Saucer

The Saucers are the scout and forward transport units, designed to either kidnap and grab hapless victims, or transport the Power Pods of the Martian Menace.

Lore
Often the first sign of the invading Martian Menace is the eerie glow of an approaching saucer—just before a paralyzing beam emerges from its underside to kidnap a hapless victim or to deliver a power pod to facilitate the invasion.
