Collaborative Agent Knight transforms from a Voyager-sized robot to a licensed General Motors custom Pontiac Firebird Trans Am, representing KITT from the television series Knight Rider. The car mode slightly differs from KITT's onscreen appearances: it has the Pontiac logo on the hubcaps, the tail lights are red instead of black, and the rear license plate is not one of those used in the series but instead is the Knight Industries chess piece logo. The headlights can be flipped up or down.
In robot mode, Agent Knight has design elements to resemble David Hasselhoff's portrayal of Michael Knight, including the face sculpt, the visor resembling large sunglasses, "blue jeans" on the legs, and Michael's wristwatch communicator for speaking with KITT. His forehead also features KITT's car-dashboard speech indicator light (the red rectangle from the first season, not the rising-volume indicator from later seasons).
Agent Knight comes with two blasters which can be stored in car mode by tabbing into rectangular holes on the robot mode's shins on the underside of the car.
The first Collaborative toy with electronics, Agent Knight includes both sound clips and an animated scrolling light on the front sensor. Unfortunately, the space needed for the electronics means there's a bit of low-hanging chonk under the front bumper region not present on the actual car.
This figure was revealed at San Diego Comic-Con 2024, with preorders going up the following week.

Notes

  • This isn't Knight Rider's first foray into transforming robot toys; KITT was previously immortalized in plastic as part of Ertl's Pow-R-Trons line using a Nissan Fairlady 300ZX mold that was also used by Estrela's Brazilian Transformers toyline as Turbo.

Foreign names

  • Japanese: Agent Knight (エージェントナイト Ējento Naito)
