And whilst it'd be nice for Knight to be a Knight Rider crossover, that's too obvious a name, so it's a Batman crossover instead. Transforming Batmobile? I don't know... Knight Rider hasn't done anything particularly relevant in years. There's no revival, there's no surge in fandom, nothing of note to promote, or just to make it attractive for someone to pursue the license. But Batman? A true Batmobile TF? That has been on so many want lists for decades. Just imagine if one of these really is a Knight Rider crossover but it's not classic KITT but the pick-up truck from KNIGHT RIDER 2000. -Ralph |

If it's a Batmobile does that mean Martin has to buy it?

A Knightrider TF would be pretty cool. |

If it's not a reworking of the Earthrise Sideswipe mold I'll be disappointed.

If the Knightrider car is as accurate as Ecto-1 and the BTTF Delorean, that's going to be one essential purchase.

Knight Rider crossover? Is anyone else hoping for an update - or, dare I say reissue - of the 80s toy?

All they need to do to get a Knight Rider crossover is swap the colours of the 1986 Battlechargers around and put a little red sticker on black Runamuck's engine. As a bonus, white Runabout would be a crossover with The Spy Who Loved Me. I expect someone at Hasbro thought about making the Lotus Esprit white and the Pontiac Firebird black at the time these two came out but chickened out for trademark reasons.   Martin |

I'm in.

Hmmm, I'm not sure I want TFs to exist in the Knight Rider universe. Takes away KITT's specialness if there are lots of other autonomous talking vehicles.

Just imagine it got a retool where you had a wee Michael which was KITT's Titan Master.
But this is still very nice. May be the first Crossover I pay full price for.

A Knightrider TF would be pretty cool. We already sort of have one. There is a Charge-A-Tron Knight Rider. |
