Knight Rider K.I.T.T. 1/8 Build
Fanhome, a subsidiary of De Agostini Publishing, works with pop culture licenses to generate build-up models from many fandoms from the MCU to Star Wars. In 2022, in recognition of the 40th Anniversary of Knight Rider, Fanhome premiered and released the series subscription build-up of K.I.T.T. -- one of the most famous cars in television history. Of course, you know we had to be "lone crusaders" and be a part of this iconic build! The entire subscription has 110 issues and will take about two years. You can follow our progress below.
