KIFT toy from 1990's
So I came across a few KIFT toys from the 90's on Ebay, and they seem kinda cool. To my dismay, I found out it doesn't have any working scanner or anything, it just sits and moves around. Any small scanner I can maybe put in the front or something? I wish they had a bigger and better version of it too.

I guess that's the 1/24 plastic modelkit of KIFT? I think the technology in the 90's wasn't there yet for supertiny LED components we have today or they were too expensive for a modelkit.
Aoshima released KITT plastic modelkit in 1/24 scale years ago, I think late 2000's which has optional working LED scanner unit. KIFT's nose is much more rounded than KITT's but maybe that unit could be used for working scannerlight for KIFT as well? Not sure how the width fits in it though.

I have the AMT KIFT and Aoshima KITT plastic models and sadly the Aoshima LED scanner won't fit due to the shape of the nose on the car. Would be awesome if it could work though!
