Lightning Birds

The Lightning Birds are transformations which appear in the Angry Birds series. It is an alternate state of The Blues, achieved by passing through a wormhole.

They were first teased along with the rest of the birds when the game was being introduced in 2012. They were then introduced along with the game as the "Lightning Birds". The Blues and some of their flock members were introduced as superheroes, based on comic book characters.

After their first appearance in the Pig Bang episode, they will appear in all of the following episodes as playable characters.

The story begins with the Blues and the other birds looking after the eggs when Ice Bird shoots out of an opening wormhole with his Eggsteroid. A robotic arm shoots out of the wormhole and kidnaps the Eggsteroid and the flock's eggs, causing the Blues and the other birds to shoot themselves into the vortex, sending them to space.

Through the portal, the birds are transformed into their space counterparts, along with the Blues. They fly out of the portal into the final frontier, beginning the events of the game.

The Lightning Birds' appearance is based on the Flash, though their ability has nothing to do with speed.

The Lightning Birds, along with all of the other birds (excluding Atomic Bird) received their own promotional videos that can be found on YouTube and their own merchandise.

Their launch noise and corpse noises are just modified versions of their original.

Gameplay
The Blues yet again have the same ability, though they are now charged with electricity (though this does not do much). When they hit a surface, they have an electric shock, though this does not actually do anything, and is merely just for show.

The Blues are also commonly placed after Ice Bird, due to their compatibility with destroying ice/glass.
