The '''Toad Express''' | The '''Toad Express''' is a pink plane owned by [[Princess Peach|Peach]], [[Mario]], [[Toadsworth]], and [[Toad (species)|some Toads]]. They used this plane to fly to [[Isle Delfino]] in ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]''. The plane landed abruptly at [[Delfino Airstrip]] as a crater filled with strange [[goop]] covered most of the runway and came to a screeching stop, causing Mario, Peach, and Toadsworth to jumble around inside. | ||
In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'' and its [[Nintendo 3DS|3DS]] remake, ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions]]'', Peach again uses this plane to get to the [[Beanbean Kingdom]]; however, when she arrives at the [[Beanbean International Airport]], it is congested by [[Piranha Plant]]s and the [[Mom Piranha]], preventing the plane from landing. Mario and [[Luigi]] got rid of the Piranhas so the Toad Express could safely land. After the player beats the game, the plane is used by Mario, Luigi, Peach, Toadsworth and [[Bowser]] to go back to the [[Mushroom Kingdom]] (although Bowser was dropped to his castle mid-flight inside a giant present given by [[Prince Peasley]]). | |||
It makes a cameo in ''[[Mario Tennis: Power Tour]]'', bringing [[Clay]] and [[Ace]] to the Mushroom Kingdom. | |||
== | ==Appearance== | ||
Inside of the plane there appear to be four (possibly five, depending on the arrangement) [[Mushroom]]-themed seats. There are moderately large windows with elaborate curtains, many fancy details, and a stunning ceiling that is painted (or is possibly a lamp) bright blue with yellow stars and white clouds. | |||

==Trivia== | ==Trivia== | ||
*The | *The design of the Toad Express used in ''Super Mario Sunshine'' appears to be based on certain real-world flying boats and utility aircraft like the Ukrainian {{wp|Antonov An-72}} and the American {{wp|Consolidated PBY-5 Catalina}}; however, in ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga'', the jet takes on an appearance of a cartoony airliner, which, although not specified, seems to be heavily based on the {{wp|Boeing 747}}. One inaccuracy on the An-72/PBY iteration of the Toad Express is that the aircraft is portrayed as a taildragger, while the real aircraft is a tricycle gear aircraft. | ||
*In the tourist guide to Isle Delfino under the Delfino Airstrip section, there is an airplane that looks like the Toad Express, but a blue paint job is shown. | |||
*In the cutscenes of ''Super Mario Sunshine'', the Toad Express has a pink body, white underside and red on the tips of its engines. However, in gameplay, the red highlights are missing. | |||
