Hey guys, I've uploaded an article about the 12 Charger (Windcharger) and 15 Gong (Brawn) model kit released by Takara and Seven in Japan back in the 80s. The kit features Windcharger in black and red looking an awful lot like KITT from Knight Rider and even more crazy, a black/red Brawn that transforms like Bumblebee with a Bumblebee head! www.tf-1.com/articles/jtf_frame.php?art=windbrawnkitThe article is about the second release of the set. The first set had inverse colours. I've seen the pics floating around before and hope someone can post them up in the thread. I will be adding artwork to the article very shortly. All the best Maz

Um, well, it doesn't look any more like KITT than a Windcharger painted black. But I gotta admit, the black paintjob with the red strip in front is quite evocative.
I kinda wonder why nobody's done a dojin with KITT being made into a TF. Same time period, and I bet Michael Knight and Spike would get along great!
