Re: Finally, my White Whale I have caught!
To answer your question, the Kenner KITT is bigger than the Joyride KITT. The Joyride KITT is 1:18 scale, which only G.I. Joe sized action figures could fit into. The Michael Knight figure that came with 5.8 inches tall. I think that would make the Kenner KITT 1:15 scale, but I can't be sure (I'll ...

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

Re: Hot Wheels (Mattel) to release KITT in 2011!!!!
By any chance, does anyone have a pic of the dash from the Charawheels KITT? or know if there is the same sticker application that the Kenner KITT has? just picked one up MIB for a song, and wanted to know how much work I'll need to do on the inside. Something to tide me over till the 2012 KITTs rol...

Re: Finally, my White Whale I have caught!
I have a quick question regarding the KI200 VC, are the "Knight 2000" on the doors a sticker or a paint application? Thanks in advance.

Re: Hot Wheels (Mattel) to release KITT in 2011!!!!
I guess I am a little kid at heart, I'll be getting a few of these little bad boys. It's just as fun and challenging to mod the 1/64 scale cars as it is the 1/43 and 1/18 scale ones.

Re: Finally, my White Whale I have caught!
Thanks CB2001, I read about that too when doing a search. Gonna try straight Hydrogen Peroxide and see if that makes any difference. if nothing else I'll just slap a sheet of real light window tint on it and hide the yellow I hope this project comes out as well as my RC KITT did

Re: Knight Rider to receive the Minimates treatment this Jan
I picked up the SPM KITT off Ebay, I gotta admit they are pretty sweet! its a shame it doesn't revert to non-SPM mode but with new and old Knight rider merchandise (especially affordable) being sparse at best, I will not complain a lick about this little jewel! They did true justice to KITT in a MM ...

Re: My Hitari KITT and his Evil twin Skippy...err KARR
well I took your advice Knight Racer and re did the tail lights (instead of going to the internet I went to my Knight Rider box set and studied the DVDs) I also learned allot from looking at alcyon2sp's rendition of his tail lights and mounted mine flush inside the body instead of attaching it to th...

Re: Finally, my White Whale I have caught!

Looking for parts for a Kenner Knight 2000 voice car
Hey all, I just got ahold of a Knight 2000 voice car off of Ebay (sans the Michael figure) and was wondering if anyone had or knew where I could find parts for this (Mainly the windshield/hatchback windows) as the windows it has are faded and yellow. I plan on doing a full restore on this, Larson sc...

They are wired into the marker lights/fog lights switch and run off the same battery pack as the a fore mentioned. http://img10.imageshack.us/img10/1268/imag0190si.jpg http://img...

PBH, I already effectively cleaned out Ebay of their chrome and black TA's lol (well at least I did a couple of months ago when I did my 1/64 JL KITT) I have a couple of sets of those rims to spare :) My concern is the size difference between the HW and JL wheels. HW have notoriously been out of sca...

Re: Hot Wheels (Mattel) to release KITT in 2011!!!!
Thanks for confirming it to be an actual KITT Hotwheels Dave. I agree with msKEN, they couldn't get ahold of the old Charawheels KITT rim molds? That would have really set it apart from all the others. I am so gonna scour the net and stores for at least three, one for MOC, one for modding the wheels...

Re: Hot Wheels (Mattel) to release KITT in 2011!!!!
Shame Hot wheels got the contract, Johnny Lightning would have been a far far better producer for KITT. they already have a near identical FB/TA with the proper rims and rubber tires already out (1/64). SO much more detail too, interior and exterior wise (and I gotta admit much better rims than even...

Re: Hot Wheels (Mattel) to release KITT in 2011!!!!
I found this, too. Unfortunately, no real information has be posted. If they are, indeed, going to do an "Elite" version, I'd love to see it not only more accurate, but with a light up dash, and they should definitely fix that horrible scanner and make it more accurate. Heck, if Aoshima c...
