1:18 scale Die Cast KITT in Super Pursuit Mode

[KNIGHT RAIDER]

In addition to the anticipation of a 1:18 scale die cast KARR, I hope to see a die cast of KITT in his Super Pursuit Mode configuration. This die cast version could be interchangeable, go from the standard design to SPM, almost like a transformer. I could picture the spoiler panels popping out when you flip a switch underneath the toy, similiar to the die cast De Lorean time machine, where the wheels rotate in and out.

Ah, for a second there I was hoping the headline was an announcement that it was coming out. I think we'd all love to see an SPM K.I.T.T. model as well as a Convertible Mode one. If they do ever release one, it will most likely not be accurate. First, they have to design a 3rd/4th season dashboard, and second they might as well make a 4th season KITT.

Only problem with that is that the current model's nose most resembles the 4th season KITT. My point is that since the 1/18th model is more like a hybrid rather than any single particular season, any future models would most likely be hybrids as well. Don't get me wrong though, I don't care if they kept those amber lenses in there if it means we could get a SPM KITT model!

It's just a shame that since the current 1/18th model is a hybrid that it prevents Ertl and Aoshima from making a season 2, 3, and 4 KITT a little bit. Or at least if they got it right on other versions, then at least one of the seasons would remain inaccurate.

Yeah, your right. A SPM or convertable car would more than likely be modified versions of the one that is already out.

[Skav]

from a business standpoint, that'd be easy for them then. they know the fans want one and they'd probably re-mold what we already have with the additional spm pop outs.

Quite frankly, I don't think ERTL will be making a transforming SPM KITT diecast. There are just too many parts that pop out, unlike the BTTF DeLorean that only transforms the tires (and its from Sunstar, not ERTL). A fixed SPM would be more feasible and I would be more than happy to purchase one if it will ever be marketed (even if it still has amber fog lights)

I don't think Ertl will make one either, but I sure wish they would. If they did tho, it would be much more expensive I would guess. But even then, I will gladly sell both my nutts for one.......well...maybe just one.

EEWWW!....one nutt for one toy?....that sounds just so wrong!

How about Custom KITT 1:18 model I'd like to see 1:18 scale FLAG semitruck that would carry this 1:18 KITT model in it's trailer

Don't get me wrong, guys. I highly doubt that Ertl or Aoshima would ever produce a Super Pursuit Mode or Convertible Mode model either. It's just wishful hypothetical thinking on my part. I believe if a legitamate model of the SPM or CM model is ever produced; it'll be produced by an entirely different company specializing in only those specific models. Most companies like to use existing molds and recycle them into new designs/characters whenever possible. Action figures are a great example of this.

The custom kitt can be done ,but you would need to fabricate the custom spoilers and get some ferrari rims and a custom flames decal kit
,I already made a custom kitt myself on a 1/25 scale size and I am still in the middle of building a trailer for the 1/18 kitt and theres so much more to do down the road! ....and the 3/4th season dash is still in the plans for 1/18 scale size kitt! ...not to mention a newer style pods! ....guess I got my work cut out for me?....
