Funny story... I installed the batteries before transformation but kept accidentally pushing the voice activation button. Imagine my surprise when I thought the toy was telling me I was doing it wrong when he said, "Are you sure this is the right way?"
Still believe that there should have been a Michael Knight Headmaster or Targetmaster included Now bring on the General Lee (with Bo and Luke as dual Targetmasters)! Happy Veterans’ Day! Thanks for serving.
@@peace4myheart Careful there; they could potentially make it suck like they did with that jet from Top Gun. Worst case, they reuse the Combiner Wars Alpha Bravo/Blades/Vortex//Unite Warriors Vortex (four blades)/TFSS Spinister/Lunaclub/Moonheart/Stormclash/Skyburst mold...
@@PatriotPrimeReviewscan you imagine if they were able to make him convert into Super Pursuit mode and transform. That would be a dream come true. I wonder how difficult that is since we’ve never gotten any toy that can go into Super Pursuit Mode. Only ever always in Super Pursuit mode do we ever get.
I love the detail on the scanner bar. The actual show scanner bar bulbs light up and fade as the next bulb lights up, and this one does a reasonable simulation of that. I'm sure it would have been easier/cheaper to do a straight on off LED chaser strip, so I really appreciate this detail
They can call him "Agent Knight" all they want. His name is Kitt. Solid figure, and I almost bought one. It's a bit nit-picky, but I chose not to since he isn't in scale with my collection. I get why they went with the larger scale, but I would've preferred him fitting in as a deluxe, like gigawatt
I'm loving this bot... but the jeans, man! I don't know if I can handle the jeans. There's something ridiculous about bots with built in clothes, like Wheelie or Wildwheel having built in hats.
I'm really digging the collab bots. They're slowly filling out my childhood. What's next, A team van? Airwolf? Oooo what if we jump to the 90s with Viper or even the Seaquest sub?
The 1982 Trans-Am is my Dream car. That fantasy of having whatever car you want? Keep your DMC Delorian and Lambo. I just want my Factory Fresh Trans-Am.
I just got this guy a few days ago! It was on Amazon preorder since May or June (it's November ow for you future readers lol). Anyway he's cool but mine drops his ball joint arm sometimes. I also wish he was a deluxe size, to scale better with Giggawatt and the Jurassic Park ones. A-Team van yes make that voyager, but not this. I do like the electronics, though, and actually had batteries that fit from Dollar Tree for him.
got mine lest friday (15th) and i have to say he is an AWESOME figure!!! i was not expecting him to be has big as he is. i like how you can have different configurations for his door wings. you can actually configure them to where they are straight down. now we need a K.A.R.R. version and a repaint remold of Prime or Motormaster for the his mobile base truck =) then a repaint of Motormaster for Goliath. man now that i think of it this could be its own line lol great review as always!!!
@@PatriotPrimeReviews well they will have a sale with me =) need a Goliath and mobile command truck cross overs too hehehe this could be its own mini subline.
Normally transparent windows don't bother me much, especially if the interior has some cool robotic Cybertronian designs inside, but they probably should have made these more opaque. The battery section does mimic the real car if I recall but it's slightly bigger. But man, it looks so cool. I kinda want it.
Great video PPR! I have a pair of these on order from Amazon. I will most likely get the Toyhax for it. As for batteries, eBay has some vendors selling rechargeable LR44 batteries with a charger. I'm thinking about getting one of those kits, just so I can avoid the possibility of future Alkaline battery leakage. I predict that Hasbro might repaint this figure as KARR with a yellow scanner, gray stripes, yellow visor, and tan "chaps"/Jeans. Also with a voice theme for KARR. Who knows? We might even see the FLAG semi at some point? We will have to see.
I wouldn't mind clear windows if they had another piece of plastics to cover up the robot bits. Basically the clear as overlays or like the alternators have the interiors be actual car bits, but I guess that would blow the budget.
I've really been out of the Loop for the sake of my Wallet didn't know this was coming, wish we could get the Duke Boys Transformer but people would cry about that.
That's so cool, you got a crotch with yours. lol. But I do love this figure, I didn't think I would like it this much, I haven't seen the show in 30 years, but damn it, it got me excited. Great review as always, can't wait for the Toyhax version!
I can’t believe Hasbro is so slow to get figures out that tie into other properties. This is wonderful, but I want me some Babylon 5 and StarCraft toys.
That is a nice Transformer. I was on the fence after how crappy the Top Gun figure was. I think if you polished it, it would look nicer and resist fingerprints better.
The theme song would sound horrible thorugh a tiny mono speaker and with the heavy compression to fit it on a cheap sound chhip - better by far to just stick to the voice clips that are supposed to sound digitized anyway. There is supposed to be a mode where the scanner bar just keeps going for a couple oof minutes too, if you hold the buttin down for a while I think?
I love having any TF Trans Am, but having one of kit is awesome! However, I disagree with you on a few things. I find that the sound pack is far, far too obtrusive. the sound and light effects are not worth the gross deformation of Kitt's otherwise svelte vehicular lines. I don't like battery gimmicks as it is, and I wish Hasbro just hadn't bothered. If they wanted to make just a light up scanner, that could have used a single, easier-to-hide battery. Also, the red tail lights drive me nuts. I'm okay with the windows - I grew up with Prowl and Sideswipe, so robot kibble is fine for me. But the tail lights should be BLACK. Other than that, though, and some loose hips, it's a nice figure.
I bought one from amazon came last week. I returned the box came damage amazon don't care how the ship the stuff I'm in box collector. so I have another order thru big bad toys and best buy I'll keep the best one, I'll return the other one.
Know what you mean about the name. I'm a real sucker for these collab bots but I have a similar complaint with this one to the turtle van whose name, if it has one, has utterly escaped me although to be fair on that case the van isn't an actual character so much as KITT which leads me on to the actual complaint and no doubt the reason why it's got a separate name. What, one might ask, is a turtle van without the turtles much like what is KITT without David Hasselhoff aka Agent Knight? I happen to have the Xpanse X-Men Blackbird crossover which did indeed include a couple mini-figures being Wolverine and Sabretooth so it's not like it can't be done however in this case they really cheaped out over those figures so while Sabretooth is pretty passable in my set Wolverine is indeed fairly far from it sadly. Guy can barely even stand unaided and the less said about the 'paintwork' if you can call it that... Anyway. The main complaint you had being that the inside is filled with visible kibble is another thing those two having no expectation of ever needing enter the vehicle they come with but the idea this is supposedly KITT loses something I feel if you take that away just like the turtle van as if they're meant to be a separate entity that doesn't really make any sense without at least acknowledging that much for me at least. It was sitting on Amazon for ages after it sold out practically everywhere else somehow so I came pretty close but no cigar.
This is awesome but also a wasted opportunity. I've never seen a better candidate to be a headmaster. Michael could have ridden inside and transformed into the head.

😆 🤣 😂
The hidden headlights blew me away. Wasn’t expecting that detail. Great review.
Thanks
Hey just wanted to say thank you for your service brother roll out!!!!
Hooah!!!
Thank you.
@@PatriotPrimeReviewsyes happy Veteran's Day! Thank you for your service!
Still believe that there should have been a Michael Knight Headmaster or Targetmaster included
Now bring on the General Lee (with Bo and Luke as dual Targetmasters)!
Happy Veterans’ Day! Thanks for serving.
Agent knight
Ectotron
Gigawatt
All we need now is Airwolf and StreetHawk to make the ultimate 80's TV combiner 😂
We need an A-team van !!!!
I want Airwolf. We already have enough cars and vans.
@@peace4myheart Careful there; they could potentially make it suck like they did with that jet from Top Gun. Worst case, they reuse the Combiner Wars Alpha Bravo/Blades/Vortex//Unite Warriors Vortex (four blades)/TFSS Spinister/Lunaclub/Moonheart/Stormclash/Skyburst mold...
Now if I could get a Decepticon KARR.
We need one with Super Pursuit Mode.
@@PatriotPrimeReviews Yeah, but original KARR was voiced by Peter Cullen. Be a cool voice cameo.
@@PatriotPrimeReviewscan you imagine if they were able to make him convert into Super Pursuit mode and transform. That would be a dream come true.

Hold the button down, and you’ll have the sensor line going without the sound.
I don’t know how long it goes for though.
Thanks, I was just gonna ask about this.

I love this guy! I mean the robot, but you're pretty okay too Patriot Prime. I hope we get Airwolf. :D
Airwolf would be amazing
Just got my Agent Knight in, Great looking bot! Now we need Bandit's Trans-Am!
Also, I'm just calling this guy "KITT", no need to reinvent the bot!
6:02 There is an additional feature where if you compress the button for a few seconds, the lightbar will stay activated without sound.
They can call him "Agent Knight" all they want. His name is Kitt. Solid figure, and I almost bought one. It's a bit nit-picky, but I chose not to since he isn't in scale with my collection. I get why they went with the larger scale, but I would've preferred him fitting in as a deluxe, like gigawatt
Got this guy in the mail last week, but haven't opened it yet. Didn't know about the batteries so thanks for the hot tip!
Glad i could help.
I'm loving this bot... but the jeans, man! I don't know if I can handle the jeans. There's something ridiculous about bots with built in clothes, like Wheelie or Wildwheel having built in hats.
Thanks for the review, but more importantly, thank you very much for your service!
Thank you, Hooah!
Got him Friday, order the Toyhax, via your promo code, and loving the nostalgia, A-Team needs to happen.
The Roof and windshield can peg into the robot back if you squeeze past the doors.
Have a good Veterans Day Patriot Prime.
Good to know, thank you.
Incredible figure, one of the best crossovers yet!
I'm really digging the collab bots. They're slowly filling out my childhood. What's next, A team van? Airwolf? Oooo what if we jump to the 90s with Viper or even the Seaquest sub?
I just received him 2 days ago and he is fantastic. I’m excited to have him 😎
The 1982 Trans-Am is my Dream car. That fantasy of having whatever car you want? Keep your DMC Delorian and Lambo. I just want my Factory Fresh Trans-Am.
I just remembered that I wish this was deluxe size so it could fit inside Optimus Prime's trailer.
That would have been cool to help relive the show.
That would've been awesome

Rumor has it that there will be a K.A.R.R. repaint.
@@PatriotPrimeReviews well they will have a sale with me =) need a Goliath and mobile command truck cross overs too hehehe this could be its own mini subline.
I didn't even know It had an electronic gimmick!

Hold the voice activation button down to activate a constant light wave without sound. Hit the button again to stop it.
Awesome review brother!
Thanks so much.
I got him and all Toyhaxed up. He looks glorious!!!
Can't wait to get mine Haxed
I sincerely hope this Trans Am licensed figure leads us to a long overdue deluxe class Windcharger.🙏

I’d like to see KARR too!
I want one i would love to get an Airwolf transformer.
You and me both.
I wouldn't mind clear windows if they had another piece of plastics to cover up the robot bits. Basically the clear as overlays or like the alternators have the interiors be actual car bits, but I guess that would blow the budget.
I hear ya, I'd like that too!
It would be nice to have a Transformer that looks like Squad 51 from Emergency & the police car Adam-12.
I've really been out of the Loop for the sake of my Wallet didn't know this was coming, wish we could get the Duke Boys Transformer but people would cry about that.
Love it. Can you do the TMNT collab with Toy Hax upgrade please? Thank you
Unfortunately, I don't have that figure....yet.
Still waiting for mine.
That's so cool, you got a crotch with yours. lol. But I do love this figure, I didn't think I would like it this much, I haven't seen the show in 30 years, but damn it, it got me excited. Great review as always, can't wait for the Toyhax version!
Another great review😎👍🏼. So cool you have your own tech spec, do you have a link to check it out?
I'll I have is a picture I posted here.
ruclips.net/channel/UCvTEl-XHO9BY3_I1Zssfmjgcommunity?lb=UgkxFuAENHdjy6IHHoUq5oWZGFN40HaY-g21
It's more like a Prowl transformation than siege Sideswipe's transformation.
Just got mine in today… By any chance is your KITT body panels & hood dull compared to the roof which is glossy black?
A little
They should do Christine Decepticon crossover
Where did you get the shirt? It awesome
I can’t believe Hasbro is so slow to get figures out that tie into other properties. This is wonderful, but I want me some Babylon 5 and StarCraft toys.
If you hold the activation button down the light effects stay on.
Awesome.
Thanks for the info.
That is a nice Transformer. I was on the fence after how crappy the Top Gun figure was. I think if you polished it, it would look nicer and resist fingerprints better.
I decided to rename this figure: KITTbasher, I think it's a greater name then his official name of Agent Knight. lol
Airwolf next hasbro

I know right
