Drag Strip (DOTM)

The name or term "Drag Strip" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Drag Strip (disambiguation).

Drag Strip is a Decepticon from the Dark of the Moon portion of the live-action film series continuity family.

Much as Soundwave has cultivated human allies in secret during his time on Earth, Drag Strip has taken pains to secure one of his own. He considers the recruitment of a human to take care of the driving, no matter how loathsome the creatures might be, is a perfect way to free up his own processor time to spend devising wicked plots against the Autobots - and there's nothing this cruel schemer likes better.

Of course, considering Master Disaster's somewhat...questionable appearance, Drag Strip may have decided he's already worn out his welcome.

Toys

Dark of the Moon

• Master Disaster / Decepticon Drag Strip (Human Alliance Basic, 2011)
  • Japanese ID number: DD12
  • Accessories: Right and left blade weapons

Part of the third wave of Dark of the Moon Human Alliance Triple Changer figures, Drag Strip has two different alternate modes. He can transform into an undersized Indy-style race car or a shield that can be carried by any other 5mm-compatible toy. His weapons are two C joint-compatible blades that make up part of his shield mode, as well as mounting on his air dam in vehicle and robot modes. His human partner figure, Master Disaster, can be seated in his cockpit in vehicle mode, but unusually for a Human Alliance Basic cannot usefully sit in his weapon mode. Of course, who would want to sit in a shield?
