Jet Pack Buzz Lightyear
Why Jet Pack Buzz Lightyear Took Off in 2010
In 2010, Jet Pack Buzz Lightyear by Mattel UK blasted off as one of the most in-demand toys of the season. Inspired by the smash-hit Toy Story franchise, this action-packed figure was aimed at children aged 4 and up and delivered lights, sounds, wings, and full-on space ranger vibes. For young fans, it was the ultimate way to bring Buzz’s adventures into the real world.
Buzz came with a working jet pack that lit up and made blasting sounds, plus iconic catchphrases like “To infinity and beyond!” The wings popped out with the press of a button, giving kids the thrill of launching him into action. Durable and fully poseable, this figure was perfect for both display and active play.
Bring Toy Story Action to Life
Jet Pack Buzz Lightyear was designed with authenticity in mind—from his purple-and-green suit to his laser-blasting arm. The detailed sculpting and voice clips made him feel straight out of the movie, while his motorised jet pack added wow factor that went beyond standard action figures.
Parents appreciated the toy’s quality and recognisability, while kids loved reenacting their favourite Toy Story scenes—or inventing brand new ones. Whether Buzz was battling Zurg or exploring the living room galaxy, this toy made every adventure feel epic.
