- Eggbird (Egg Beast, 1998)
- Japanese ID number: EC-2
- A retool of Micro Change Metal Hawk, Eggbird features a keychain hole added for this release. Eggbird transforms from a mechanical sphere (ostensibly an "egg" mode) into a robotic hawk. He is cast in red translucent plastic except for a handful of chromed and die-cast parts. He has a non-removable keychain attached to his robot-mode back.
- This mold was also used to make Dark Eggbird and Kiss Players Zangetsu.
