:''Stella is an [[Autobird]] from the [[Angry Birds Transformers (mobile game)|Angry Birds Transformers]] [[continuity family]].''
[[File:ABTF3 ArceeBirdpoint.jpg|thumb|upright=1.1|right]]

Perceptive, focused, and scientifically-inclined '''Stella''' appears to be the "brains" of the [[Flock]]. She nonetheless displays an aversion towards the abnormal, and anything that tests her comfort zone must be scrutinized before it can be trusted. After being transformed into '''[[Arcee (G1)|Arcee]] Bird''' by the [[AllSpark#Angry Birds Transformers continuity family|EggSpark]], she displays an independent streak coupled with a slight disdain for the other <s>jokers</s> members of the [[Autobird]]s. Thankfully, her patience is also amplified in this new form, allowing her to work alongside the others with little friction.

She has a doppelgänger named '''[[Airachnid (Prime)|Airachnid]] Bird''' and is also known as "'''[[Chromia (G1)|Chromia]] Bird'''","'''[[Firestar (G1)|Novastar]] Bird'''", and "'''[[Moonracer (G1)|Moonracer]] Bird'''".

After the [[Bad Piggies]] had stolen a batch of the Flock's eggs, Stella accompanied her fellow birds on a raid to retrieve them. [[Chuck (AB)|Chuck]] managed to foul up [[Red (AB)|Red's]] attack plan, causing the Bad Piggies' building to collapse on top of the Flock while [[King Pig]] and his minions escaped. Stella managed to avoid getting herself buried in the rubble, and urged Red to go after the pigs immediately. However, Red wanted to make sure that the others were unharmed fist. [[Bomb (AB)|Bomb]], [[Terence (AB)|Terence]], [[Bubbles]], and Chuck emerged relatively unscathed, at which point Stella took notice that the [[Blues]] had flown off after the Bad Piggies on their own. The Flock went to look for them, and as they flew about, Stella noticed the three little birds coming back towards them. The trio began babbling about an "EggSpark" and "[[Deceptihog]]s". As soon as the Blues mentioned that the eggs were in danger, the Flock hurried over to confront the pigs once more. {{storylink|Angry Birds Transformers issue 1|Angry Birds Transformers #1}}

By the time Stella reached the EggSpark, the artifact had transformed [[Hal]] and Chuck into "Grimlock Bird" and "Bumblebee Bird" respectively. Stella was curious about her friends' new appendages, (calling them "barns and pegs" before being corrected by Terence and Bomb) and admitted that she found the whole not to be to her liking. Despite her initial misgivings, she agreed to touch the EggSpark in order to grant herself a robotic body. After her upgrade, Arcee Bird was inexplicably seized by the sudden urge to [[introdump|exposit about her new persona and abilities]]. She stated that her "endless patience" was the only thing keeping her from ditching the rest of the "losers" on her team. On Optimus Prime Bird's command, she and the rest of the [[Autobird]]s transformed and rolled out into action. They eventually caught up with the Deceptihogs. Upon their arrival, she argued with Bumblebee Bird, imploring him to stick to their plan of attack, but the impetuous Autobird refused to listen. The battle was soon fully underway, with Arcee Bird helping Optimus Prime Bird take on [[Moustache Pig|Lockdown Pig]]. The clash was interrupted when the Flock's eggs, having been previously exposed to the EggSpark, sprouted robotic limbs, multiplied, and proved themselves to be excessively hostile. {{storylink|Age of Eggstinction!}}

[[File:ABTF3 ArceeBird fullbody.jpg|thumb|right|upright=1.1]]
In spite of this new development, Grimlock Bird insisted on continuing their fight against the Deceptihogs. Arcee Bird told him to pipe down, as the situation had become significantly more perilous for both factions. The Autobirds and the Deceptihogs joined forces to combat this newly arisen threat. During the scuffle against the Eggbots, Arcee Bird noted that they had not only become a threat to themselves, but to [[Piggy Island]]. She managed to dissuade Optimus Prime Bird from fighting with Megatron Pig, and pointed out that their current approach was proving itself to be ineffective against the Eggbots.

[[File:ABTF4 ArceeBirdvehicle.jpg|thumb|left|upright=1.5]]
Arcee Bird was then assigned to a team alongside Bluestreak Bird, Lockdown Pig, and Drift Bird. Their mission: rescue Starscream Pig from the Eggbots. Bluestreak Bird was opposed to saving a "bad guy", but Arcee Bird insisted that any creature in danger deserved their attention. Frustrated, Bluestreak rushed off despite Arcee Bird advising against it. This eneded in Bluestreak Bird getting himself captured as well. Arcee bird deployed a large blaster from her forearm and began blasting away at the structure holding both Bluestreak Bird and Starscream Pig. Her attention was turned away from her objective when she found herself surrounded by gargantuan Eggbots. Nonetheless, her blasting had weakened the structure's walls, allowing her team to hear Bluestreak Bird banging against them from within. Drift Bird cut an opening in the structure, allowing Bluestreak Bird and a battalion of Eggbots to swarm out. The two group of eggs scared one another off, and the lot of them fled the scene. Arcee Bird could only stare dumbfounded as she muttered to herself: "eggs, eggs, so many eggs."

With Bluestreak Bird now rescued, Arcee Bird's group reconvened with the others. They had little time to regain their bearings however, as Starscream Pig pointed out that the island's transformation was accelerating. {{storylink|Revenge of the Fowlin'!}} 

[[File:ABTF4 HappyBirds.jpg|thumb|upright=1.1|right]]
Megatron Pig was ready to call off the whole situation as hopeless, but Arcee Bird argued that they needed only to think things through. The Autobirds and Deceptihogs eventually managed to formulate a plan, having figured out that they needed to separate the EggSpark from the land to cease its transformation. Guns ablaze, they made their way to the EggSpark's location. As they neared their goal, Galvatron Pig went berserk and turned against the rest of the group. Arcee Bird was taken out by one of the Deceptihog's cannon blasts, leaving her unable to help in launching the EggSpark off-planet. Despite her absence, the EggSpark was successfully catapulted away, and everything returned to normalcy. As the Flock discussed the day's events, Stella bounced about cheerily, saying they all had earned a little peace and quiet... unaware that nearby, a robot cactus had begun to run wild. {{storylink|Hard Boiled}}

==Commercial appearances==
Stella got turned into Arcee Bird by the power of the EggSpark. She then helped the Autobirds and Deceptihogs destroy some turrets recently cyberformed by the Eggbots. {{storylink|Commercial#Angry Birds Transformers|Angry Birds Transformers: Cinematic Trailer}}

Arcee worked out lifting some weights at a gym. It sure was easy for her... but not for King Pig. Especially when his spotter, Galvatron Pig got distracted by the lollipop that Arcee Bird left behind on a nearby control panel. Elsewhere, Airachnid Bird was doing some yoga stretches... until she got her foot stuck behind her neck. After Airachnid Bird, Arcee Bird, Optimus Prime Bird and Megatron Pig finished their workouts, the four of them jumped up in the air in a cheer. Freezeframe. {{storylink|Commercial#Angry Birds Transformers|Arcee and Airachnid join the team!}}

Arcee Bird and Optimus Prime Bird were on the run from some Flying Pigbots when they came to a cliff edge. They tried to fight back, only to realize they were out of ammo! Thankfully, Bluestreak Bird showed up and helped them out! {{storylink|Commercial#Angry Birds Transformers|Meet Bluestreak and Prowl!}}

*''Squad'': '''Valkyries'''

Arcee Bird is a "speedster" character, not as blindingly fast as [[Chuck (AB)|Bumblebee]] but on-par with the likes of [[Bubbles|Jazz]] or [[Minion Pig#As Starscream|Starscream]]. Her blaster unleashes a rapid-fire stream of force bubbles that don't pack very much destructive force, but have ''absolutely'' the most vicious "push" power of any attack in the game. One blast can send a piggy or a giant stone block flying to the far horizon. Like [[Corporal Pig|Galvatron Pig]], she needs to be choosy in which blocks to push away to send towers toppling. However, she fires more blasts per burst at higher levels, and "dragging" the targeting reticule can send them in a broad swath rather than a concentrated blast. {{storylink|Angry Birds Transformers (mobile game)|Angry Birds Transformers}}

At first, Arcee Bird could only be unlocked semi-randomly by sending characters away on Space Bridge Missions. Arcee would sometimes appear as part of the roulette wheel of prizes for the longest mission at a Bridge. Later, Arcee would become an unlockable character in the "Medic!" special event (running from [[August 23]] through [[August 28]] 2016), and then again in the next event "Ride of the Valkyries'' ([[September 2]] through [[September 7]] 2016). Both events focused on destroying a specific block type each day to earn Tokens to unlock prizes.

====As Airachnid====
[[File:Airachnid-Bird.jpg|thumb|300px|What, not Gale?]]
*''Squad'': '''Valkyries'''
*''Mission Type'': '''Investigator'''
*''Unlock Type'': Mission Prize, Special Event Prize

When Arcee Bird came into the fray, the Eggbots got it in their... heads?... to try their cloning ploy again, this time with Arcee. And just like with [[Red (AB)|Nemesis Prime Bird]], it all went wrong and they went and gave the Autobird/Deceptihog alliance another warrior. Oops. Airachnid Bird may be a bit of a creepy loner, and nobody's ''really'' sure what she'll do if she finds the EggSpark, but there's no question she's no friend of the Eggbots.

Airachnid Bird is very similar to Arcee bird, being speedy and using force bubbles as a weapon. But where Arcee shoots a steady stream, Airachnid's blaster fires them in a shotgun-like spread. One bubble will be directly aimed at the intended target, but the others spread out. The higher her level, the more bubbles she fires at once. These bubbles don't quite pack the push-punch Arcee's does, but Airachnid can cut a broader swath of destruction with the right aim. 

At first, Airachnid Bird could only be unlocked semi-randomly by sending characters away on Space Bridge Missions. Airachnid would sometimes appear as part of the roulette wheel of prizes for the longest mission at a Bridge. Later, Airachnid would become an unlockable character in the "Medic!" special event (running from [[August 23]] through [[August 28]] 2016), and then again in the next event "Ride of the Valkyries'' ([[September 2]] through [[September 7]] 2016). Both events focused on destroying a specific block type each day to earn Tokens to unlock prizes.

Despite being an Autobird, Airachnid uses Deceptihog Materials in her upgrades. And truthfully, she came out before Nemesis.

====As Chromia====
[[File:Chromia-Bird.jpg|thumb|200px|Can't you hear me yella? You're puttin' me through hella! Stella! STELLA!!!]]
*''Squad'': '''Valkyries'''
*''Mission Type'': '''Investigator'''
*''Unlock Type'': Challenge Event Prize (5000 Tokens)

Stella-as-Chromia as the mentor and bodyguard of [[Silver|Windblade Bird]] makes an appearance as the second new character of 2017. Her weapon is a halfway point between Arcee's and Airachnid's, as it fires a rapid succession of bubbles but with a bit of a random spread (not as wide as Airachnid's). Instead of ''pushing'' stuck-but-not-destroyed objects though, the bubbles can ''pull'' entire groups of objects towards the screen, giving you a ''really'' good close-up view of pigs as they fly forward. While this means some  risk of taking minor damage from colliding into blocks, it actually makes Chromia the most destructive (and profitable) of the Stellas, as any blocks that go ''behind'' the "camera" are instantly destroyed.

Chromia was first teased in the "Valentine's Day" Challenge Event, but wasn't available to unlock until two events later in the "Red, White, and Blue" event.

*''Squad'': '''Femme Fatale'''

*''Unlock Type'': Challenge Event Prize
Novastar's projectiles are bubbles imbued with fire. They fly in an odd pattern, moving in the direction of Novastar to the recticle slightly faster than the player before rocketing towards the target, but once that’s done, it can do real damage to towers.

Moonracer's projectiles are extremely similar to Novastar's, but instead of incendiary effects, Moonracer‘s projectiles are equipped with an EMP effect, and are fired faster.

This makes her a much better character overall, as you can do more destruction and not get as much firepower.

Well, Greenlight used to be a scientist, and her weapon does have some interesting science to it. It basically combines Acree/Chromia's & [[Corporal Pig#As Drag Strip|Drag Strip's]] weapons, firing a small stream of green (I don't know why green) bubbles, which have the former two's strong push and Drag Strip's homing ricochet effect. The combination? Things flying everywhere.

==Notes==
* Despite being heavily featured in early advertisements and artwork for the game, Stella-as-Arcee was not actually ''in'' the game for a very long time. Oops. By the time she was added to the playable roster, the original heavily-[[Arcee (G1)|Generation-1-Arcee]] design was changed to be more of a merger of Generation 1 and [[Arcee (WFC)|''Prime'' Arcee]], with a motorcycle altmode.
* In celebration of the launch of the ''Angry Birds: Transformers'' game, a costumed actress portrayed Arcee Bird and interacted with fans young and old at [[New York Comic Con#2014|New York Comic Con 2014]] (despite not being in the game oops).
* Arcee Bird's [[Daniel (AB)|Daniel]] Accessory is, of course, a reference to [[The Transformers (franchise)|Generation 1]] [[Daniel Witwicky (G1)|Daniel Witwicky]], who eventually became [[Arcee (G1)|Generation 1 Arcee's]] [[Headmaster (technology)|Headmaster]] partner.
* Airachnid Bird's Insecticon accessory does not appear to be based on any specific Insecticon, which is actually a real oddity for this game.
