http://www.thestrong.org/online-collect ... 2/103.1794" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; here is a link to the actual transformers it would be a hard find but it's possible to modify him to kitt if you know how to make plastic molding parts witch there's actual sites in how to do that for action figures. This toy though doesn't look all so hot. I'd suggest use the same concept but maybe a few car model's of Kitt to cut to pieces to make hm a transformer. but use this toy as a layout design maybe. A good custom action figure ever made and I believe went for 1500 on ebay was the Famous rolling Thunder Optimus prime witch was made from A G.I. Joe Rolling thunder truck. http://www.hisstank.com/gi-joe-news/cus ... rmer-9679/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; so yeah if you want to make a good kitt transformer maybe buy a few kitt models and cut and slice your parts away. :D

Its hard work if you do it your self,also I thought Runamuks Brother Runabout was better cuz hes Black already.

You can always go to TFW2005 and ask in the Radicon custom section,maybe someone there can make one for ya :)

http://www.tfw2005.com/resources/1986-d ... about-229/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; yes he would make a better one but I'd say start from scratch with a few kitt car toy models and build one from there. or ask the pro's from the site as he mentioned. people on http://www.seibertron.com/vsd/character/wheeljack/5091/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; I think there's guys on here that also does custom transformers and oh look wheeljack the mustang transformer. hehe with a few modification he can easily be kitt 2008 mustang.

Back in the day I had every First and second generation transformer and the first generation based on the movie all i have left is the camaro bumble bee and a broken megatron.

That is a very nice drawing. I was thinking of another character, transforming wise that could be good for KITT. How about Hot Rod, that way, KITT's hood would not be split and showing the full scanner in the chest plate. Hot Rod's attitude would not fit KITT because Hot Rod is brash and rushes into things without thinking it out.

Siebertron doesnt sell stuff tho,I mean those post sighting of the figures in the forums.I know of trading forum as well.

Yeah Ebay,they want like 60 bucks or more for him.Im hoping when the movies toys come out,hell be along side them and I get him 9 bucks instead.


Hey HotRod grew up tho,remember he became Rodimus Prime :D
