Knight Rider ran for four seasons from 1982-1986. David Hasselhoff starred as Michael Knight, a former police detective who had been shot in the face. He is given a new identity thanks to a billionaire with an unusual idea of how to fight crime. Knight is given a prototypical 1982 Pontiac Trans-Am with artificial intelligence and the ability to carry on a conversation. The car is named KITT, short for the Knight Industries Two Thousand because in the eighties anything with the number 2000 in it was futuristic. Together, Michael and KITT went on adventures and helped people the way TV action heores did on these kinds of shows.
Unfortunately, the Hoff could not be hassled into reprising his role for Lego Dimensions. Instead, Michael Knight is voiced by Nick Offerman from Parks and Recreation. But the good news is that William Daniels, the original voice of KITT, actually did reprise his role as the talking car. And let’s face facts, the car was always more important than the guy behind the wheel.
The guy behind the wheel has a skillset appropriate for a detective. Michael Knight can track clues, he has hacking and technology abilities, his devices give him X-ray vision and he is an acrobat. None of those abilities is especially hard to come by which makes Michael a less than essential character. But if you need a tracker, he’s more well-rounded Owen Grady or Shaggy. Plus, check out that hair! (Yes, they gave Lego Hasselhoff Hobbit hair.)
The main selling point of this Fun Pack, for once, is the vehicle. KITT is a talking car who shoots lasers. Having a vehicle that talks makes it a lot more fun than 90% of the other cars, planes and submarines in the game. Naturally, KITT can be upgraded. He’s a car of the future after all. His extended skills list includes electricity, a tow bar, super strength, invulnerability, flight and the ability to blow up silver Lego bricks. See, I told you he was more useful than the guy behind the wheel.
