Krang's Android, one of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles skins introduced to Fortnite in the v34.40 update, holds a surprising secret—but not all players can access it. Fortnite initially teamed up with TMNT in December 2023 during Chapter 5 Season 1, debuting the four turtles in the Item Shop. Later, the Cowabunga TMNT event expanded the roster with Splinter and Shredder. Despite this, fans clamored for even more characters from the iconic franchise.

On April 22, 2025, Chapter 6 Season 2's final update arrived. Data miners uncovered files hinting at new TMNT additions, sparking excitement. That evening, the Item Shop refreshed, revealing fresh TMNT skins, cosmetics, and the fan-favorite Turtle Van.

Krang's Android stands among the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles villains in the Item Shop. For 1,600 V-Bucks, players get the skin, its LEGO style, Krang's War Cry emote, and the Dimension Axe pickaxe—but there's more. Recently, players discovered a secret style: equipping the Krang back bling shifts Krang from the Android's stomach to its back and closes the stomach chute. However, this feature is currently limited to those who unlocked the back bling during the 2024 Cowabunga event.

How to Get Krang's Android Secret Style in Fortnite

While some applaud Epic Games for integrating the back bling creatively, others are frustrated by its exclusivity. The Cowabunga event pass from February 2024 required completing Splinter's Plan Quests to earn Krang's back bling.

Players who missed the Krang back bling in Fortnite shouldn't lose hope. Epic Games has increasingly reintroduced past event and Battle Pass items to the Item Shop, suggesting Krang's back bling could return for purchase later.
