Skeletron Summer
8 days ago
– Wed, Jul 15, 2026 at 07:46:53 AM
Hello Roboskullers,
We hope you're having an amazing summer! Production of 6" SKELETRON is in full swing and we can almost taste those laser swords coming your way!
Our Skeletron figure has been through a complex engineering and development process and the manufacturing process itself is also more complex than a typical figure. With an absolute focus on quality, the factory will be keeping us updated on the estimated completion date of the run. From there we'll ship to our fulfillment center in the US and then on to all of you! We are awaiting a further update on the 4" Skeletron tooling revisions and are hopeful it will begin production soon after 6" Skeletron. The TOTAL ROBOSKULL book is also exploding with awesomeness, and it's possible we'll see these slide into Q4 of this year for final delivery. Please also note that our BackerKit Pre-order store will close on 7/31.
You have all continued to be absolutely amazing through this extended process and we genuinely cannot thank you enough for the massive support. THANK YOU for making this possible!
IN-STOCK Friday, 7/17 at 12pm Eastern
We've been receiving many requests for the replenish date of 4" Assault Troopers and Retro Zargonauts, and we've got great news—they will be in-stock and available for purchase at Skeletron.com THIS FRIDAY at 12pm Eastern time along with the Skeletron 1:64 scale Ford Mustang by Lionel Racing—the Official Die-cast of NASCAR!
4" Red Shadows ASSAULT TROOPER
3.75" Retro ZARGONAUT/ZARLORD
SKELETRON 66 Timmy Hill NASCAR Cup Series 1:64 Scale Diecast Model
We were also recently in Augusta for JoeFest and it was an awesome time and a total blur! Huge thanks to everyone who came out and made this show possible!
On Saturday morning of the show we made a surprise reveal our next 6" figure, CYBERIA, and the response was phenomenal. This infiltration and cyber operations specialist will be available later this year, so please stay tuned for Cyberia's drop date, and don't sleep on her—she's a killer!
Our factory was able to make an impressive push and air freight a shipment of 6" Assault Troopers directly to Georgia just in time for the show. We sold-out at the show and we know many of you are very excited to acquire this figure. The rest of the figures are complete and coming soon from our factory in China. We will announce the in-stock date just as soon as they are verified here and ready! In the meantime, you can also hunt them down at cool toy stores carrying our line! Current supply is extremely limited, but check out Comic Lair, Ginger Kid Collectibles, Hidden Temple Toys, Midwest Vintage Toys, The Toy Department, Top Dog Comics, & more!
SDCC 2026 with KB Toys!
Presented by Icon Heroes in Booth 4344, SKELETRON will be making a debut appearance at San Diego Comic-Con! Look for KB Toys and find an awesome collection of indie toymakers! This is also the place to pick up that 6" Assault Trooper you're looking for—while supplies last!
That's all for now! We hope you continue to enjoy this beautiful summer!

June Update

Hello Roboskullers,
We've got great news to share—after multiple rounds of tooling revisions, we have now approved 6" Skeletron for production! We are thrilled to have this remaining 6" figure entering into production, and stay tuned for more details as we begin the ending of this long journey!
We've also received photos of an updated 4" Skeletron test shot that is looking good! This 4" Skeletron still requires some revisions, and our factory contact, Dave Proctor, has advised that they are focused on getting this 4" version finalized so that it can also enter into production.

May Skeletron Update
3 months ago
– Sun, May 03, 2026 at 07:02:26 PM
Hello Roboskullers,
Tooling was again revised and the factory completed an updated 6" Skeletron test shot as anticipated. He is looking so good!
This revised test shot resolved nearly all remaining issues. Though we hoped this would be the final revision, the tooling does require an addition adjustment, and so production has not yet commenced. The factory has recently been turning revised test shots for 6" Skeletron at a faster pace, and we expect to receive the final test shot soon.
We were also due to receive a revised 4" Skeletron test shot, but it has not yet been provided. We are continuing our push to receive this and will provide an update when it arrives.
If these are received and can be approved this month, we will be pushing to preserve the current Q3 fulfillment target.
If you'd like to view a "behind-the-scenes" video of this latest 6" Skeletron test shot (courtesy of Dave Proctor), please visit SKELETRON SECRET LAB on Facebook.
Upcoming Events
For those seeking the exclusive Yeti UNMASKED Convention Variant, it will be available at upcoming shows, including the OHIO TOY & COMIC SHOW in West Chester, Ohio on Sunday, May 24th! While SKELETRON will not have a dedicated booth at this very special event, you will find our entire offering there, including this convention variant cardback.
We're also continuing to see our products appear in awesome brick & mortar toy stores- please let your favorite shop know if you'd like to see RED SHADOWS® on display! Retail stores can find more information at SKELETRON.comand you can also find our in-stock products available with $5 flat rate shipping in the US as well as global shipping options.
Thank you! -SKELETRON

Hello Roboskullers,
You'll receive no hoaxes or pranks from us this April Fool's Evening, though we hope you had a fun-filled day with a few laughs.
We've received another revised test shot of 6" Skeletron and he is almost ready for mass production. The factory is making what we hope are the final tweaks right now so that we can commence production in full!
New Factory Test Shot | 6" SKELETRON
The progress continues, and we are headed to the finish line with the 6" Skeletron, which will be followed by the 4" and the hardcover finale. That's all the news we have to report from the factory, and we fully expect to have further progress to report next month.
We recently returned from Toylanta- THANK YOU to everyone who helped make it a crazy fun and memorable event!
SKELETRON will be at the DFW GI JOE & Action Figure Show May 29-31, which will be followed by Joefest June 26-28. Our SKELETRON Crew hopes to see you there!
Armed to the teeth and forged in the fires of warfare, 4” Red Shadows® ASSAULT TROOPERS will deploy on SKELETRON.com this Friday, 4/3 at 12pm Eastern time! With incredible sculpt details, articulation, and accessories, these troopers come fully loaded with all the armaments required to be your ultimate modern 1:18 scale action figures:
These superior soldiers hold ALL their gear, and we hope you'll check them out.
As always, thank you for your continued support!

TOTAL ROBOSKULL Update
5 months ago
– Wed, Mar 04, 2026 at 11:10:32 AM
Hello Roboskullers!
We're currently recovering from a long weekend at Zolocon in Pennsylvania, and WOW- what a show! More on that to come, but first an update:
4" SKELETRON & 6" SKELETRON figures
With Chinese New Year now wrapping up, the status on these figures (both in tooling revision) remains unchanged over the last month. We remain aimed at a Q3 delivery and expect to have additional information for our next updates.
As previously communicated, publication of this book was pushed back so that we could add as much content as possible and include our last releases from the Kickstarter campaign. Originally planned at 96 pages, we expanded to 112 pages—and have now added even more pages! This will be the comprehensive and definitive Roboskull guide! We've been keeping the content under wraps, though as we've recently been asked to reveal some content, here's just a small taste of what you'll find inside:
This book will cover the inspirational history, the development of the Roboskull MKII, the Kickstarter launch, and the reception to the Roboskull MKII upon release. It's chock full of behind-the-scenes development, beautiful illustrations, and stunning photography. Our plan is to ship this book alongside our remaining Skeletron figures in Q3.

We survived Zolocon! Thank you to EVERYONE who made this show exceed our wildest expectations. It was awesome, it was WILD, and it was so much FUN! We invite you to check out more of the Zolocon adventures HERE and HERE on Instagram or on our Facebook page!

We know not everyone is able to attend one of the fun-filled toy shows this year, which is why we're excited to announce that our Retro Yeti & Retro Zargonaut figures will be in-stock and available later this week at SKELETRON.com! Visit our website this Friday, March 6th at 12pm Eastern to pick up these brand-new, totally killer Retro figures! Retro Zargonaut is a 2-in-1 figure that transforms into Zarlord, so be sure to pick up extras for the alien commander and his cult of loyal Zargonauts!
