Let's go over some of your most frequently asked questions about the TOMY+ 1:10 K.I.T.T. from Knight Rider™ die-cast replica.
WILL THE REPLICA SPEAK WITH THE VOICE OF WILLIAM DANIELS?
Yes, K.I.T.T. will respond in the voice of William Daniels, with multiple lines from season 4 of Knight Rider™.
WILL THE REAR VIEW MIRROR BE REMOVED FROM THE FINAL VERSION?
Yes, the rear view mirror will be removed from the final version. It was originally included in our prototype because our designers were referencing the actual SPM K.I.T.T. that was at the Volo Car Museum, but we will be removing it in the final version based on feedback from fans.
HOW DOES VOICE RECOGNITION WORK?
The replica’s voice recognition software will activate when you say “K.I.T.T.”. The responses will vary depending on the length of your question, and are randomized.
DOES IT HAVE SOUND EFFECTS?
Yes, it has sound effects in addition to lines from the show. The scanner will make the same "woosh woosh" sound effect as heard in the show. While sound effects are still being finalized, they will include the scanner, different computer sounds, transformation noises for Super Pursuit Mode, and air brakes.
