV show when you press a button on the trunk lid.
