1/24 Knight Rider Season 3 Prototype K.A.R.R. (Pre-Pain

Description

This is an injection-plastic kit of a science-fiction/anime item.

It’s everybody’s favorite sentient automobile, K.I.T.T.! Ummm, wait a minute…this isn’t K.I.T.T…. Ye gads! It’s K.I.T.T.’s look-alike arch nemesis and kinda-sorta brother, K.A.R.R.!! That’s right, it’s Knight Industries’ highly modified Pontiac Firebird “Knight Automated Roving Robot” (K.A.R.R.), from the seminal series “Knight Rider”–its third season, to be specific.

Aoshima’s newly tooled K.A.R.R. kit features excellent detail and accuracy throughout. The body is prepainted in K.A.R.R.’s characteristic two-tone black and silver, with interior pieces molded in tan, and chassis and suspension parts molded in black. The wheels are smart two-part matte chrome and black assemblies, and darkly tinted clear windows are provided (the clear front windshield features prepainted black bordering). The pop-up headlights are movable. The interior is accurately detailed with all the whiz-bang computers and gizmology seen in the show, and includes decals to render some of the panel faces. A great kit of K.A.R.R.! (Despite what the photo above suggests, this kit does not include an LED scanner array. The scanner unit is available separately, though–see the link below!)
