Robot Santa Claus was built in 2801 by Mom's Friendly Robot Company. His designers intended him to deliver gifts to all the good people of Earth on Xmas Eve. However, due to a glitch in his judgment circuits, his standards are impossibly high, and he invariably judges everyone to be naughty (one exception is Zoidberg, to whom he gave a pogo stick) - and then he tries to kill them.

Santa Claus spends most of the year living in his Death Fortress on Neptune. His fortress is surrounded and inhabited by Neptunian workers. These workers growth is stunted by the lack of food, so they reach an adult height equivalent to the height of a human knee (as opposed to a healthy Neptunian, such as Elzar, who is comparable in height to a human) and they are all unemployed since the toy factory closed down because of Robot Santa's malfunction.

He took part in the Battle for Earth, 3007 (alongside his holiday counterparts Kwanzaa-bot and Chanukah Zombie forming the Holiday Trinity) as the Scammer Aliens scammed him, making him too miserable for murder.
