Corporal Pig is a Deceptihog from the Angry Birds Transformers continuity.
Break away from me!

Already tougher than the average Minion Pig, Corporal Pig has been given a real boost by the EggSpark, granting him the powers of the mighty Transformer Galvatron! In fact, as Galvatron Pig, Scorponok Pig, and Motormaster Pig, this Deceptihog is driven by the need to conquer everyone and everything. Yikes!

Thankfully, Corporal Pig is still pretty dang stupid.

Fiction

Angry Birds comic

Corporal Pig was standing idle when Chuck burst into Moustache Pig's latest building. The bird's entrance interrupted King Pig's latest attempt at cooking the Flock's eggs, and the entirety of the Bad Piggies were sent fleeing. As they hopped along, the Pigs stumbled upon the EggSpark. The first "volunteer" to touch the artifact became "Starscream Pig" and flew off. The rest of the pigs then touched the artifact, and Corporal Pig became Galvatron Pig! Unfortunately, Galvatron Pig received a healthy does of insanity to go along with his new body. He could now hear a number of voices inside his head, instigating him to perform all sorts of destructive acts. The pigs were soon joined by a couple of birds who were similarly upgraded upon touching the EggSpark. Megatron Pig ordered a retreat, and Galvatron Pig sped away in his truck mode. Angry Birds Transformers #1

Galvatron Pig was then tasked to carry Lockdown Pig around, as the incompetant foreman was unable to transform out of his "toilet mode." As the Deceptihogs began to argue between themselves, a Terror Tower sprung up from beneath them. Galvatron Pig began blasting away at the structure. This only led to the Deceptihogs tumbling inside of the tower when the floor beneath their feet gave way. Grimlock Bird then burst in and attacked the pigs. As Galvatron Pig fought the new arrival, he asked Grimlock Bird how he found time to do anything when his verbal tic made him say his own name over and over. No sooner was Grimlock Bird taken out that the rest of the Autobirds arrived. Galvatron Pig took on Heatwave Bird, though his efforts amounted to little against his steadfast opponent. The fight came to an abrupt end when the Flock's eggs suddenly sprouted mechanical limbs, multiplied, and proved themselves to be hostile. Age of Eggstinction!

The Autobirds and Deceptihogs joined forces to combat this newly arisen threat. But the pigs and birds were fighting a losing battle, forcing them to change tactics. Galvatron Pig was assigned to a team tasked with rescuing capturing an Eggbot for study. He proved too unstable to stay focused on the mission at hand, and began to blast away wrecklessly at the Eggbots instead of making any effort at capturing one. Once more, Heatwave Bird confronted the Deceptihog. Galvatron Pig came out on top in their little clash when Heatwave Bird attempted to transform into his vehicle mode, but instead turned into a novelty "singing plant" toy. Galvatron Pig rammed him with his truck mode, sending Heatwave Bird flying over the horizon. Galvatron Pig then turned on the three Minion Pigs in his group before moving on to Jazz Bird.

Before he had a chance to blast his latest target however, Heatwave Bird came roaring back. He had been returned to his point of origin thanks to the giant slingshot he had landed in. Galvatron Pig was knocked unconscious and restrained. Revenge of the Fowlin'!

Galvatron Pig briefly awoke, and began ranting about destroying everything before being knocked out once more by Grimlock Bird. When he awakened yet again, the pigs and birds had come within reach of the EggSpark. Galvatron Pig broke his bonds and ran amok. He took out Grimlock Bird, then Jazz Bird, before taking Bluestreak Bird out of commission. Lockdown Pig was his next victim, quickly followed by Arcee Bird. Galvatron Pig seemed unstoppable until an EggSpark-empowered Starscream Pig challenged him. (Galvatron Pig still found the time to knock out Heatwave Bird en-route to meet this latest opponent.) Soundwave Pig and Grimlock Bird stepped in to restrain Galvatron Pig, while Starscream Pig and the EggSpark were flung off-planet, returning everything to normalcy. As the Bad Piggies went their own way, Corporal Pig had to put up with another of King Pig's temper tantrums. Hard Boiled

Angry Birds storybooks

Galvatron Pig joined his leader in his plot to poach all the EggBots to eat them! They were thwarted by Optimus Prime Bird and his troops. Robot Birds in Disguise

Galvatron Pig enjoyed barking orders to other piggies, and blasted all those who argued into micro-crumbs! He participated in a great big clash against the Autobirds in the middle of a desert. The Deceptihogs were forced to flee after they lost the battle. Deceptihogs Versus Autobirds

Commercial appearances

Galvatron Pig shot down all the prop cacti in his "wild west" themed set, showed off his parking skills, and showed off some slick moves on the dance floor. Corporal Pig as Galvatron

Galvatron Pig was part of a crazy dance party at the Deceptihogs' headquarters, where they used the EggSpark as a dance light. It was all very silly. Deceptihogs' Revenge

Galvatron Pig was supposed to act as Megatron Pig's spotter as he worked out at the gym. Unfortunately, Galvatron Pig was distracted by Arcee Bird walking by. He picked up a lollypop she discarded on a nearby control panel, oblivious to the distress signal Megatron Pig was sending to the nearby screens. Arcee and Airachnid join the team!

Games

Angry Birds Transformers

After being given the powers of Galvatron, Corporal Pig was captured by the Eggbots and frozen in a block of ice. Once freed, he and his fellow Deceptihogs joined forces with the Autobirds to return Piggy Island to normal. Angry Birds Transformers

As Galvatron

  • Squad: Target: 2006
  • Mission Type: Firepower
  • Unlock Type: New Area (800 pigs)

As Galvatron, Corporal Pig's primary attack is an instant-hit narrow-field laser beam that can bust blocks and pop Piggies with ease. It works wonders on flying foes, and at high levels can obliterate Walking Mortar Towers in a few hits! Unfortunately, it hasn't got the best rate of fire, and using it too quickly causes it to overheat and become unusable til he cools down, leaving him vulnerable. Therefore, he must very carefully choose his targets (which must rankle his "blast everything" attitude). Sometimes it's better to simply directly attack an armed Piggie than try and topple its tower.

As Energon Galvatron

  • Squad: Energon Fueled
  • Mission Type: Firepower
  • Unlock Type: New Area (2000 2400 pigs)

As if Galvatron Pig wasn't crazy-go-nuts powerful already, his energon-fueled incarnation adds some extra oomph, with a little bit of explosion upon destruction of the target, which can really set up a chain reaction of collapsing blocks. Of course, he keeps the unpredictable overheating problem, and adds the issue of his volatile energon-streaked body taking extra damage from even normal attacks. Luckily, he can heal damage by absorbing energon cubes prized from blasting cyberformed bits of the scenery.

As Scorponok

A Scorponok that doesn't transform into a scorpion??
  • Squad: Enslavers
  • Mission Type: Firepower
  • Unlock Type: Challenge Event Prize (10000 Tokens)

Whereas Galvatron is powerful, dangerous, and evil, Scorponok is powerful, dangerous, and... oh. He joins the the roster of Deceptihogs clamoring and bickering for leadership over Piggy Island.

Scorponok's laser beams pierce through targets just like Shockwave's, and his cannon has more firepower. However, shooting (five times) too rapidly will cause the gun to overheat and leave him vulnerable for several seconds.

He was first available in the May 2017 event, "Headmaster", at the new standard new character cost of 10000 tokens! Unlike Trypticon's event, you don't have the benefit of a maximum of 1500 tokens and a minimum of 500 tokens from leaderboards, but the event does go for 7 days.

Toys

Angry Birds Transformers

  • Galvatron Pig (Telepod Racers, 2014)
    • Accessories: Telepods base
Part of the Toys"R"Us "Angry Birds Transformers" toyline, Galvatron Pig is figurine that autotransforms into a truck with the robot pig head on top when you push down on the head, and pops back up into robot mode via spring-loaded mechanism.
His underside has a tiny code on the back that can be read by the Angry Birds Transformers app by placing it on top of a Telepod that has been placed on an iPhone/Android phone's camera lens. This allows you to scan him into the game and unlock him as a playable character, give the unlocked version a temporary stat boost, or speed up his upgrade/repair time.


  • Optimus Prime Attack Game
    • Accessories: Ramp, launcher
The Optimus Prime Attack Game includes a non-transforming Galvatron Pig vehicle, with the pig's "head" being removable. The game challenges the player to launch Galvatron pig or Optimus Prime Bird at a large block-built Grimlock Bird tower and knock down blocks and Deceptihogs.

Notes

  • The Galvatron Pig design merges elements of the original Galvatron with the alt-mode and other details of the Age of Extinction incarnation. As he levels up, he gains various bits of "armor" and a change in the color of his cannon that cement the G1 look even further.
