Lead Swinger — common questions
When was Lead Swinger last in the item shop?
Lead Swinger was last seen in the Fortnite item shop on 17 February 2025. We've recorded 15 appearances since we began tracking the shop on 5 August 2026.
How much does Lead Swinger cost?
We don't have a recorded price for Lead Swinger. We only know an item's price from days it has appeared in the shop while we were tracking it, and this pickaxe hasn't.
Can you still get Lead Swinger?
Most Fortnite cosmetics return to the item shop on rotation, but Epic doesn't publish a schedule and some items — battle pass rewards and promotional items in particular — never come back. There's no reliable way to tell in advance which category any given pickaxe falls into.
What set is Lead Swinger part of?
Lead Swinger is part of the Garage Band set. Items in a set are usually released together and often return to the shop together, though Epic sometimes rotates them individually.
