Kenner "Knight 2000 Voice Car" and NEW box!!

Post by 2fast4u » Sat Aug 19, 2006 8:48 am

The 16th August I won an auction on eBay for a wonderful Kenner model with voice module in perfect condition. The only problem is that this model came loose, so without a box.
With good tools (Paint Shop Pro 8 and a laser printer), I have ricreated the box layout: it's not perfect and I will optimize it, but I think at the moment it looks good!!
I have printed a draft for test and it seems real. What do you think about it?

The model won on eBay:

After my holyday, when the real "Knight 2000 Voice Car" arrive to my home, I will print the box in scale 1:1.

And now, the same box with my 1/24 K.I.T.T.:

Ah, thanks for that blast from the past. I still have my KR car though the voice module doesn't work anymore.

You wouldn't happen to have a shot of the bottom of the box do you? I remember it showing the KR stunt set and possibly another toy on the bottom of the box.

Where did you get the graphics to print that out on your printer?

I created this layout with my hand, using only these samples.

I have not a shot of the bottom of the box, but I think you have right: there are the advertisement of two other Kenner toys. I will correct in the next release.
When I have finished the file, if you want, I can give you the file in high resolution.

I have created a new back side for the box, inserting new pictures and using some advertisement about other Kenner products.

Here the result:

Tomorrow I will continue and I will perfect the final result.
