Eggbird is a Maximal Egg Beast from the Beast Wars portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.

Eggbird (エッグバード Eggubādo) is the airborne Maximal Egg Beast, able to transform from a hawk mode into, uh, a ball. Like his fellow Egg Beasts, he is among the oldest of the Maximals. His small stature belies his bravery and experience in aerial combat.

Fiction

Ask Vector Prime

Eggbird was a sleeper agent of Unicron, inserted into Maximal society. Like all the Egg Beasts, his alternate forms bore many similarities to Unicron's own structure. Unicron would reuse his design for the Sparkbot Zangetsu. Ask Vector Prime

• 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.
