Bubbles



"'I'm not smiling! It's an anger frown, it's an anger face!'""–Bubbles, The Angry Birds Movie - Hal and Bubbles short"

is a character in the Angry Birds series. He is a bird granted with the ability of inflating, and a member of the Angry Birds.

Appearance
Bubbles appears as a small round orange bird with a large yellow beak. His black feathers on top of his head have different sizes. The first feather is short while the other is large and his stomach is black.

However, in Angry Birds Toons, he looks mostly the same but with white eye pupils on his eyes.

In The Angry Birds Movie, Bubbles appears as an orange anthropomorphic Oriole in an identical appearance as his game counterpart. His black feathers on top of his head is enlarge and has orange streaks on them and has black feet as well as black feathers at the back. His eyes are yellow green instead of black.

However, his prototype design had him colored in a darker orange with green polka-dots. It's also noticeable that he has less childish expressions, which is what leads to speculate that he was intended to be elder than his final version.

Personality
Bubbles has shown very different personalities and has conflicted with the timeline multiple times. He was shown to be very immature, fearless and with a great love of candy, and have a temperament because of this, even being unintentionally kidnapped for the candy that the pigs had. It is also implied that Bubbles is fearless due to him facing off against vampires, werewolves, and zombies. In Angry Birds Transformers, the bio for Blaster says that Bubbles' love of candy extends to all things sweet revealing more of his personality besides his love of candy.

This personality has been shown in the Angry Birds Toons, where he only appears in Halloween based episodes.

However, The Angry Birds Movie shows a much different version of him. Instead of being found by the Blues, In fact, he is much older than his personality from the games, as he meets The Blues before they are even hatched. while he is close friends with Hal, and the two of them work for Matilda at her anger management classes. This version of Bubbles is very wild, being very reckless and at times uncontrollable. He has a strong desire to be an "angry bird", but fails to do so, due to being too optimistic.

Powers and abilities
Bubbles is known for inflating like a balloon. However, unlike Bomb, his expansion doesn't displace all the objects within its blast radius, rather, it forcefully expels the objects closest to it but objects just slightly hit at the extent of the inflation will barely move and even stay in place. This makes him most effective when he lands right next to the desired target, as even though it may hit objects further out, it does little to nothing against them. When Bubbles expands within an enclosed space or crevice smaller than itself, it will quickly push itself outward until intersession.

Atomic Bird


By passing through an extraterrestrial wormhole of some kind, Bubbles can turn into Atomic Bird. In this state, he wears a belt with an eggsteroid symbol, but his power remains the same though it's a little weaker. This transformation only appeared in Angry Birds Space.

Jazz


By being exposed to the radiation of an extraterrestrial device, Bubbles can turn into Jazz. In this state, he gains a robotical look with a helmet. As an Autobird, he can change his form to turn into a porsche or a person. He can shoot a stronger rocket than Bumblebee that can destroy obstacles. This transformation only appeared in Angry Birds Transformers.

 * Bubbles and Silver are confirmed to be almost of the same age and seem to have a love relationship, as they were spoofing the British prince and princess 2018 marriage in an Angry Birds Blast offer picture.
 * In Angry Birds 2, it is possible for Bubbles to "deflate" in a way. this can happen if he is inflated, and goes through a portal in any Bamboo forest level. in this state, he does not have a death sound.
 * Also in Angry Birds 2, if he is inflated, his physics will go from rigid-body to soft-body. This is because Unity (the engine that the game uses) supports soft-body physics in addition to rigid-body physics (and Box2D can only handle rigid-body physics).
