The Alien Mosquitoid is a Galaxy Squad minifigure released in 2012. It appears in the sets 70701 Swarm Interceptor, 70702 Warp Stinger, and 70705 Bug Obliterator.
Description[edit | edit source]
The Alien Mosquitoid is mainly olive green with lighter markings. It has a dark red diamond shape in the centre of its torso and hands of the same colour. Printing of several layers of an exoskeleton are also present on both the torso and legs. The edge of each layer is tipped in a light beige colour. This colour also lines the knee printing and the Mosquitoid's brow, above the compound eyes.
Transparent light green wings with a hex-pattern stick out from each side. The are part of a single piece that is located around the neck of the minifigure. The head is a completely new mould. It has large compound eyes that each have, instead of printing, many miniscule circular depressions depicting the individual eyes. Above these is a forehead that juts out and has a crease in the middle. The face also sports a spear-like proboscis.
Background[edit | edit source]
Alien Mosquitoids are one of the three races of insectoid aliens in the Planet Selva Galaxy. Their race is one of three main antagonist species in the theme and their plan is to turn each planet into a hive, eliminating all human civilizations and life. They use cocoons as capture pods, which appear in most Galaxy Squad sets.
Notes[edit | edit source]
- The Mosquitoid's wings are the same as Beetle's.
