Picked myself up one today after a friend of mine told me that he had seen it in the store.

Blinding little thing. Had a lot of fun with it. The car talks and the voice of KITT is surprisingly almost spot on too, I don't think it's Daniels voice but I can't make my mind up yet...guess that goes to show how close it is to the original, if it is.

It also comes with a scanner light that glides back and forth with NO blinking unlike the 1:18 scale model whose light did and it has a scanner sound effect too.

The fog lights light up when the car moves along.

There is a turbo boost feature on it that I haven't figured out to activate yet.

If anyone wants one, I recommend getting one.

I was actually surprised Argos would sell something like this, I was even more surprised that Hitari would make one.

I guess Knight Rider is making a good comeback.

I am to this day ticked off that you can get the General Lee RC car which is the same scale and is from the same manufacturer of the KITT RC in America, but NOT KITT :x . I would sell my soul, along with my brother's to get this KITT in the US :wink: .

What are you taking about SKAV ??? :lol: EVERYONE knows that toy came out a few months ago if I remember and some Australian website dickeys or something had them for $40 each delivered AIR MAIL to the US 8)

And now that I think of it,I should have gotten more then one cause everyone that comes over to my place likes to play with it. :roll:

But boy is it big :shock: Looks exactly like my Kitt replica with 6 fogs and tinted windows,Even the tire tread matches. Hmmmmmmm,I wonder where they got the idea for that car. LOL 8)

Only thing wrong with it are the wheel spokes again which need to be filled in with black paint like the 1:18 scale die cast.

Does anyone know what this cost in American currency?

I have also heard it is extremly expensive to ship something overseas with the special taxes on it or something of that nature. I was wondering if I gave someone the money if they would be willing to purchase it for me and send it over to the states as a gift? i guess I would not have to pay the special taxes then...?
