Shrednauts were giant Foot Mechs piloted by Foot Clan operatives. They appeared in seasons 4 and 5 of the 2003 TV series and served Karai. The word Shrednaut is an obvious portmanteau of the words "Shredder" and "juggernaut" but is also meant to rhyme with "dreadnought."
If draws many similarities with Shredder's 4 arm exosuit - center Foot emblem, four arm, the stomach cavity as command area.
They appeared in "Scion of the Shredder", "Prodigal Son", "Good Genes, Part 2" and "New World Order, Part 1" manned by Foot Technicians. A Shrednaut was also seen on display as an artifact in Fast Forward in "Future Shellshock" and "The Journal".
Shrednauts are primarily responsible for the destruction of the Y'Lyntian outpost lair during the events of Scion of the Shredder.
