Skeleton Drones were the secondary antagonists in the Alpha Team theme. They were Ogel's minions and appeared in nearly every set.
Description[edit | edit source]
Skeleton Drones normally had spears for weapons, except in "Mission Deep Freeze" where they used energized chainsaws. All featured a white head with skeletal features printed in black.
Skeleton Drone[edit | edit source]
Skeleton Drones, appearing in 2001 as the first variant of Ogel's minions, wore suits that were half black and half red with a wide belt. They wore red epaulets and black caps.
Mission Deep Sea Skeleton Drone[edit | edit source]
This variation, appearing in 2002, wore similar suits to the first version, but they also had breathing tanks and large, transparent green helmets.
Mission Deep Sea Skeleton Done Commander[edit | edit source]
This variant was almost identical to the Mission Deep Sea Skeleton Drone, with the exception that it had a badge printed on its torso, indicating its commander status.
Mission Deep Freeze Skeleton Drone[edit | edit source]
Introduced in 2004, this is the first drastically different version. These Drones wore a darker shade of red on one half of their bodies and bore the Ice Orb emblem on their chest. They also had large, transparent blue helmets.
Background[edit | edit source]
Ogel created Skeleton Drones using his Mind Control Orbs to turn normal civilians into the mindless drones. They did his bidding without question and were extremely fierce, especially in Mission Deep Freeze. Once the Mind Control Orbs in question were deactivated, the drones became a normal person again. Skeleton Drones were able to easily handle both Ice Orbs and Mind Control Orbs. An elite Skeleton Drone with a black skull, the Super Ice Drone, battled Agent Zed at the end of the theme's run.
