About those:

TKR Action Packs were released for Dante and Beast in 97/98. Kat, Plato, Domino, and KRO were also planned and even got so far as the Prototype and early pictures stages, but they never made it to market.

Here's a website about them. http://www.teamknightrider.com/mattel/mattel.html

Question. To anybody else does the TKR toys kinda remind you of the M.A.SK toys? You know the cartoon with the cars that you change into something else.

Yeah, they did kinda remind me of M.A.S.K. (or Mobile Armored Squadron Kommand (spelled wrong on purpose)). When I was little I had the Matt Trakker Camaro and customized it to look like Kitt the best I could. :)

I was 6... I smeared it over with a magic marker, leaving a bit of red for the scanner. :D

I've got a two of each of the TKR toys off of eBay when I was in college.

I watched a special early this morning on TLC about this car designer who modifies street cars for car shows. Hotwheels has gotten some of his designs and has actually used them for their cars. Then they got some one to build one of the Hotwheels cars to real life scale. It was weird looking, but it had TWO 510 cubic inch engines in the car giving it 1800 horse power. I'm not exactly the name of the show or who he was, but I just thought it was interesting to mention since were talking about Hotwheels.
