Talk:Transformations (Angry Birds Transformers)

Generation 1?
"The birds and pigs are based on the Transformers characters in G1"

I wish to challenge this claim. Compare the character designs to those of the characters in Transformers Generation 1. The only ones consistent would be Stella/Arcee, Hal/Grimlock, and just barely, Chef Pig/Soundwave, but only because they needed him to be a vehicle instead of a tape player or boombox. I'm being generous with Soundwave, because his vehicle form seems more reminiscent of his Aligned design during War for Cybertron and Fall of Cybertron, which, to be fair, was itself a Generation 1 homage in terms of design elements, but nevertheless had a vehicular form in addition to the aforementioned boombox.

None of the other Autobirds or Deceptihogs carry elements that would clearly point them to being "based on the Transformers characters in G1"; even Corporal Pig/Galvatron seems to be mostly based on his Age of Extinction appearance in terms of his altmode, though his robot mode does appear to be influenced by G1. Chuck/Bumblebee is very clearly based on his Movie and Prime designs as a muscle car, and Red/Optimus Prime himself has a lot more in common design-wise with his Movie and Prime designs than with his Generation 1 design. A case could be made for Red/Ultra Magnus being more like G1, but only in the sense that he became some sort of Optimus pallette-swap, as some comic and TV continuities depict him. Terrence/Heatwave/Sentinel Prime are clearly Rescue Bots and Dark of the Moon (albeit a barely passing resemblance, being a pallette-swap of a Rescue Bot in this instance), respectively.

Minion Pig/Starscream has remained relatively consistent in his general design elements for several years, leaving the incarnation who inspired his design to be rather ambiguous, and that goes for any of the other Seekers who have appeared thus far.--Akamia (Talk) 12:35, November 1, 2014 (UTC)

Antagonist pigs?
I wouldn't say they are antagonists, I think they are more like deuteragonists. Caleb40043 (talk) 23:43, November 10, 2014 (UTC)Caleb40043
