An updated version of the Atari 2600 with an exact replica of the original joystick seen on Knight Rider releases November 17 (this Friday as of this post) in the US. The joystick is seen in season 2, episode "Soul Survivor", in which a kid controls KITT with the popular Atari joystick. 8)...

I bought one for my niece earlier this year but I haven't been able to play with it or even see it put together yet because of time constraints.

I think it's a great (but expensive) toy for kids but I don't want one for myself. I have enough stuff!

Here is a Star Wars radio watch that has a different image and says 1982:

So I suppose it's possible they got the idea to use that design from seeing a Star Wars watch, instead of an earlier radio watch with that design.

The original watch was based on a Star Wars watch AM radio. I don't believe the original was based on the Star Wars watch, although the Star Wars watch is the same design. Look at the date on the box of the SW watch - it says 1983. I found this (which says 1980) but it may not be the first one with...

I noticed this too. At first I was just thinking and saying "Oh brother! What's a 3rd gen Trans Am doing in 1977?!" :x Then I re-winded and paused it before it hit me: "Oh mylanta! That's KITT!!! They re-used Knight Rider footage!" :lol: It would work for 1982 and a few years lat...

It was a fun day for me! I still worked my usual Monday hours but I made sure that my free time was Knight Rider related. I drove my KITT replica around town, while doing a couple of errands, and took some pics. I parked in front of the local GM dealer location that used to sell Firebird Trans Ams f...

This one is going for $137.50 + $12.50 shipping: https://www.ebay.com/itm/363922267428?epid=2255448096&hash=item54bb751d24:g:djUAAOSwkCJihSc-#shpCntId When it first came out i didn't feel like the wheels were accurate enough for the purchase price of I think $60. It should have come with a cust...

I thought I would share these well done video edits (which aren't mine), especially since Knight Rider is represented. 8) Short video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z0eflYLkI4A 1 hour video (recently posted): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ry9AsSO7hTo If you're like me, you can't get enough of th...

Yeah, I find it kind of surprising that this much merchandise has been showing up lately. I love the Playmobil KITT - looks like a great toy for kids.

Correction on my post: Date should be FEBRUARY 8, not January 8.

When casually watching the Olympics on NBC January 8, I heard something familiar - Knight Rider modified theme music! It was just played a few seconds before a commercial break. It kind of shocked me. :shock: I had to record the replay during the night to hear it again. Maybe NBC is hinting at somet...

Based on those preview samples, I'd have to go with Val Kilmer. Arnett sounds too robotic and harsh to me. Now, if Arnett could tone down his robotic sound and sound less harsh, I could change my mind 'cause Arnett may have a better voice suited for AI.

That's pretty funny stuff!

It's good to see something Knight Rider related and enjoyable on this 37th year KR anniversary day!

Quote from Knight Rider Help/Parts For Sale facebook page: "Sal Hanna: Time to dispel the rumors. 2 cars were used in this filming and yes we each paid appropriately. As many suspected Jennifer's car was primary, mine was the track car. Check out my post on the https://www.facebook.com/groups/f...

Then Riggs says "I don't know how to respond to that"

I was rolling with laughter and had to re-watch that part a few times. Too funny!!!

Although this was a tv show, self-driving vehicles will make people think Knight Rider in real life too, at least older people. lol

That was fun! For me, it's hard to believe that it first aired 35 years ago. I was only 12 years old and it blew me away.

Favorite line: "What's all this? Looks like Darth Vader's bathroom."

I think that first picture is a Firebird Formula. The Formula had the performance of the Trans Am without the added ground effects and big spoiler. The Firehawk, which had even more power, looked like the Formula, except maybe small differences. This Firehawk looks just like the Formula except, of c...

Thanks for that background info, Nicholas! That's interesting...

Well people who watched the show in the 80's wanted kitt cars so they went down to pontiac dealerships and asked for it.They considered making a kitt model however they knew that they would be held liable for people getting into accidents trying to perform those stunts on the show.I've always wonde...

Assuming that you're talking about a bumper sticker that says 'My other car is KITT', I don't know where there is any for sale but you can go to a website that makes customized stickers and have one made.

Very nice job of photoshopping and I really like it overall! 8) I just have minor complaints: I would rather have the black wheel caps solid instead of the see through kind that you have. Matt makes a good point about the wheels but I think we should go with what looks good and not worry about the ...

86678, I think they look normal like a regular stock Trans Am. From BoMcD's post, it looks like the inner part only needs to be altered. On my KITT, which already had the KITT front end when I got it, I think the inside part was just taken off. I have both a KITT replica from an '84 TA and a stock '...

I found myself asking the same question a few months ago.I looked at a few stock trans am pics and thought wow those are old looking cars.Then I looked at kitt.With the tail lights blacked out,rear spoiler,t-tops ,front bumper and scanner,proper hub caps/wheels all shined up it can hold its own in ...

Part of me agrees with you and the title of this thread and part of me disagrees. I agree with you because it will most likely be either a really bad movie or very mediocre. I have a large collection of movies and none of them were originally a TV series except for Star Trek and Get Smart. They just...

People think it's dated mainly because they just KNOW that it's a car from the '80s. For the most part, I don't think I'll ever think the design is dated. The only thing that seems kind of dated to me is the top windshield area which is very angular; but overall it's a great looking aerodynamic desi...
