Funko POP! Disney Cars 1789 Mater With Jetpack

Shift into high gear with this POP! Disney No. 1789 figurine featuring Martin, the endearing breakdown truck from the Disney and Pixar Cars universe. Designed by Funko, this special edition depicts Flash McQueen’s best friend kitted out with the powerful spy jet-pack seen in Cars 2.

Martin retains his characteristic appearance as an old, rusty recovery truck. His brown bodywork features various shades reminiscent of weathered metal, whilst his blue-green doors recall the colour he used to have before years of hard work and exposure to the elements. His missing bonnet, mismatched headlights and prominent teeth complete his instantly recognisable look.

The figure also features his professional equipment, including a rear tipper body, a tow arm and a hook. These elements reflect his work in Radiator Springs, where he runs the Tow Mater Towing & Salvage service.

This version is distinguished above all by the two thrusters fitted behind his cab. The system temporarily transforms the tow truck into an extremely fast vehicle, capable of keeping up with racing cars and extricating himself from dangerous situations. The thrusters and their propulsion effects lend a particularly dynamic dimension to Martin’s usually slow and clumsy silhouette.

The jet pack is a direct reference to his international adventures in *Cars 2*. Mistaken for a secret agent, Martin is given several sophisticated gadgets, including thrusters concealed at the rear of his vehicle. He uses them, in particular, to race through London with Flash McQueen in tow. Pixar presents the second film as an international adventure in which the two friends leave Radiator Springs for the World Grand Prix, whilst an official Disney video shows Martin taking part in a race using his spy rocket kit.

Made from vinyl, this figurine stands approximately 6.6 cm tall. It comes in an illustrated window box bearing the number 1789 and can be paired with the POP! Sayings Flash McQueen ‘Ka-Chow!’ from the same series.
