Of course, with the rise of the new technology called the 3-D printer, things could get very interesting when dedicated fans start producing their own very detailed K.I.T.T.'s.Knight Racer wrote:Worked perfectly,thanks.I'll just use my childlike imagination and pretend that hole is where the parachute pops out from.Too bad we can't send this back to the kid in us from the 80's.We didn't have such great toys back then.Hell,we are getting better kr merchandise now than when the show was on the air.
No, seriously. Just this year, they've been refining the tech to handle new kinds of plastics and even electric conductive plastics. Build it to your heart's delight in virtual space and have one of these print out a realistic version. Who knows what these machines may be capable of in just a few years. After all, NASA (or some equal) is supposedly investing in 3-D printing of edible food. (Compact storage of powder that can be printed into food looking shapes. Well, even in Star Trek, the characters had complaints about synthetic food/drink.)
