King Pig is a Deceptihog from the Angry Birds Transformers continuity.
Have you seen me?

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

Though he's dim as a burnt-out bulb, King Pig "ruled" Piggie Island, commanding his countless followers in a never-ending drive to steal eggs for tasty meals, only to be beaten time and again by members of the Flock. And then the AllSpark hit the island, granting King Pig the powers of tank-mode Decepticons like Bludgeon, Brawl and even the mighty Megatron! Sure, he's not exactly sure-footed on those treads (he didn't use to even have feet, after all!), but when one of his new limbs is a powerful cannon? Look out, birds!

Unfortunately, the moment he gained these new abilities was also the exact moment he lost control of virtually all of his Minion Pig army, who joined forces with the Eggbots. Thus he's been forced to team up with his former enemies -now calling themselves the Autobirds- to free his fellow loyal Pigs and prevent Piggie Island from being turned into nothing but cold steel.

As Bludgeon

With the power of Bludgeon, King Pig's primary attack is a quick double-blast of three projectiles each that spread out in a fan pattern. This makes him very effective at taking out flying foes and scrambler missiles, as well as obliterating Glass and Wood Blocks easily. Unfortunately, the blasts don't have much "push" to them without significant upgrading, severely limiting their effectiveness against Stone.

With sufficient upgrading and an Energon Cube, he can call down Skywarp Pig to carpet-bomb the immediate area. The more Cubes he holds, the wider and more powerful the range of the big badaboom will be.

It takes ??? popped Bad Piggies to unlock Bludgeon's "break free" level, and its completion unlocks him permanently. While you can bring Bludgeon into the game via Telepod without completing the level, it only lasts for 6 hours before you need to "reload" him. Thankfully, any progress made in that time is saved.

Notes

File:ABTF-megatron.png
  • King Pig's new robo-body is based loosely on live-action film series Megatron from Revenge of the Fallen.
  • The final game model differs from the original artwork developed for the character (seen in-game only in the loading screen). The original design for "Megatron Pig" has a much more claw-like cannon-arm, a different design for the head-crest, and a much more skeletal abdomen.
