Strider Astro Toilets are a common variant of the Astro Toilets, first appearing and making their debut in Episode 76.
Appearance
Similar to the Trooper Astro Toilet, the Strider Astro Toilet has no visible stripes on his helmet, indicating that he is a low-ranking member. He resides in a metallic toilet that is entirely covered in extremely durable metal armor, with a large and extremely powerful plasma cannon affixed to the front of his toilet bowl. Instead of flying, he has four metallic, crab-like legs attached to the sides of his toilet, though they seem to be capable of limiting levitation.
Standard appearance (Base Unit)
Standard Appearance
In Episode 76, the Strider Astro Toilets made their debut. They are like Strider Skibidi Toilets, but are much smaller than them. They have a projectile blaster on them. One Strider Astro Toilet fires a projectile, but dies due to the Camera Strider 2.0. In Episode 77, there were 3 Strider Astro Toilets attacking the Alliance. But, they all ended up dying to them. In the 4th part of Episode 77, they were seen being deployed by 2 Obliterator Astro Toilets. It is likely if they died during the battle around that time.
Elite appearance (Tri-Blaster Unit)
Elite Appearance
In Episode 78, there were 2 elite variants of Strider Astro Toilets. They are very similar to standard variants of the Strider Astro Toilet, but they have 2 additional blasters on the sides. They were seen firing at the Executor Speakerman, but he stopped them with his speakers and deflected the projectiles back at them, killing them in the process.
Abilities
Strider Astro Toilets act as small offensive tank units, firing powerful plasma projectiles at opponents and relying on Trooper Astro Toilets & Specialist Astro Toilets for protection and support. Though bulky, they are quite useless against more powerful and larger opponents, as seen when the Strider Astro Toilet was ambushed by the Camera Strider 2.0.
Combat
Heavy Plasma Cannon
The Strider Astro Toilet features an extremely advanced plasma blaster cannon integrated into the front of his toilet. The cannon emits an orange plasma bolt at the tip when it's charged and ready to fire, signaling its activation. This weapon is capable of launching destructive plasma projectiles at medium speed, with its power intensifying the longer it charges. The prolonged charging results in significantly increased damage potential, making it a formidable tool in prolonged combat situations. In later episodes, some Strider Astros have been seen firing slightly faster projectiles. This may be an upgrade or simply an alternate form of fire.
Twin Plasma Cannons
A minor upgrade given to the Strider Astro Toilets are retractable plasma cannons, paralleling the astro cannons given to their bigger counterparts. These fire small projectiles made up of plasma at a rapid pace. These seem to only available to the elite variants.
Defense
Combat Helmet
Protective headgear made of metal that features a retractable design, allowing it to extend or fold away when not in use. This helmet provides durability and protection, typically using a mechanism that enables the helmet to expand over the head for defense or collapse for convenience, combining practicality with robust defense.
Metal Plates
The reinforced plates covering the entirety of the toilet bowl feature a dark glossy finish, offering robust defense in combat environments and providing the Astro with enhanced protection on the battlefield.
Movement
Thick-Clawed Mechanical Legs
These four robust, mechanical limbs are designed for enhanced mobility on the battlefield. Each leg is reinforced with thick plating for durability, with supporting powerful claws at the end of each limb that provide both stability and a menacing offensive capability. The jointed, segmented design of the two front legs allows for quick, precise movements across varied terrain, while the two large back legs appear to function similarly to a grasshopper's, allowing the Astro to perform long-distance jumps in navigating over rough terrain, evoking a sense of predatory efficiency. With their clawed tips gripping the ground firmly, they offer an agile, spider-like mobility, ideal for navigating difficult combat environments while maintaining a defensive posture.

In this episode, the Strider Astro Toilet made his first appearance as a secondary antagonist in Part 1. He would jump into battle behind a group of Trooper Astro Toilets and disable the Heavy Large Cameraman's Holographic shield with his Cyber-cannon blast. After preparing to fight the Heavy Large Cameraman, the Upgraded Camera Strider suddenly appeared behind the Astro and opened fire, incapacitating the Astro. Moments later, the Camera Strider finished him off using his Charged plasma cannon, killing the Astro.

Skibidi Toilet 78
In this episode, the Strider Astro Toilets would be a recurring antagonist. One was seen atop a roof with the Hunter Astro Mutant and watched it kill the POV-Cameraman, another is seen - staring at the POV, on the wall of screens - showing multiple POV's being killed. Multiple Strider Astro Toilets would be seen fighting The Alliance and the Skibidi Toilets. One can be seen in the background when the reinforcements warp onto the field, before getting blasted, followed by two more that engaged the Large TV Man 2.0 - whom both got cut down by his giant blade. Then, another Strider Astro Toilet would scream before being shot in the head by a Large Cameraman 3.0.

Trivia
- A common consensus is that the Strider Astro Toilet is a strider unit, though this is questionable as they have four legs instead of three.
- This makes Strider Astro Toilet the first "strider" unit to have an even number of legs.
- This Astro Toilet has a sound similar to Godzilla when he before gets shot by a Camera Strider's energy blast, but the sound is hard to hear and is a bit inaudible because of the huge sound effects and the music in the background.
- This is the first and only character within Skibidi Toilet to speak a language other than English or Skibidi, one in Episode 76 said "BLYAAAAAAAAAA-" before getting cutoff. It is easy to assume that he was saying "Blyat" (Блять) because DaFuq!?Boom! is Russian. "Blyat" (Блять) when translated from Russian is "F*ck".
- It is possible that this is a reference to "DO THE DOOR BLYAT", an older video by Boom.
- The role of these units seems to be both as tank units and as small artillery pieces.
