Okay cool. I.. hmm.. this figure has some serious QC issues i have not seen in a TF in a looong while. The arms pretty much refuse to stay on the ball joint, and the upper arm mushroom peg on the left arm of mine was malformed to the point that if i turned it, it would push itself out.

And like, the figure otherwise feel extremely premium. Love the smooth mechanism of the legs, and the engineering is mostly pretty dang good for such a standard transformation. The shoulders are the weakest point and its such a shame cuz i legit like this take on the usual carbot.

Also right out of the box the roof of the car is hella scuffed up, again, this is a CAD$70 toy... its really disappointing to see these kinds of issues *literally* marring a good figure. The transformation may not be mind blowing but it does mix things up especially with the legs.

I genuinely like that there are dedicated joints for being able to tilt the car doors in bot mode, very good! But also, the bot torso is extremely flat. It's very much a dude wearing the hood of the car as a chestplate, but in a boring way :/ and i get it, it has to highlight the iconic car.

We also gotta talk about about the lights and sounds function. Its clear that would bump up the price even further, but it feels like detriment. It takes up so much space in the hood that theres not much way to beef up the torso. And the kicker is that batteries aren't even included.

Okay so some good things Agent Knight has going for him are his accessories. Two guns that peg under the car in alt mode, good, we like that. Also he has a sclupted KITT-Municator, which is cool, but why is it removable? Are there other figures that can use it??
