Awesome KITT JYD Diaroma here!

Would bid on it myself but found one problem. The word pit is spelt wrong on the diaroma itself.

The guy has sold a few, looking at his fb record, so paying reasonably good money for a glaring mistake wouldn't be right, IMO.

Apart from that it's great looking don't you agree?

I'm surprised more ppl haven't said anything about it. It's pretty awesome. But if the guy corrects the spelling mistake, I'd have no problem investing in it. :D

I think it's not a real spelling mistake, but a pun for Kitt/Pitt :)

Hi There,

I created the Diorama and would like to thank everyone for the nice comments:)

The spelling of PITT was done deliberately to phonetically "rhyme" with KITT. Of course if anyone wanted me to change that before purchase, that would be easilly rectified:)

So I was right! Oh, I'M so cool :)

Man, you have made a spectacular diorama there. I'm always amazed when I'm looking at it on the web, it's so... life-like. And it captured one of the most remembered scnes of Knight Rider. Being a newbie in scale-modelling, I simply worship modellers like you. Great job!

Hmmm... I don't know about that. I mean, who would want a model of Kitt getting destroyed? I wouldn't, it reminds me of that sad moment...
Michael: Kitt what matters to me is who you are not what you look like. Sure we don't have the car so we can't turbo boost so we can't go over 200 miles an hour but it was all icing on the cake anyway

You could put it next to the "white" KITT so you have the "death" and "rebirth" of KITT lol.

I'm always looking for new things to do that havn't already been done, and there's not much available. I always remember the scene from Junkyard dog so i thought i'd give it a go :)

Excellent diorama! Building Knight Rider diorama's is great and original idea since I haven't seen other KR diorama's anywhere.

There are only so many variations of KITT but Knight Rider is more than just KITT, for example one could build 1:18 (or whatever) scale FLAG headquarters, semi, Goliath, buildings from memorable episodes such as Knightmares dam, the mansion from Soul Survivor etc.
