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.

Games

Angry Birds Transformers

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 create an Energon Shield to protect him from all damage but falling monoliths. The more Cubes he holds, the longer the shield will last.

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.

As Megatron

The first version of Megatron that you can get is called Ultimate Megatron. It shoots out a strong, slow-fire fusion cannon blast. With sufficient upgrades, Ultimate Megatron can use Energon to call in Skywarp Pig to carpet-bomb the whole immediate idea. The more energon you collect, the more powerful the badaboom will be.

With the power of Dark Megatron, a more powerful Megatron, King Pig's primary attack uses Megatron's traditional fusion cannon once again. Also slow firing, it creates a vortex wherever it hits, sucking objects towards the center. It lasts for a short amount of time. Dark Megatron's not very good with taking out fliers or scrambler missiles. With sufficient upgrades, Dark Megatron can use energon cubes to trigger an EMP burst, stunning walking monoliths and flier pigs. If you've upgraded him enough to have multiple levels of it, a tier 2 or tier 3 cube EMP burst will stun all pigs in the current area. And even a tier 1 is handy for taking out incoming missiles that transform you into a hopping washing machine. Which is good, because the projectiles do not travel fast enough to intercept, and if you've shot a lot of things in the area, your screen may be obscured by purple and black vortexes. Oops.

As Brawl

With the power of Brawl, King Pig's primary attack is to shoot 1 projectile twice. It's relatively rapid-fire, but it doesn't fire as fast as Lockdown's weapon. It KIND OF pushes, but not too much.

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.
