Have you seen me?

This character or person needs some sort of visual representation. If you have one, please replace this.

Already tougher than the average Minion Pig, Corporal Pig has been given a real boost by the Allspark Egg, granting him the powers of the mighty Transformer Galvatron! In fact, this Deceptihog has even more power than any of King Pig's Transformer incarnations! Yikes!

Thankfully, Corporal Pig is still pretty dang stupid.


Games

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, Corporal Pig's primary attack is a an instant-hit narrow-field laser beam that can bust Glass or Wood blocks and pop Piggies with ease. It works wonders on flying foes! Unfortunately, it has a slow rate of fire, does a lousy job of pushing blocks (don't bother aiming at Stone), and after 3~5 shots (chosen randomly!), it needs a few moments to fully recharge, leaving him vulnerable. Therefore, he must very carefully choose his targets. Sometimes it's better to simply directly attack an armed Piggie than try and topple its tower.

His secondary attack, fueled by energon cubes gained by de-cyberforming structures, allows him to summon Skywarp to carpet-bomb the immediate area.

Corporal Pig was also given an Energon Galvatron upgrade, with a more powerful laser.

Galvatron requires 800 Piggie points and the completion of his intro level to unlock in-game. Scanning his toys via Telepod only gives you about 6 hours of time to use him, but you can scan over and over again.

  • 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.

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 luanch Galvatron pig or Optimus Prime Bird at a large block-built Grimlock Bird tower and knock down blocks and Deceptihogs.
