YouTube user fxfranz has uploaded a video review of the DOTM Human Alliance Basic Drag Strip with Master Disaster. The figure retains G1 Drag Strip's alt mode and color scheme, and comes with a translucent holographic driver. Check out his review below.

Wow i just fell a sleep four times in 15 minutes

.

watching somebody hold dragstrip you can realy tell he is one of those figures thats 95% impossible to get a good pose out of because of all the crap hanging around him.

Im on the fence with him even though he could sit happily with his brothers Deadend and Breakdown he's running poll position for the worst basics figure in robot mode in the line,

But it is movieverse Dragstrip i will end up getting him for that alone.

Wow. Trying to pose this guy doesn't look like much fun. What continuity does this guy fit into? Didn't see him him DOTM, but I can see how F1 race car driver Fernando Alonso could be lured into a partnership with this guy.

Though he looks a little loose... looks good in all three modes — and I like the homage to the skyboom shield and of course, G1 Drag Strip. It's not perfect, but a lot of value for a little scout figure. I think I'm going to pick him up.

Where have there been sightings of this figure, other than online stores?

Don't care, he still looks badass, and so far, Ive got two of the human alliance basics. Backfire, and whirl, and both are awesome figures, so this guy's a must.

I don't know why he's complaining about gaps and 'weight' (who cares about weight unless it feels like styrofoam). Looks great to me, aside from the sideways-bending elbows. I can see how the untabbing shoulders would be annoying, but I mostly just transform and display my TFs, so it will be a minor annoyance.

Sure, the weapon mode is kinda lame but I never really expect triple changers to have 3 good modes anyway. The bot mode looks cool and the car mode looks amazing. I will probably pick up a repaint because I don't collect Stunticons. Too many of them out there for me to afford. :lol:

You can always go to robotkingdom.com and pick up some accessory weapons to add. I'm going to do that with my Voyager OP and maybe some of the others too. I don't have any human alliance figures yet. I've got a long way to go but I don't think I'm going to be one of those 1,000 figure guys.
