This article is about a rider machine in Kamen Rider W. |
The Skullboilder (スカルボイルダー, Sukaruboirudā) is a special motorcycle exclusively for Kamen Rider Skull, designed and developed by Shroud as a replacement-type motorcycle[1][2]. The appearance is very similar to the W's Hardboilder, but the coloring is black, and the letter "W" drawn on the main body is turned sideways "S". Although it was exclusively for Skull, it was later expanded and refurbished with replacement parts by Shroud, and was handed down to W as Hardboiler[1]. The front wheel is equipped with a Universal Launcher (ユニバーサルランチャー, Yunibāsaru Ranchā), a composite weapon that combines live ammunition and missiles exclusively for anti-giant Dopants, but it was unused in any media[3].

Notes[]
- Skullboilder is capable of combining with the Skullgarry, but it is never shown doing so in any media.
- The bike is ridden by Sokichi after he transforms into Skull, as he owns a car in his civilian identity.
- The same shooting vehicle as Hardboilder is used for shooting.
- In Movie War 2010, the Hardboilder was recolored with CG coloring, and in Movie War Core, a repainted version of the Hardboilder is used.
- After that, it remained as Skullboilder for a while, but it was repainted as Hardboilder again in Movie War Mega Max.
- According to Futo Tantei, it seems that the remodeling was being carried out in parallel with Begins Night. After remodeling, Shroud sent it in the Hardsplasher state, and Philip and Shotaro Hidari used it to finally escape from the Museum's research island.
