- Skullitron is a Knight of Iacon from The Last Knight portion of the live-action film series continuity family.
Skullitron is one of the legendary Knights of Iacon and a sworn protector of the Staff of Merlin. The past millennium or so hasn't been kind to him.
His face came off, for example.
Fiction
The Last Knight film
- Voice actor: Frank Welker (English)
 Spoiler warning: Plot details for Transformers: The Last Knight (film) follow. |
Skullitron lay rusting and inactive aboard the Knights' ship deep beneath the Atlantic Ocean. Awakened from his repose by the arrival of Viviane Wembly and Cade Yeager, the disoriented and decomposing Knight violently attempted to defend the Staff of Merlin from the human interlopers, but the arrival of the Transformers Reaction Force and ensuing battle led to the severely damaged Skullitron plunging down a chasm into the ship's bowels. The Last Knight
Toys
The Last Knight
- Skullitron (Deluxe Class, 2017)
- Released as part of the Toys R Us exclusive portion of the Mission to Cybertron promotion in the The Last Knight line, Skullitron is a slight retool of Steelbane, giving the mold a new, decomposing skull face and a deco designed to evoke oxidised copper.
- Unfortunately, Skullitron still suffers from the same loose ball joints, if not even to a more severe degree, as Steelbane.
Notes
- None of the Knights in the film are named; this wiki assumes based on the facial similarity to the toy that the first Knight to awaken is Skullitron
- Skullitron's own box is vague on his allegiance; his name and appearance certainly seem evocative of an evil Decepticon, and the pattern on the back of his box features prominent Decepticon symbols. That coupled with his seemingly antagonistic (at least to the main humans) role in the film don't help his image, however his instruction booklet has a red border and the cross-sell on his wavemate Megatron's box advertises Skullitron as an Autobot.
