7051 Tripod Invader is an Alien Conquest set released in May 2011. It includes 165 pieces and is intended for children ages seven through fourteen.
Description[edit | edit source]
Tripod: The tripod consists of two main sections, the legs and the upper area, both of which are joined together by a midsection. The upper area features a circular cockpit, and a prison pod mounted on its back. The cockpit is surrounded by an opening and closing glass, that can be lifted up so that a minifigure can be placed inside. The entire upper area of the vehicle can separate from the legs to become an escape pod. The mid-section connects the cockpit and the legs, and features a poseable gun.
Notes[edit | edit source]

- The Tripod is the focus of an Alien Conquest online game in which you are attacking the tripods with the ADU Jet-Copter.
- The Tripod has a prison pod in his back where you can place civilan minifigures.
