Great editing of the KITT voice in the end of video skit.

[@Rodimusprimerib]

If you leave the button pressed down he turns the light bar on and it stays pulsing from side to side for a few minutes

[@kdisley]

So much nostalgia with this one... not only does it bring back so many memories of watching Knight Rider as a kid, but the transformation scheme is reminiscent of original, 1984 G1 Autobot cars like Jazz, Prowl and so on (flip down the hood, spread the doors like wings, make the back into the legs and rotate the waist). All very '80s! And I absolutely agree - if the make a transformable Batmobile, it has to be the 1989 Keaton jet-engine-on-wheels version. Having that huge turbine on the chest like Hearts Of Steel Prime and those huge front fenders as shoulderpads would look awesome!

[@eramferguson1701]

I would love to see Hasbro make a transformer out of the Mach 5 from the original Speed Racer.

[@myriadmediamusings]

Always felt the Legacy Override would be perfect for a Mach 5 Transformer.

[@ericdunn7352]

That would be AWESOME!!!

[@dialNforNinja]

TF:A Blurr was almost that anyway, aside from being a coupe instead of an open top. Mind you, I'd love to see that rereleased or given the Legacy treatment, as long as it's more LGC Prowl or Dtrongarm rather than Bulkhead or Arcee.

[@victorfries8859]

i was about to write exactly this!!!! YES!!

[@joemcgonagle7177]

Thankfully they didn't try to give a David Hasselhoff head/face. Definitely buying this. Loved the show as a kid n my first muscle car was an '84 Trans Am. Had a '78 Camaro a few years back also. Nothing beats having your car as a Transformer

[@SwiftpawWolffox]

Agreed. I prefer that he has a helmet that just evokes the 80s slick hairstyle, and the visor referencing both sunglasses and KITT's famous red bar/flashing screen. And the blue waist/thighs help break up the black with a homage of jeans without trying to look LIKE jeans. It's very well done. Trying to look too much like a specific character and not just iconic details is what ruins the second Jurassic Park set for me. But I don't mind it so much for resembling more fictionalized characters like the Dracula and Frankenstein Monster figs, or Party Whallop (though he still should of just been Metalhead!))

[@KnightroBlue22]

Thank you! That’s all I see on every facebook and instagram post but that would’ve been so much worse. Every collab borrows from the source character’s outfit, and we have the communicator watch. If he had hair and clothes, it would be so ugly

[@youtubewatcher112]

The are likely saving The Hasselhof sculp for a Marvel/Nick Fury crossover.

[@willisjackson7029]

I got to sit inside of the season 4 model that could transform into the Super Pursuit Mode back in 1984 and push buttons and watch it transform and even have the EBS flaps flip out. It was a great experience for sure.

[@pyrerock]

KITT had T-tops si it actually makes perfect sense for his roof to not match the rest of the body.

[@ShinGallon]

I wonder if it's possible to polish the plastic somehow to give him a more real-world shine regardless? Not buffing the plastic down, but using some sort of wax or actual polish on the car bits. Because I'd honestly do that with every car alt mode in my collection.

[@BS-Reviewz]

That SS86 boy already comin’ in handy for scaling.

[@shadowstate552]

Not digging the HUGE battery compartment, BUT : TRUE FACT! KITT was seldom shown with his headlights popped up, and it was later written into the writer's guide for the series to have his bumper lights used instead. THIS according to the Knight Rider Historians channel.

[@ShinGallon]

I wonder why they preferred the bumper lights? Pop-up headlights were one of the coolest things about 80s cars IMO.

[@thepowerfulwill1572]

I assume maintenance/tech issues. They are cool, but very inconsistent, and I could see them being an issue keeping things consistent in between cuts..​@@ShinGallon Either that, or the smooth hood was considered to be kitt's proper "face"

Lol. The face doesn't look like Hasslehof but he's colored like Michael Knight wearing blue jeans and a black jacket.

[@rainbowpegacornstudios]

I never thought they'd turn KITT into a Transformer. I'm just glad he's an Autobot.

Well yeah, they can always do KARR as a Decepticon if they want (with the supreme irony of having Peter Cullen's voice for him).

The robot mode is meant to kinda resemble Michael Knight. The mouth looks like Haselhoff’s and he’s wearing jeans just like Michael Knight usually did. Plus the upper body kinda evokes the look of Michael’s black leather jacket.

[@brandonmontiel3067]

Awesome review as always. Love K.I.T.T. & can't wait to get my pre-order. Always loved watching the show as a kid & still watch on occasion. Make an MP optimus in the foundation colors to go with Kitt. I would love to see an Enterprise (original or D) done, probably Titan class, but not a clue how they would do it.

[@TheGuardianofAzarath]

I watched Knight Rider when i was a kid, a friend of mine had a matchbox model of KITT. It's really cool that they did this. All we need now is a version of KARR with Peter doing the voice. We DEFINATELY need a Airwolf crossover though (got the season 1-3 dvd boxset earlier this year), only question is, which bot would The Lady be? Since there weren't that many female bots, there was only what? Arcee, Chromia, Firestar, Moonracer and Elita-1? (and certainly none of them were fliers) Nice editing at the end there. Fun fact, the actor who voiced KITT also provided the voice for Scythe 2.0 in The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy, they even drew the scythe with a red osilating sensor light as a reference to KITT. Look it up on youtube.

[@mitchelllawrence2798]

Can't wait to get this KITT Former in hand. We need a Decepticon KARR to match - Airwolf & A-Team.

Can definitely see this being retooled/repainted into Stakeout, though they may opt to drop the electronics and shrink him abit if so or at least drop the electronics. I use to think the leader combiner wars Megatron retooled could make a good Keatonmobile if they can get around rights issues.

[@SwiftpawWolffox]

Love that they got the introduction voice clip in there despite it being a bit longer. For all the people that didn't know (or remember) that KITT actually abbreviated something. Another nice touch is that in giving him weapons they look very similar to ones Michael did use over the course of the series.

[@Jazzer995]

I do something similar as you for the roof, but I rotate the roof first, so the black part is up. Also, he reminds me of an easier to transform Alternator, which makes me hope they might redo the series, considering my Meister is starting to yellow (and I don't want to use Toyhax). And with the Star Wars one coming out, we really need to get some Decepticon Crossovers - they're all Autobots (unless you count the dinosaurs from the JP ones).

[@michaelflores9384]

You know, I actually conceived of a Transformers Knight Rider crossover once. In this iteration, it is revealed that K.I.T.T is an autobot who was blasted out of the Ark's airlock when the Cybertronians landed on Earth 4 million years ago. However, when K.A.R.R is discovered to be a Decepticon and recruited by the other Deceps, Michael must team up with the Autobots to foil Megatron's latest scheme, in a story of action, emotion, and more reasons to question why Megatron even keeps Starscream around at all.

[@MichealHack-se7yr]

Awesome toy

[@joealvarez3724]

Emgo, I discovered that if you hold down the button for a few seconds, the red sensor light will turn on and trace back and forth without any sound. It does this for a long while before stopping. I counted the lights making their sweep 87 times! 🤓 😉

Packed in alt mode, as Primus intended! Lights and sounds in a non-3rd party Transformers toy? What is this, the late 90s? I do kinda wish it didn't bulk out the front of the car or was removeable for a sleeker look, but that's a nitpick, I still love this. KITT has been near the top of my Crossover Want List since they started doing these. Love that G1 style box (they really never have topped that box aesthetic, have they?) as well. The transformation not being a overcomplicated nightmare could be a thematic throwback to the simpler transformations of the 80s figures if you wanna get really meta. Personally I like it when transforming a figure doesn't require 30 minutes and an engineering degree.

The 3rd gen Firebird which Kitt is, is the same body/car tht MASK Thunderhawk is. Thunderhawk is a 3rd gen Camaro & the only difference really is the wheels & bumpers. The Camaro & Firebirds shared the same frame, doors, fenders, roofs, hatch, & quarter panels. An obvious repaint would be Thunderhawk which Hasbro owns. The rights from GM to make Kitt should extend to the Camaro Thunderhawk is.
