=The Blues=

Angry Birds
The Blues first made their debut in the Angry Birds Classic, where they were the second characters introduced and members of the core flock. After their introduction level in Poached Eggs 1-10, they become playable characters for all of the themes that follow, excluding The Big Setup, which was dedicated entirely to Hal and Terence. While in early cinematic trailers and promotions, there was only shown to be one, single Blue Bird. It has then been confirmed that they are three, separate individuals, rather than one bird that duplicates itself.

Gameplay
The Blues are the first birds to be introduced that have an ability, to split into three. The birds are split with some force, so the top bird flies a bit upward while the bottom bird flies a bit downward, while the middle bird continues in the regular path. Their strengths and weaknesses are seen here.

There is also a neon blue potion in Short Fuse that when in contact with pigs, splits them in three. This can rack up your points insanely and can have destructive effects, especially when the potion is cracked near multiple targets.

Angry Birds Seasons
Jay, Jake, and Jim, along with the rest of the flock, appear in the next installment of the game as playable characters. They were introduced when the game was first released (previously known as Angry Birds Halloween) in the Trick or Treat theme as the second characters introduced, and then on appear in all of the following themes. Unlike the other games, Seasons maintains its character designs, so the Blues keep their classic appearance. Like all of the other characters, they have unlockable costumes.

The Blues, while not often, will appear in cover art and promotional art as prominent characters. (such as Tropigal Paradise, where they appear rather than Red) They also appeared in the Ham'o'ween animation as the main characters, where they save Bubbles from being consumed by the King pig.

Gameplay
The Blues bear the same exact ability that they have in the first game, with no major changes made to their size, strength, or speed.

When it comes to water logic in Piglantis, they will be extremely weak if they don't have any speed. Thus, the player should only target structures and pigs close to the surface of the water, so that they can hit them immediately or first plunge into the water and then receive some speed as they float to the surface.

They are also moderate at destroying sand and snow, which are very weak substances. It is suggested, because of this, that the player doesn't use them to destroy these materials as if structures are supported by these materials, the Blues likely won't destroy enough of the material to knock the structures down.

Angry Birds Rio
Jay, Jake, and Jim along with Red and Chuck are captured by the smugglers and sent to the Smugglers' Den in Rio. They are encaged in a room with other stolen birds, but due to their strength and range, they are able to break out of the cage, beginning the events of the game. They are once again the second characters introduced, and after the player unlocks them they are playable characters in all of the themes that follow. Once the flock defeats Nigel and frees all of the birds, they manage to hijack the plane and send it back to Piggy Island, where they manage to arrive just in time to save the eggs from being stolen by the pigs once again.

The Blues, along with the rest of the flock, go back to Rio to visit their friends Blu and Jewel, starting the Rio 2 segment. In this segment, the Blues, like all the other characters, receive design changes. Jay, Jake, and Jim take on their Toons animation style, but no major features of them are changed. They receive newer outlines and shading. Strangely, in the earlier promotional art and animations for the game, only one single blue bird was shown. However, this is likely because it hadn't been decided by Rovio whether they were 3 separate birds or one single one.

Gameplay
The Blues maintain the same ability they have had the past two games, and no major changes are made to their speed, size or strength. However, it is notable that marmosets and caged birds are much tougher targets then the pigs, who were very weak and easily popped. The Blues can easily break through the cages and marmosets but cannot destroy entire groups of them as they can with the pigs. The Blues are not very useful when it comes to directly harm bosses, so during boss battles, the player should use them to knock down weakly supported structures or to activate TNT boxes.

Angry Birds Friends
Jay, Jake and Jim appear as playable characters in Angry Birds Friends.

Gameplay
The Blues are the same as in previous slingshot games. When launched, if the player taps them, they will split into 3. They are very strong against glass, but weak against other materials.

In the Star Cup, they can be leveled up by obtaining feathers.

Jay also appeared purchasable in the Bird-O-Matic. He can wear any accessory and can be chosen as the player's avatar.

Angry Birds Space
Jay, Jake, and Jim 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.

Bad Piggies
The Blues appeared in Bad Piggies as the main antagonists when the game was first released. However, they only appeared in the cutscenes; they pranked the pigs by painting rocks with white paint, tricking them into thinking that they are eggs, beginning the events of the game. Once the pigs find out that they've been tricked, the Blues laugh, knowing that their prank was successful.

They then have a much more involved appearance after the Flight in the Night update, where they are featured as enemies. After this update, they along with Chuck and Red appear as hazards for the pig, Ross. This is the first time the Blues appear as antagonists.

Jay, Jake, and Jim's designs slightly change. They receive different outlining, as well as better shading and animation.

Gameplay
When Flight in the Night was first released, they did not appear in the initial ten levels. However, once the second and third chapters were released, they were featured as enemies in various levels. They first appear sleeping, however, if the player makes enough noise, they will wake up and go after Ross.

Like Chuck, they use their ability when they sling themselves. If they split far from the player, then the results will not be as destructive, as a single blue bird is not very strong. However, if all three manage to hit the vehicle then the player might lose control and crash. Notably, there is no glass in the game, but they can still activate TNT and damage wood (though they will simply bounce off of metal pieces).

They can also land on the top of your vehicle, which will cause terrible balance and can topple the vehicle over.

Angry Birds Star Wars
The Blue Squadron, or Pilot Birds, are counterparts based off of Jay, Jake and Jim in the Angry Birds Star Wars universe. They are part of the Rebel forces against the Pork Side, and normally fly jets.

Unlike the other characters of the game, the Blues are not based on a specific character, but an entire group.

The Blue Squadron fly in the formation of one and then split to confuse the enemy. They are reliable and dedicated to fighting the Sith. According to the encyclopaedia of the characters, you must be "blue" in order to be a part of the army. Their helmets are worn with pride to represent who they are, while the orange stripe running down in the middle allows them to see each other more clearly.

Gameplay
Once again, the Blues have the same exact ability that they've had in every single game before. (actually being the only characters whose ability didn't change in this game)

However, as the player progresses he/she can unlock an upgrade, a feature that has never existed before in any of the other Angry Birds games. In this upgrade, their ability becomes much stronger, and an electric shock is added when the hit any surface, causing a mini-explosion. Once the player unlocks this feature, it cannot be removed and can be used in any of the levels, even the ones previous to the upgrade.

It is also notable that in this game, the characters' abilities can be activated for a small period of time after they land, so this should be kept in mind when the player is playing the game. However, when this is used with the Blue Squadron, it is not very effective.

Angry Birds Star Wars II
The Blues appear in Angry Birds Star Wars II again as not specific characters of the series, but more so multiple characters of the same type. They are the counterparts of the Jedi Younglings (or the Blue Padawans as said in the game) and appear very late into the game in the Rise of the Clones theme.

Jedi Younglings are the apprentices of their mentor, Yoda. They are first seen in the Rise of the Clones cutscene assisting the other birds in fighting Zam Wessel. (though they were introduced from the very beginning of the game as Power-ups)

Unlike the squadron, the Jedi Younglings use a new, Toons based animation style rather than one that is just a re-skinned version of the original.

The Jedi Younglings have a short Padawan haircut covered by a helmet, which protects them.

They are the cheapest birds in the power-up shop.

Gameplay
Unlike most of the other birds of the game, the Blues actually retain their original ability to split in three once again.

However, a notable change that has been given to them is that they are now also effective in destroying wood as well as glass, making them much more useful characters in gameplay. They are also much bulkier and slightly larger than in past games.

Angry Birds Go!
The Blues appear in ''Angry Birds Go! ''as playable characters of the game. Once the player unlocks them, he/she can use them freely (provided that he/she has the energy)

The Blues were introduced with the rest of the flock when the game was first released and was involved in promotional material and trailers for the game. They also received their own merchandise, including Jenga and Telepod figurines.

For the very first time in the Angry Birds Universe, the game is based on computer-generated images and 3D modeling, and the Blues have their own CGI models in the game. They take on the same exact appearance as they always do unlike many of the other characters.

While Jay, Jake, and Jim are 3 separate characters, they are counted as a single unit and sit together in an upside-down helmet with the number "3" on both sides. The helmet can not be removed and will always be with them even when the player changes karts.

Gameplay
The Blues, for the very first time in the Angry Birds series, cannot split into three, as it would not make sense in a racing game.

Instead, they have 3 short boosts that the player can use any time during the race. While a single boost is not as powerful as other characters like Red and Chuck, it is much more versatile and can be distributed throughout the course, though it does require a bit more strategy and timing.

Angry Birds Epic
The Blues were introduced in Angry Birds Epic as playable characters along with Red, Chuck, Bomb, and Matilda. Once the player unlocks them, he/she can use them as one of the 5 playable characters in the story mode. They take on the role of the archers in the game. They also appear in promotional material and trailers for the game.

The Blues, like all of the other characters, can be customized to the player's preference. This includes their costumes (which affect their abilities) and their weapons. This is entirely based on the resources that the player has.

Gameplay
Main Article: Epic Characters

Angry Birds Transformers
Although the Blues appeared in many promotions for the game, including merchandising and the comic series, they never made an actual, playable appearance in Angry Birds Transformers until updates later on. They are the counterparts of Bluestreak, Prowl, Smokescreen, and Beachcomber.

Bluestreak's In-Game Description:

Here's a question that's puzzled the world's scholars for years - what happens if you give the Blues control of a giant robot body? Now they've teamed up with Bluestreak the Blues have access to limbs, lasers, and missiles.

''Bluestreak is renowned for his pinpoint sharp-shooting skills, but the Blues have more of a 'fire at everything then keep firing then fire some more' attitude Still, they get the job done - they're having so much fun blasting stuff that they don't notice they're in any danger! Optimus Prime has tried telling them off but it doesn't work - only one of Heatwave's intense stares can get them to obey orders.''

Prowl's In-Game Description:

''While some of the Angry Birds and Transformers team-ups work well together, the mix of Prowls' intense logic and the Blues' freewheeling fun has been... complicated. Prowl wants to plan everything carefully, but the Blues - they don't really 'do' planning! In the end, it was decided that if the Blues want to have fun then it's only logical for Prowl to join in. Prowl supports Optimus by devising plans and strategies.''

''Recently, his planning has become more difficult for Prowl. When a long strategy session means all three of your heads fall asleep from boredom it's hard to concentrate over the snoring! Prowl is all about the power of three! Three Blues, three cluster bombs, and clip size of three! The bombs fire quickly, so you can use them to snipe at moving enemies! The clusters will come out thick and fast! Don't expect to be able to predict where they fall - Aim for the center of something big and let the splash damage take care of the rest.''

Smokescreen's In-Game Description:

''Smokescreen, like The Blues, Jay, Jake and Jim are young and eager and always look up to Optimus. All too ready to become a great warrior, maybe even a Prime someday. They're always out to impress Red, even at their own risk. Maybe that explains what happened to their eyebrows! The Blues are the pranksters of the flock who love nothing more than playing tricks and getting up to mischief. The phase shifter is effective at both pranks and combat. Being able to travel through walls has its advantages, much to Ratchet ' s annoyance. "SMOKESCREEEEEEEEEEEEEEN". When caught, they quickly show those helpless puppy eyes and then it's impossible to stay mad at them! Ahhhhhhhhh, so cute.''

 

Beachcomber's In-Game Description:

''Peace, love, and freedom are all traits the Autobirds aspire to. Beachcomber tries to embody these ideas. However sometimes you must fight for what you believe in. Although, seeing the aftermath and destruction can sicken him to his spark.''

''As for The Blues, their youth and childish nature comes out when surfing and skidding around in their new shiny dune buggy chassis to cover others in sand. Which gets everywhere! EVERYWHERE! It is unknown what happened to their parents, but in The Flock with Matilda they've got a gentle mother figure, Red a father figure and Silver as a fellow young prankster.''

Gameplay
Bluestreak's gameplay description: ''Bluestreak's weapon should be familiar to fans of the Blues! Upon impact, the bomb splits into three smaller clusters! The initial impact won't do much damage, so aim where the smaller cluster bombs can hit surrounding objects - these pack a punch and should be enough to shatter even the strongest tower!''

Prowl/Major Prowl's gameplay description: ''Prowl is all about the power of three! Three Blues, three cluster bombs, and clip size of three! The bombs fire quickly, so you can use them to snipe at moving enemies! The clusters will come out thick and fast! Don't expect to be able to predict where they fall - aim for the center of something big and let the splash damage take care of the rest.''

Beachcomber's gameplay description: ''Beachcomber is an amusingly well- armed vehicle for such a peace-loving Autobird. In an attempt to avoid collateral damage, he now resorts to using sand to annoy and defeat his enemies.''

Angry Birds POP!
The Blues first appeared in ''Angry Birds POP! ''as limited edition characters, and have since been occasionally brought into the game for special events. As limited edition characters, they'd be playable for any section of the game by player choice.

They are so far the only members of the original flock to not be permanent characters in the game.

The Blues take on their Angry Birds Toons appearance in the game, and use computer animation, allowing for them to be much more lively and animated.

Gameplay
Each character in the game has its unique bubble boost, and each character's bubble has a different ability. The Blues' ability is entitled to the Triple Threat or otherwise known as the Triple Pop. When the bubble is fired, it will disperse into 3, popping bubbles in three different areas. Their bubble is neon blue with three glowing orbs inside of it.

Angry Birds Fight!
Jay, Jake, and Jim appear in ''Angry Birds Fight! ''as one of the 6 playable characters of the game. Other than being playable characters, they also appear on the matching board as matchable icons.

The Blues often appear in promotional material and trailers for the game.

Certain parts of the game use computer animation, such as the player's customizable characters. The Blues use computer animation during battles and in some other parts of the game. They use their Toons animation, and while other games base their characters off this appearance, ''Fight! ''takes its character animation straight from the series.

As of August 1st, 2017, the game has been discontinued and taken down from the Play and App stores, and servers have since been shut down.

Gameplay
The game wouldn't include much gameplay with the birds, but more so the player's objective was to match rows of 3 of the birds' icons, which would be placed all over a matching board. Matching rows of 4 or more would activate that bird's specific ability. If 4 of the Blues' icons were matched, then they'd paint random panels on the board of the opponent.

Once the round is over, the two battling players would begin fighting, and the player's success was determined entirely by how many points he/she made.

Angry Birds 2
Jay, Jake, and Jim appear in Angry Birds 2 as one of the 11 playable characters of the game and are the secondary characters to be introduced in the game.

The game's playable characters can be upgraded if the player earns enough feathers to fill up their meter. Blue feathers, which upgrade the Blues, can be found in treasure chests or as rewards if the player wins in tournament rounds/meet certain objectives. Upgrading characters allow them to rack up more points, making 3-starring levels easier and makes getting cards easier.

The game uses computer animation for the second time in a slingshot game since Angry Birds Stella, so the Blues make much more pronounced expressions and appear much more lively.

The Blues take on their Toons counterparts, and also are given the same voices used in the animation series.

Gameplay
The Blues once again have the same ability to split into three and are once again good at breaking through the glass.

Since the game utilizes the card feature, the player can use the Blues as he/she likes throughout the level provided that they are in the player's deck. It is suggested that they are used obviously on glass structures, but also when multiple pigs are located in different areas, or perhaps propped by balloons.

Angry Birds Ace Fighter
Jay, Jake, and Jim appear in Angry Birds Ace Fighter as main and playable characters. They appear in promotional material and trailers for the game.

Jay, Jake and Jim's Description In-Game:

''The Blues are the naughtiest birds in the flock. They are cheerful, fear nothing and are always playing pranks and causing general mayhem.''

Rovio announced that the game would be discontinuing due to adjustment of structure platform, as well as an expired contract with ''Siamgame. ''On September 6th, 2016, the game was removed from the Play and App stores and recharge was turned off, making the game nearly impossible. On October, 10th, servers were shut down.

Gameplay
The game is based on a "Shoot Em Up" style, with the player placed at the bottom of the screen as enemies fly down from the top of the screen.

Not much is known about the Blues role in the game. It is known that they were one of four playable characters and could be paired with different kinds of planes.

Angry Birds Blast!/Angry Birds Island
Jay, Jake, and Jim appear in ''Angry Birds Blast! ''as one of the six characters of the game, but none are playable characters in the game. They appear in promotional material and trailers for the game.

Every character has his/her own unique quest, and the Blues' quest reads the following:

"Find some little buddies and have a party!"

All the player has to do to fill the objective is play levels with hatchlings on them, and earn 3 hatchlings.

The Blues take on their Toons appearance in multiple areas of the game, but the blue birds encased inside of the balloons take on a slightly different, more exaggerated appearance.

Gameplay
The game's objective is for the player to pop groups of 2 or more balloons to free the birds inside. Multiple blue birds can be found in the blue balloons.

Other than this, there is not much direct gameplay involved with the birds, and the game is based entirely on the player.

Angry Birds Holiday
The Blues did not have a major part in this game, with most of the focus being on Matilda, who guided the player through the game. They do have a purchasable item with in-game currency and can be unlocked if the player buys the item.

The game was never released outside of soft launch, and Rovio officially announced that the game stopped development and it was shut down as of December 31st, 2016.

Gameplay
As the game was never given a worldwide release, not much is known about it. It is known that the Blues owned the Yard Sale item, and if the player purchased the item they would unlock the Blues.

Angry Birds Evolution
The Blues are event only characters and do not appear in the story or any chapters of the game. However, other blue birds can be customized and upgraded to the player's preference.

In this game, Jay appears piloting The Angromedon. He has three evolutions and is available in the Valentine's Day Event (The Valentine's Day The Earth Stood Still )

Angry Birds Match
The Blues are unlocked in the first chapter, Beach Day. They are the first characters to be unlocked and are unlocked in this order; Jay, Jake and then Jim. They appear as assisting characters and aren't playable of any sort.

They also often appear in promotional material as they are the main characters of the game.

Their appearances are also slightly changed.

Angry Birds POP Blast
Jay, Jake and Jim appear in the game as playable characters that are unlocked together after obtaining 100 points. They have a new power-up. The Blues, like all of the characters, use their movie design and outlined sprites that were made to look like a cartoon. Their animations are similar to the ones from the first game. However, all of them have the same eye colour as Jay, blue.

They are also introduced as artwork characters, which they often appear. They were added in a updated.

Gameplay
The Blues are unlocked by obtaining 100 points at the Piñata. They can appear at any level where the player uses them, which the player has to assist them in popping bubbles once again, but this time, it's in any objective.

When their bar is full, they will active their ability, which is launching three balls that destroy a bit of bubbles.

They can be chosen along with any pig.

Angry Birds Dream Blast
The Blues appear as minor characters in Angry Birds Dream Blast only appearing in events.

Angry Birds Reloaded
Jay, Jake and Jim appear as playable characters in Angry Birds Reloaded.

Gameplay
The Blues are the same as in previous slingshot games. When launched, if the player taps them, they will split into 3. They are very strong against glass, but weak against other materials.

=Chuck=

Angry Birds
Chuck makes his debut in the original Angry Birds game as the third bird introduced and as a member of the core flock. He first appeared in "Poached Eggs 1-16", where he then on appeared in all of the following themes as a playable character (excluding The Big Setup, where he was encaged by the pigs.

Chuck also saves Hal in Theme 6-4, where the player must use solely Chuck to pop all the pigs in the level to save Hal, who was encaged by the Bad Piggies.

In a very early version of Angry Birds, Chuck was shown to be a lot more like Red, having the same feathers, eyebrows, and beak. The only real distinction between the two was Chuck's color and shape. This Chuck was in gameplay trailers, showing that this was initially the design for Chuck that Rovio intended to release. However, Chuck's design was changed to be more unique, and this newer design was used when the game was first released. However, Chuck's old design was still used in the cutscenes (though it has since been fixed to his newer appearance).

Gameplay
Chuck can increase speed rapidly when the player taps the screen. This makes him a much more versatile character, as he can change direction in case the player shoots a bit off, or reach much farther or higher destinations. In this way, he is often used to access Golden Eggs that are sometimes hidden off-screen.

Chuck 's strengths and weaknesses are seen here.

Chuck cannot break through glass very well, smashing one shard of it and then stopping in his tracks. This is a bit strange, as glass is weaker than wood in the game. However, it is known that Chuck is designed to be effective in destroying wood, so this may explain why.

Angry Birds Seasons
Chuck appeared from the very start of the game when it was first known as Angry Birds Halloween. After his first appearance in "Trick or Treat", he is a playable character in all of the themes that follow.

Unlike other installments of the series, Seasons keeps the characters' original designs, so Chuck's sprites are not updated as they eventually were in the original game.

Chuck has unlockable costumes like all of the other characters. However, a very noteworthy one is his Pikachu costume, based on the respective character of the Pokémon series.

It is also notable that very early on in the game, when it was still known as Angry Birds Halloween, Chuck used his red-like design that previously appeared in cutscenes for the original Angry Birds game. Of course, this design was only used in the early cutscenes for "Trick or Treat", and has since been removed.

A pig dressed as Chuck appears in the cover art for Haunted Hogs.

Chuck often appears in animations and promotions for the game.

Gameplay
Chuck has the same ability that he does in the original game and is still an effective wood breaker. No changes are made to his speed, size, or strength.

In the Piglantis theme, Chuck's ability goes pretty effective with water. If his ability is activated in the water, he will increase speed in the direction he is going, so if he is still sinking, he will shoot even further into the water. If he is beginning to rise and his ability is activated, then he can shoot out of the water at great speed and can destroy the structures above him somewhat effectively.

Angry Birds Rio
Chuck, Red, Jay, Jake, and Jim are all kidnapped by the smugglers and taken to the Smuggler's Den in Rio, where they are all put in a room filled with captive, rare birds. They realize they are being sold for profit, and see the abused birds around them. This puts them into a rage, and because of their strength and anger, they manage to break out of the cage. This then begins the events of the game.

Chuck is once again the third bird to be introduced, and after his introduction level, he is a playable character in all of the themes that follow.

Once they defeat Nigel and free all the captive birds, Chuck and the rest of the flock manage to hijack the plane and fly back to Piggy Island, where they come back just in time to save the eggs from being stolen by the pigs once again.

Chuck then travels back to Rio with his flock to visit their friends, Blu and Jewel. This then starts the Rio 2 segment.

Like all the other characters Chuck receives a design change in this segment, taking on his Toons animation style. Changes are made in the position of his face, slight adjustments are made to his feathers, and he is given a slightly lighter hue in color. He also receives different outlines and better shading.

On Feburary 3, 2020, they announced the game along with Angry Birds Star Wars and Angry Birds Star Wars II to be deleted and discontinued.

Gameplay
Chuck has the same ability that he does in the previous two installments, having not much change when it comes to speed, strength or size. His battle cries, launch sounds, and corpse noises are the same.

Notably, caged birds/dolphins and marmosets are much stronger than the easily popped pigs, so Chuck cannot destroy the targets as easily as he can when it comes to pigs.

In boss battles, Chuck is a very useful character to have. He can access farther places that hold TNT, stone spheres, or heavy structures that can fall onto the boss. He can also be used to directly hit the boss, as he can change the speed in case the boss jumps/flies in a different direction.

In Rocket Rumble's bonus levels, he appears riding a big purple firework rocket and he wears pilot glasses. When he is launched, he starts to spin around while flying and he will fly very fast to the direction that his firework is pointing at. When the screen is tapped, the firework wrecks everything it hits and will finally explode in the same way as a normal firework does.

Angry Birds Friends
Chuck makes a comeback in Angry Birds Friends, as the deuteragonist once again. He appears in both of the history and tournament levels. Unlike the other birds, guest characters replace Chuck in some of the tournaments, such as Hockey Bird and Shakira.

Gameplay
Chuck has the same ability that he does in the previous two installments, having not much change when it comes to speed, strength or size. His battle cries, launch sounds, and corpse noises were the same. He had separate new sounds in-game once but were removed in an update for the Facebook version.

Like all of the characters (except for Bubbles, as his design doesn't change as much in Toons), Chuck received a new design based on his Toons design in an update with new sprites. In another update, he got new sounds which are his Toons sounds.

In the April 20th, 2017 Weekly Tournament, there was a bonus where Chuck would give more points, giving a hint about the Star Cup, in which he can get more feathers and give more points.

Freddie Mercury
He once dressed up as Freddie Mercury on the Freddie For A Day Tournament, which he wears a crown, a tank top and has a mustache and chest hair

He didn't appear as a playable character in the tournament but appeared in the level select screen along with the other birds.

Angry Birds Space
Chuck, along with a few other birds in the flock, was first teased in a new project for Rovio at the beginning of 2012. This was soon introduced to be the next installment of the series, Angry Birds Space. Chuck, along with the other birds, were featured with superhero costumes based on comic book characters.

The game's story begins with Chuck and the other birds taking care of the eggs, when a wormhole opens up in the sky, with Ice Bird shooting out with his eggsteroid. A robotic arm follows shortly after, and kidnaps the eggsteroid, along with the flock's eggs. They sling themselves into the portal to chase after the eggs. Through the vortex, they are transformed into their space counterparts. They fly out into the final frontier, beginning the events of the game.

Chuck is now known as Lazer Bird, based on the comic book character Cyclops. He now has goggles, a flowing red cape, and a spiky top feather. His most notable difference is his color change, now being purple rather than yellow. In gameplay, Lazer Bird previously had a tail feather resembling his top feather but was eventually replaced with his cape. This is the first time that Chuck is the fourth bird introduced, rather than the third. He swaps places with Bomb.

Gameplay
Lazer Bird can fly into whatever direction the player taps to, which is the first time Chuck has ever received an ability change. This makes him an extremely useful character to have, as he can quite literally go anywhere the player desires.

When his ability is activated, he will not be affected by gravitational fields or zero-gravity until he hits a surface.

When he changes direction, he increases speed, giving him more strength.

His strengths and weaknesses are pretty much the same as Chuck's. He cannot destroy glass very well, can destroy multiple shards of wood, and cannot destroy stone.

It is notable that the longer the distance Lazer Bird has to travel, the slower and weaker he becomes. The player should keep this in mind, as if he has to travel all the way across the level, he will not be able to destroy anything.

Bad Piggies
Chuck appears in Bad Piggies a bit into the game, through the Flight in the Night episode. Though he did not appear when the episode was first released, he appears in the second and third chapters as an enemy, and then on appears often as a hazard to the player.

This is the first time in any Angry Birds game that Chuck was, rather than being introduced from the very start, included through updates.

Chuck's design is slightly changed; his outlining and shading is given more quality, rather than the basic colors of the other games. His animation is also more vivid and uses the current design of the original game. All of his sprites are just modified versions of the "Chrome" models.

Gameplay
Levels with Chuck included will have him as a hazard/enemy, asleep next to a nearby slingshot. If the player makes too much noise near him, he will wake up and sling himself on the slingshot to attack Ross. He is the strongest out of the three enemy birds (the other two being Red and the Blues), and can actually break through wood and effectively damage the player's vehicle. Thus, the player should include powerful motors and objects if they want to easily escape Chuck.

He uses his original ability to increase speed, making him the only enemy bird that can change direction through his speed. The player should keep this in mind, and be even more careful when playing levels involving Chuck.

Han Solo
Chuck appears as the counterpart of Han Solo, a main character in the original Star Wars trilogy.

Cocky but charming, "Chuck Ham Solo" is a smuggler who associates himself with criminals, often getting himself into trouble. He is best friends with the Wookie "Terebacca", and the two own the Mighty Millennium Falcon together.

The two only get involved with Skywalker and Obi-Wan to gain more money, but Solo ends up meeting his romantic interest, Princess Stella Organa through the mission.

He is later on punished by being frozen in carbonite and is stowed away in Jabba the Hutt's lair. He is then saved by Stella.

Gameplay
Once again, Chuck is given a different ability than his original. Solo uses his blaster and shoots it 3 times towards whichever direction the player taps.

These lasers can destroy glass and wood and will bounce off of metal, damaging it in the process. Once they hit an object they can destroy, they will diminish.

Players can use this bouncing skill to hit covered targets, so he/she should keep strategy in mind when using this bird.

In the Moon of Endor episode, Solo gets an ability upgrade, and can now fire blue, more powerful lasers. Once the player unlocks this feature, it can be used in all levels of the game, including previous ones, and cannot be removed.

The lasers can break through more blocks of wood and glass without flickering out and can damage metal more effectively. However, this may come to a slight disadvantage if the player wants to send lasers to a certain location they cannot reach.

It is also notable that the player can activate abilities for a short period of time after the character hits a surface.

Lando Calrissian
Chuck is also the counterpart of Lando Calrissian, who first appeared in the Cloud City update for the game. (only appearing in the cutscenes for this section)

However, in v1.3.0, he becomes a playable and main character, appearing first in level 4-21 and in the themes that followed.

Lando was never part of the merchandising line for Angry Birds Star Wars, though he did receive a plush toy very later on with the Star Wars II portion. (though it was never released)

Lando is very charming, which he used to his advantage to become successful. He is both a smuggler and gambler, but has a rich heart. After betraying the flock and causing the carbonation of Han Solo, he betrays the Pork Side and becomes an ally of the birds.

Gameplay
As Han was not available as a playable character until Leia thawed him from the carbonite, Lando took the place of him in terms of his ability. Lando has a similar ability to Han, having his own laser blaster. However, Lando's ability is slightly different as his lasers disperse into 3 when they are shot. This allows for Lando to hit multiple different abilities rather than one.

The same logic applies when it comes to lasers; it will be able to destroy glass and wood, but will bounce off of metal.

Later on in the game, Lando receives an ability upgrade and his lasers are turned from red into blue, making them stronger.

Captain Panaka
Chuck appears as the counterpart of Captain Panaka, a character in the prequels of the Star Wars universe.

Panaka is the head of security on the planet Naboo, whose job is to keep Padme safe.

Though he appears as a captive in the Naboo Invasion theme, he does not become a playable character until the Battle of Naboo episode. After this, he becomes a playable character to exclusively the bird side levels. He is introduced in level B3-7. His beak, eyes, and eyebrows look similar to Bomb.

Gameplay
Panaka has his blaster, which can shoot a total of 6 lasers, in groups of 3. He will shoot towards wherever the screen is tapped, sending out 3 lasers that disperse into 3 directions twice.

The same logic applies when it comes to lasers. They will be able to cut through and damage glass and wood and will bounce off of metal objects.

Like all of the other characters in the game, Panaka has his level in the Rewards Chapter, which can be unlocked if the player earns enough points while playing as him.

Han Solo
Han appears as a playable character but solely as a power-up. He cannot be found in any of the story levels of the game but can be purchased in the store with in-game currency. The player can then use Han in any of the bird side levels.

Gameplay
Han has the same ability that he has in the original game.

Han, like all of the other characters, has his bonus level in the Rewards Chapter, which can be unlocked by racking up a certain amount of points.

Lando Calrissian
Lando appears as a playable character but solely as a power-up. He cannot be found in any of the story levels of the game but can be purchased in the store with in-game currency. The player can then use Lando in any of the bird side levels.

Gameplay
Lando has the same ability that he has in the original game.

Lando, like all of the other characters, has his bonus level in the Rewards Chapter, which can be unlocked by racking up a certain amount of points.

Kanan Jarrus
Chuck appears as the counterpart of Kanan Jarrus. Jarrus, a character part of the Rebels TV series, was introduced to the game along with several other characters as part of the Rebels theme.

While not part of the actual pack of levels (which takes place in Lothal), he can be bought as a power-up and can be used in the bird side portions of any of the game's levels. Like all of the other characters, he has a bonus level in the Rewards Chapter that can be unlocked by racking up a certain amount of points while playing as him.

Though he is not a playable character in the theme, he still appears on the front cover of the episode.

Gameplay
Chuck has an ability-based off his original in this game, an occasion that happens very rarely to any of the characters of the game. However, now he can fly to wherever the screen is tapped at extreme speed. He is extremely strong and should be used very wisely.

A slight disadvantage to his ability, however, is that he's not very strong once he loses his speed. By zipping quickly through structures, it also makes it hard to do total destruction, as at times the structure does not topple over and instead begins to clutter up because of the sudden space created.

Kanan also appears as a boss in the Pork Side portion of the theme.

Angry Birds Go!
Chuck appears as the very last character of the game to be introduced, appearing in Stunt as a boss to defeat. After the player unlocks Chuck in the game, they can use Chuck in any of the levels as they please. (provided that the player has enough energy)

Like all of the other characters of the game, Chuck uses a 3D model for the game. His appearance is based on his Toons animation style and has the same voice used in the series. Chuck is more versatile because of his newer 3D model, allowing him to be much more expressive.

Chuck also appeared as a limited edition version of the legendary racer Ayrton Senna, who was just a costumed version of Chuck.

Gameplay
Chuck is yet the fastest character in the entire game, surpassing the speed of Red, The Blues, or any other character whose ability is based on a boost. In the game, it may not seem as if Chuck is progressing that quickly when the player activates his ability but actually slows down the time, which is why it seems as if he is not progressing in speed.

In boss battles, he can leave wheel boosts behind for the player.

Since the update v2.0, Chuck is playable after the player receives at least one star in Campaign level 11, race 5.

Ayrton Senna's ability is just a slightly faster version of Chuck's. (he is no longer playable as of update v2.0 though.)

Angry Birds Epic
Chuck appears in Angry Birds Epic as the second character to be introduced. Once Red frees Chuck from captivity by the pigs, he becomes one of the 5 playable characters in the story mode.

Chuck, like all of the other characters, can be upgraded and changed to the player's preference with the resources he/she has.

Gameplay
Main Article: Epic Characters Normal= Imprisoned=

Angry Birds Transformers
Chuck appears in Angry Birds Transformers representing the characters Bumblebee (who is featured in his regular high-octane, and energon counterparts) Rodimus, Cliffjumper and Cosmos. Chuck appears often in promotional material for the game as well as trailers. He also received merchandising, which included Telepod toys that could be connected into the game.

Bumblebee
''Being zapped by the EggSpark transformed more than just Chuck's body. He used to be ultra-competitive and desperately striving to prove his skills, but now he prefers to help others show their own powers.''

Naturally, this change has confused the other Autobirds - they're just waiting for him to suddenly snap and do something crazy!

''As one of the smallest scout Autobirds, Bumblebee often finds himself in trouble. He tries his best, but for some reason that he can't figure out, his habit of acting without thinking often gets him into tricky situations.''

''But don't worry - his bravery, smarts, and speed haven't let him down yet! He loves a good adventure.''

Rodimus
Fast, headstrong and impatient, Rodimus is the perfect match to be mashed up with Chuck!

''Rodimus can't stand to be in one place for too long, which is probably why it took the Autobots so long to find him! As soon as they located where he was, he'd moved on to smash pigs somewhere else!''

''At first glance, Rodimus might seem immature, but he's more than capable of stepping up to the plate and leading the Autobots if Optimus Prime is otherwise engaged. Life as a Prime is stressful though, so he's more than happy to let Optimus take the lead whenever he returns.''

Gameplay
Bumblebee's Gameplay Description:

''Bumblebee's weapon is rapid firing but low damage, making it great at taking out wooden tower blocks, but poor at tougher enemies and stone blocks. Best to transform and use his extreme speed to outrun bigger threats.''

He's also great against flying and falling pigs, and at shooting down incoming missiles.

High Octane Bumblebee is a variant character, so completing events will earn many more coins but failing them will result in none.

Rodimus' Gameplay Description:

''Rodimus' gun reflects his fiery personality. Great balls of fire are flung towards the target. These fireballs don't do much initial damage but will burn over time. Use this to your advantage - move onto the next target while the first is still burning!''

''Make sure to dodge whatever is being shot back! Things that are on fire can still be a threat.''

Angry Birds POP!
Chuck first appeared in the game as a limited edition character and was only available for a short period of time. Here, he was an option as a playable character in all of the levels of the game.

Later on, when the game was added onto the Angry Birds series rather than an attachment to Stella, the characters were changed (excluding Stella) to members of Red's flock. Chuck appears in the Piggy in the Middle levels of the game, replacing Dahlia.

Gameplay
In the Piggy in the Middle Level, the player must use bubbles to destroy the objects surrounding a pig to beat the level.

When Chuck was a limited edition character, his own special ability bubble was the Flash Pop, which popped all of the bubbles and objects in a column.

However, when he was introduced as a permanent character his ability was changed to replace Dahlia's, whose pop was the ''Color Pop. The Color Pop can'' pop all of the bubbles of the color that it touches.

Angry Birds Fight!
Chuck appeared in Angry Birds Fight! as a main character. He was one of the 6 playable characters that the player could choose from. Other than being a playable character, Chuck also appears on the matching board as an icon.

Chuck appeared often in promotional material and trailers for the game.

Certain parts of the game are in computer animation, including the player's customizable characters. Chuck's animation is taken directly out of the Angry Birds Toons series.

Like all of the other characters, Chuck could be customized to the player's preference, with costumes and weapons that could be purchased with in-game currency.

As of August 1st, 2017, the game has been discontinued and removed from the Play and App stores, and the servers have since been shut down.

Gameplay
The game wouldn't include direct gameplay with the birds, but rather a tile-matching objective. Matching 3 of the bird's icons would pop the birds out, matching 4 of the icons would activate that specific bird's ability. If 4 of Chuck's icons were matched, he would create horizontal lines, stopping the opponent from matching.

At the end of the round, the two players would begin fighting, and the one that made the most points during the round would win the battle.

Angry Birds 2
Chuck appears in Angry Birds 2 as a main and playable character of the game. Once Chuck is unlocked, the player receives his character card, which can be used in any of the levels.

The game uses computer animation for the birds and pigs, which had never happened before. (the games prior used set sprites for the birds when they were launched, idle, squawking, etc.) Chuck appears in his Angry Birds Toons animation style, as well as the same voice used in the series.

Gameplay
Chuck has the same ability to increase in speed that he has in the original game.

Chuck is much faster in this game, zipping by in a nearly straight line until he hits a structure. However, when his ability is activated he can still be affected by fans and other things that may alter his direction.

He is also much stronger when it comes to destroying wood, and can shred through entire wood structures with ease. However, he is still very weak when it comes to destroying glass and stone, at times not even managing to knock down smaller glass/stone structures due to this weakness.

When the player is aiming Chuck, wooden objects will be highlighted, indicating that that is the material Chuck is best at destroying.

Like all of the other characters, Chuck's card can be upgraded with feathers. He also has hats that can be purchased with black orbs. These factors along with the slingshot level affect his score multiplier.

Angry Birds Action!
Chuck appears in ''Angry Birds Action! ''as a main and playable character. He appeared for the very first time (in an Angry Birds game) in his movie animation style, which prominently includes his arms and legs.

He is the third character out of four in total to be unlocked.

The game is based on 3D animation, so Chuck along with all of the other characters use 3D character models.

Gameplay
The game is based off a puzzle-pinball genre, and there are certain objectives that each level can have to complete the level.

The player uses Chuck by pointing him at a target and shooting, and Chuck will then hit and bounce off of targets until he runs out of speed.

Chuck is much faster than all of the other birds but is not as strong as the rest.

Like all of the other characters, as Chuck levels up he will receive special boosts. In his bronze stage, Chuck has the Time Freeze boost. In his silver stage, he has the Speed boost. In his gold stage, he receives an extra move.

Angry Birds Ace Fighter
Chuck appeared in Angry Birds Ace Fighter as a main and playable character. He appears in promotional material and trailers for the game.

Chuck's Description In-Game:

''A bird of broad interests and insight. Indeed, some would even call him a true visionary. The problem is that there's so much going on in that bird brain of his that he has trouble focusing on one thing. He's liable to do something then instantly change his mind when thought it through.''

Rovio announced that the game would be shutting down due to adjustment of structure platform, as well as an expired contract with Siamgame. On September 6th, 2016, the game was removed from the App and Play stores and recharge was turned off, making the game nearly impossible. On October 10th, the servers were shut down.

Gameplay
The game is based on a "shoot-em-up" style, with the player placed at the bottom of the screen as enemies fly down from above. Not much is known about Chuck's role specifically in the game. It is known that he was one of four playable characters, and could be paired with different kinds of planes.

Angry Birds Blast!/Angry Birds Island
Chuck appears in ''Angry Birds Blast! ''as a main character, but not a playable character. (as none of the characters are) He appears in promotional material and trailers for the game.

Every character has his/her own unique quest, and Chuck's is to "look for disciples". The player has to beat a level with a pink hatchling and a level with a purple hatchling on it to complete the quest.

Chuck appears in multiple parts of the game in his Angry Birds Toons animation style, but the Chucks encased inside of the balloons appear slightly different, taking on more exaggerated appearances.

Gameplay
The player's objective in the game is to pop 2 or more groupings of the same balloons. Multiple Chucks can be found in yellow-colored balloons.

Other than this, there is not much direct gameplay with the birds. Unlike past installments of the series, the gameplay is left directly with the player, no birds are used with their unique abilities.

There's also an event named Chuckenstein, which the player has to beat 3 levels in a row without losing a life to get rewards.

Angry Birds Holiday
Chuck appeared in Angry Birds Holiday as a minor character and had his own purchasable item that the player could unlock. (unlocking him as well in the process)

However, the game stopped development and was shut down as of December 31st, 2016.

Gameplay
The app was a building game, with Matilda guiding the player as he/she built a resort for tourist pigs to visit. Some items could be unlocked with in-game currency, Chuck's item being the Animal Watch.

Not much is known about the gameplay otherwise, as the app was never given a worldwide release.

Angry Birds Evolution
Chuck formerly only appeared as an event-exclusive character, but in recent updates, he is the first bird to be unlocked. He even helps the player at the beginning and is an important character in the storyline.

Chuck appears in the game as a booster and main character. Like all of the characters in-game, he uses a modified version of his Movie design. His gameplay is the following:

Gameplay
When the player destroys 5 objects arranged as 3 horizontal and 2 vertical in a T line, Chuck appears. If he is tapped, he will go to four sides: Front, back, left and right.

Angry Birds Dream Blast
Chuck appears in the game as a booster and deuteragonist once again. Unlike all previous games, Chuck is a Hatchling in this game, like all of the other characters. He appears in the level background, sleeping on a chained cloud. He also appears when the player beats a level, jumping and watching the last bubbles be popped and other occurrences.

Gameplay
If the player merges two Red's, Chuck will appear. The bigger the Red's are, the larger Chuck will be. If tapped, Chuck will destroy four line of bubbles in four directions: Up, down, left and righter. If there is a block near him, he will destroy or damage it with his boost.

Chuck also appears as a profile picture that the player can unlock and choose. He could be unlocked as a mission member if popcorn was collected on the movie event and as a banana in the Halloween event, as well as in other events.

Angry Birds POP Blast
Chuck appears in the game as a playable character that is unlocked after obtaining 100 points. He has a new power-up.

Chuck, like all of the characters, uses his movie design and outlined sprites that were made to look like a cartoon. His animations are similar to the ones from the first game. In the Space Race, his design is based on his one in Angry Birds Space, he is purple.

He is also introduced as an icon and artwork character, which he often appears.

Gameplay
Chuck is unlocked by obtaining 100 points at the Piñata. Chuck can appear at any level where the player uses him, which the player has to assist him in popping bubbles once again, but this time, it's in any objective.

When his bar is full, he will active his ability, which an lightning ball that destroys a chain of bubbles at a certain angle.

He can be chosen along with any pig.

The game is played like tennis, but with Angry Birds characters, Chuck is unlocked by obtaining tokens and is playable ever since then. He uses his speed boost when he has energy to do it.

Angry Birds Reloaded
Chuck appears in Angry Birds Reloaded as once again the deuteragonist and a main character. Like all of the characters in the game, he uses his Toons design.

Gameplay
Chuck has the same ability that he does in the previous installments, having not much change when it comes to speed, strength or size.

=Bomb=

Angry Birds
Bomb makes his first debut in the original game as the fourth bird introduced and as a member of the core flock. After his first appearance in Poached Eggs 2-5, he becomes a playable character in all of the following themes. (excluding The Big Setup, which was entirely based off of Hal and Terence, though you can use him as the shockwave powerup). In early versions of the game, Bomb had a white spot on his forehead. This appeared in his original plush toy, as well as promotions and animations. However, it has since been removed.

A very prominent appearance of Bomb is Short Fuse, where he is the center character. The entire episode focuses on him and his ability changes.

His voice was changed for an update.

Gameplay
Bomb is a very strong character and was considered the strongest when the game was first released. He was the only bird at the time that could effectively destroy stone himself, though Matilda's egg bombs can as well.

Bomb 's strengths and weaknesses are seen here.

Short Fuse
Main Article: Shockwave

In the theme Short Fuse, Bomb is introduced with an entirely different ability named "Shockwave", which he obtains when he fiddles with the pigs' scientific equipment. This ability is much more powerful than his original and works similarly. It can be activated when the player taps the screen or a couple of seconds after he hits a surface. When his ability is activated, he sends out a growing circle of electricity to the objects around him, damaging and forcefully pushing them away, where most of the blocks are then completely obliterated. Rather than his original ability, which just breaks the closest bricks, the shockwave damages the blocks, racking up the players' scores significantly higher.

Though the shockwave ability is exclusive to the theme, it can be used as a powerup in all themes of the game. (The player will need to either spend coins, purchase or watch advertisements to get the powerup.)

Angry Birds Seasons
Bomb appears from the very start of the game when it was first known as Angry Birds Halloween. After his first appearance in Trick or Treat, he is then on a playable character in all of the themes that follow.

Unlike all of the other installments of the Angry Birds series, Seasons keeps the characters' original designs, so Bomb is in his classic appearance.

Once again, Bomb's spot on his forehead is removed. However, just like Chuck's Red-like appearance, Bomb can be seen with his spot in multiple promotions for the original Angry Birds Halloween game. This includes the trailer and early cutscenes for the game which has since been removed. However, it has been proved through these cutscenes that Bomb's spot was light being shined off of him, as the spot appears in a different part of his body depending on the way he is positioned. Because of this, it can be assumed that the spot was removed because Rovio wanted Bomb to be more bird-like with feathers, rather than made like an actual bomb.

Like all of the other characters, Bomb has costumes that can be unlocked by the player.

Bomb, like all the other characters, can at times appear as the main character in specific themes for the game. (This happened in Ham Dunk, where he appeared in the cover art alongside Bubbles and Jay, Jake, and Jim.)

The Shockwave power-up is back in Angry Birds Seasons. It works completely similar to how it works in the Classic Angry Birds game. However in the paid Ham Dunk levels, the power-up is converted into the Statefarm Bomb power-up, which's fuse and electric rays are red instead of blue.

Gameplay
Bomb has the same ability to explode as before, and not much is changed about his size, strength, or speed.

In water-themed levels, Bomb reacts pretty normally to water logic. However, it can be noted that if he hits a structure the second he resurfaces, the player should instantly activate his ability, as once he hits the blocks he will bounce off of them and go back into the water.

Angry Birds Rio
Bomb does not appear early on in the game, but rather in the Beach Volley theme. He is not captured with Red, Chuck, Jay, Jake, and Jim, but it can be assumed that he travelled there in order to help them. This is the first time that Bomb isn't introduced when the game is first released, but through updates.

After his introduction level, he appears in all of the themes that follow.

Bomb and the other members of the flock manage to defeat Nigel and free all of the rare birds, and hijack the plane and go back to Piggy Island, where they arrive just in time to save the eggs from being stolen by the pigs once again.

Bomb and the other birds later on travel back to Rio to visit their friends Blu and Jewel, beginning the Rio 2 segment.

In this portion of levels, Bomb recieves a different design like all the other characters. He is modeled after his Toons appearance, recieving slightly changed features in his beak, eyes, and eyebrows, and gets better shading and different outlining.

Gameplay
Bomb bears the same ability that he has in the previous two installments. No changes are made to his speed, strength, or size.

High Dive introduced water features to Rio, and work the same way that they do in Piglantis for Bomb.

It is notable that caged birds/dolphins and marmosets are much more tougher than the poppable pigs, so Bomb cannot destroy the targets as easily as he can with the pigs.

If the player activates his ability near Luis in Beach Volley, then the dog will fly off into the air, and can destroy blocks and enemies with ease. This is a good strategy to use during the level, but the player must note that he will go after the beachballs, not the structures.

Angry Birds Friends
Bomb appears as a playable character in Angry Birds Friends.

Gameplay
Bomb is the same as in previous slingshot games. When launched, if the player taps him, he will explode. He is very strong against stone, glass and wood. His explosion is very strong against materials and has an strong shockwave.

In the Star Cup, he can be leveled up by obtaining feathers.

Bomb also appeared purchasable in the Bird-O-Matic. He can wear any accessory and can be chosen as the player's avatar.

Angry Birds Space
Bomb, along with a few other birds, was teased in early 2012 as part of a new project. This soon revealed to be Angry Birds Space, the fourth installment of the series. Bomb appeared with the other birds in their space counterparts, based on comic book characters.

In the game's story, Bomb and the other birds were taking care of the eggs when suddenly, a portal opened up in the sky with Ice Bird and his eggsteroid flying through. Out with them came a robotic arm, grabbing the eggsteroid and the flock's eggs. They sling themselves into the portal in pursuit of the eggs and begin to change while in the portal. They shoot out of the vortex in their costumes into the final frontier, beginning the events of the game.

Bomb is known as "Firebomb" and is based on the comic book superhero Firestorm. His fuse is now lit with fire (though it is normal in-game) and his chest feathers are now red. He also wears a ring around his body, with an eggsteroid emblem on his chest.

Bomb, along with all of the other members of his flock, received promotional videos for their characters, which can be found on youtube. They also had their own Space-themed merchandise.

He has a corpse sprite that can be found if the player hacks into the game's files, but it is not used in-game.

Gameplay
Firebomb Bird has the same basic ability as the regular Bomb. However, his ability is much more "firey", emitting a ring of fire around his body when he explodes.

His ability is commonly used to cause debris to fly off into structures, such as stacks of stone bricks or boulders floating in space.

If the player slings Bomb very weakly into zero-gravity, then he will slowly decrease in speed, stop, and disintegrate without exploding.

Bad Piggies
Bomb makes a cameo in Flight in the Night, where he appears asleep next to Red in one level. Even if the player attempts to land near him or wake him, he will not move and remain asleep. Though he appears in this level, he does not make an appearance in the rest of the levels or any of the other levels as an enemy.

Angry Birds Star Wars
Bomb is the in-game counterpart of Obi-Wan Kenobi, the main character in the original and prequel trilogies of the Star Wars universe.

Known as "Obi-Wan Kaboomi", he saves Red Skywalker and plans to teach him the ways of the force. They set out to save Princess Stella Organa with the help of Chuck "Ham" Solo and Terebacca the Wookie. He battles with Darth Vader while they are on the Death Star, and though canonically in the original storyline, Kenobi does die here, Bomb remains a playable character. (though he does eventually become a ghost at the end of the game)

He and the other characters received character promotional videos that can be found on YouTube, along with plush toys and merchandise.

Gameplay
For the first time, Bomb has a new different ability than his exploding power in the original games. Kaboomi uses the light side of the force to directional push away any objects nearby him in whichever direction the player taps on.

Kaboomi himself is not very strong, destroying a few to a couple of bricks.

This is the first time Bomb's corpse sprite can be seen in-game.

In Death Star level 2-25, Kaboomi receives an upgrade, and his force ability is made even stronger than it was before. This upgrade can be used in all levels of the game including ones previous to the upgrade, and cannot be removed.

It is also notable that the birds' abilities can be used for a short period after they hit any surface so the player can use this to their advantage as they please.

Obi-Wan Kenobi
Bomb makes a major appearance as once again Obi-Wan, though much younger. After his first appearance in Naboo Invasion, he appears as a playable and main character in the themes afterward. (only on the bird side portions)

Obi-Wan appears in promotional material and trailers for the game, as well as the cover art. He also had merchandise for this younger version of him, including Telepods and a plush toy, though the plush was never released to the public.

He is also available as a power-up, though his older original counterpart is not available as both characters have the same ability.

Obi-Wan was the mentor of Anakin after Qui-Gon's death, but the two went into conflict as Anakin made his turn to the dark side.

Gameplay
Obi-Wan has the same ability to force-push the objects in front of him when the player taps the screen.

Obi-Wan also has his bonus level in the Rewards Chapter, which can be unlocked if the player makes enough points playing as him.

Mace Windu
Bomb is also the counterpart of Mace Windu in the game, a well-respected and feared Jedi in the game, as well as a valued member of the Jedi council.

Windu was first trained by Yoda, growing up to be a very skilled fighter, especially with the lightsaber. He is a very serious bird and has a very suspicious nature.

Windu is killed towards the end of the storyline of the actual prequel.

Mace Windu appears often in promotional material and trailers for the game, as well as being one of the prominently shown characters in the cover art. He also received his own merchandising, including Telepods and a plush toy. (though the plush was never released to the public)

Gameplay
Windu's ability in the game is to throw a purple lightsaber in whichever direction the screen is tapped, throwing it in a bit of an arc and having it fly back to him, sort of in the act of a boomerang.

The lightsaber can pay extreme damage and destroy glass and wood, but will not make much of a dent on metal objects.

The lightsaber will fizzle out when it comes into contact with indestructible material.

Garazeb "Zeb" Orrelios
Bomb appears as Gazareb "Zeb" Orrelios, a character in the Star Wars Rebels TV series. He was introduced to the game along with a set of other characters, all in promotion of the TV series.

Zeb was introduced in the Rebels update for the game but did not appear as a playable character in the theme. Instead, he was solely available as a power-up character and could be used in any Bird Side levels. The player was given a free amount of the character, but from there would have to purchase him through in-game currency to keep using him.

Like all of the other characters, Orrelios has his bonus level in the Reward Chapter, which can be unlocked if the player makes a certain amount of points while using him.

Gameplay
For the first time in the Star Wars series, Bomb is given an ability that is based on his original. Zeb can explode similarly to Bomb, exploding when the screen is tapped or a couple of seconds after hitting a surface. His face will even turn red like the regular Bomb.

He is also extremely strong and can use momentum to his advantage.

His explosion is much stronger than previous versions of Bomb.

Angry Birds Go!
Bomb appears in Angry Birds Go! as the second bird (3rd bird in Version 1) to be introduced in the game and is first seen in Seedway. After the player unlocks him, they can use him in any of the races as a playable character.

Like all of the other characters, Bomb receives his own 3D animation for the game. He also appears in his Angry Birds Toons animation style.

Bomb also had merchandising, having a Jenga playset as well as a Telepod figurine.

Gameplay
All of the characters have their own unique abilities in the game, and Bomb's is activated once his power-up beaker is filled. Following the trend of previous Angry Birds games, Bomb can explode, causing the birds and pigs near him to be knocked and jolted away.

While the ability may seem effective when Bomb is first unlocked, once the player unlocks stronger characters and progresses to harder levels Bomb will become less and less useful.

The ability is best used when Bomb is near other players, putting him at a disadvantage if the player is far behind other players.

Angry Birds Epic
Bomb appears as one of the 5 playable characters in the story mode and is a main character in the game. Once he is unlocked, he is a playable character for the rest of the game. (excluding a portion where he is kidnapped at one part of the game)

Bomb appears in promotional art and trailers for the game.

Bomb, like all of the other playable characters, can be customized and upgraded to the player's preference provided that they have enough resources.

Gameplay

Angry Birds Transformers
Bomb appears in Angry Birds Transformers as the characters Drift and Wheeljack. Bomb appeared in promotional art for the game as well as the comic series but didn't appear until updates later on.

Drift is part of the Hotrods squad, while Wheeljack was part of the Wreckers squad. Both characters could be unlocked through challenge events, but Drift could also be unlocked through in-app purchases.

Drift's Description In-Game:

''Drift is an ultra-focused, highly disciplined cyber-warrior. Smashing everything may work for Galvatron or Grimlock, but Drift waits patiently for the perfect moment to strike.''

''The EggSpark instilled a sense of duty and honor in the otherwise volatile Bomb, but now he won't shut up about it. While Drift vows to protect the island from the onslaught of the EggBots, his friends now have to deal with his monologues on mindfulness and purpose.''

''Drift can often be found meditating, searching for the perfect balance between being a merciless fighter and an all-round ultra-cool dude. He knows it's a long difficult search to find inner calm, but Drift will never give up. Has he tried looking behind the sofa?''

Wheeljack's Description In-Game:

''Generally speaking, Bomb is the most chill bird you will ever meet. However, get him worked up and he tends to go off. Despite being zapped by the eggspark, Wheeljack, like Angry Bird Bomb is still his own worst enemy. As the mechanic and inventor of the team, many of his creations explode in his face and that's if he's lucky!''

''He can be heard in his workshop inventing away with a thump, whack and a bonk, but more commonly you'll hear a hiss followed by a BOOM! Ever so often he appears from his workshop with a useful gadget like the Jackhammer, but for every success, there are multiple times when Ratchet is required to put him and his workshop back together.''

Warpath's Description In-Game:

They don't call him Warpath beacure he's gentle! Warpath is that army guy we've all seen in the movies. He has no fear and loves to fight for the Autobirds against all opponents.

Grapple's Description In-Game:

His weapon seems appropriate to his same, in that it grapples objects which can then be used to hit orther objects until they are dropped or destroyed. Try pickeg up pigs and then dropping them or grab a block and smash it into other blocks or oigs util it breaks and you grab something else to smash.

Gameplay
Drift's Gameplay Description:

''Drift's ninja-style tactic of hiding in ambush then bursting out while waving a sword has caused many a pig to suddenly need new underpants! Wait, the pigs don't wear underpants...''

''Drift fires shurikens that remain lodged in the enemy and explode after a little while. By the time they realize what hit them, you'll be long gone like the ninja robot samurai (seriously, how cool is the fact that he is all three of those at once) you are!''

Wheeljack's Gameplay Description:

''Wheeljack's latest gadget is a salvo rocket launcher. His aim isn't the best so to compensate he just fires more missiles!''

Angry Birds POP!
Bomb first appeared in the game as a limited edition character and was only available for a short period of time.

Later on, the game was changed to a regular Angry Birds game rather than an attachment to the Stella series, and the characters (excluding Stella) were changed to members of Red's flock. Bomb took what was originally Poppy's section, Beat The Clock.

Gameplay
In the Beat The Clock section, the player must assist Bomb in popping the bubbles and blocks. The player beats the level by popping all of the bubbles before the clock's countdown goes to 0.

In both of these segments, the player is given a limited amount of bubbles and if the player runs out, then the player loses the level.

Bomb, like all of the other characters, has his own special bubble that can be used when the player makes enough pairings. His pop, entitled the Explosive Pop, will pop a line of bubbles that the special bubbles are aiming at.

Angry Birds Fight!
Bomb appeared in Angry Birds Fight! as once again as the tritagonist. He was one out of the 6 playable characters the player could have chosen from and was the first character that the player was introduced to in the very beginning of the game. Other than being a playable character, he also appeared as an icon in the matching board.

Certain parts of the game used computer animation, such as the player's customizable characters. Bomb used computer animation when fighting other characters as well as some other parts of the game. He took on his Angry Birds Toons animation style and while other games had their own styles, Fight! takes character animation directly from the Toons series.

Like all of the other birds in the game, Bomb was customizable to the player's preference, and the player would be able to purchase costumes and weapons for Red with in-game currency.

As of August 1st, 2017, the game has been discontinued and removed from the Play and App stores, and the servers have since been shut down.

Gameplay
The game wouldn't include direct gameplay with the birds, but rather a tile-matching objective. Matching 3 of the bird icons would have popped the birds out, and matching 4 or more would activate the specific bird's special ability. If 4 of Bomb's icons were matched, then he would explode and cover the panel board of the opponent in ashes.

Once the round was over, the two battling players began fighting, and the player's success would entirely be based on how much points they were able to gather together.

Angry Birds 2
Bomb appears in the first official sequel to the original game, Angry Birds 2, as once again one of the protagonists. He is unlocked after obtaining a key, which can be used to unlock a character of the player's choice, meaning that Bomb can be unlocked anytime. He returns with his classic ability but he is stronger.

The game also introduced computer animation for the birds and the pigs, which had never happened with the previous slingshot installments of the series. (which used pre-set separate sprites for when the bird is idle, flies, etc) Bomb also appears in his Toons animation style, along with the voice used in the series.

Gameplay
He is strong against stone, glass or wood, he blows up after touching the screen or waiting for him to flash red and then explode. In this game, his ability is stronger, pushing blocks and structures after blowing up.

His card can be leveled up using feathers, which increases the points obtained after using him, his card will change form and change color, matching the power of it.

Angry Birds Action!
Bomb appeared in Angry Birds Action! as once again a tritagonist. He appeared for the very first time (in an Angry Birds game) in his Movie animation style, which prominently included arms and legs.

Bomb appeared in the 7th level of the game as a strong character that blows up upon the first contact with objects.

The game was based on 3D animation, so Bomb, along with all of the other characters used 3D character models.

As of October 2017, the game had been discontinued.

Gameplay
The entire game was based on a puzzle-pinball genre, and there were certain objectives that each level could have to complete the level.

The player could have used Bomb by pointing him at a target and shooting, and Bomb would then hit, bounced off targets until he ran out of speed.

Bomb's ability is exploding when he hits an object that he is targeted to hit, after that, he will stop exploding and start to bounce off other objects if any.

Like all of the other characters, as Bomb leveled up he would have received special boosts. In his bronze stage, he would have the bounce boost. In his silver stage, he would have the speed boost. In his gold stage, he receives an extra move.

Angry Birds Ace Fighter
Bomb appeared in Angry Birds Ace Fighter, as once again a playable character and tritagonist. He appeared in promotional material and trailers for the game.

Bomb's Description In-Game:

''The main goal of Bomb is to enjoy life. He has no interest in tactics, strategic meetings or even tidying his room. He only feels happy when he's setting off an explosion or making mischief''

Rovio announced that the game would be discontinuing due to adjustment of structure platform, as well as an expired contract with Siamgame. On September 6th, 2016, the game was removed from the Play and App stores and recharge was turned off, making the game nearly impossible. On October 10th, servers were shut down.

Gameplay
The gameplay was based on a Shoot em up style, with the player located at the bottom of the screen as the enemies fly downwards from the very top. Not much was known about Bomb's role specifically in the game. It was known that he was one of 4 different playable characters, and could be paired with different kinds of planes.

Angry Birds Blast!
Bomb appears in Angry Birds Blast! as one of the main characters and like most of them, he has to be freed to complete the level. His gameplay is shown below:

Gameplay
Like most of the characters, he doesn't use his ability in-game. He appears in the black blocks, which if combined with 2 or more of the same color, will free him. Sometimes he gets angry and destroys other blocks as he is freed. He also appears free sometimes.

Angry Birds Holiday
Bomb appeared in Angry Birds Holiday as a main character. He took care of the slingshot and flung pigs to other players.

However, the game stopped development and was shut down as of December 31st, 2016.

Gameplay
The app was a building game, with Matilda guiding the player as they build a paradise for pig tourists. Some items could be unlocked with in-game currency, and Bomb's item was the slingshot.

Not much is known about the gameplay otherwise, as the game was never given a worldwide release.

Angry Birds Evolution
Bomb appears in Angry Birds Evolution as an unlockable character. He is unlocked after beating the Black Crater and in events with stronger stats.

Bomb appears in the game as a booster and tritagonist. Like all of the characters in-game, he uses a modified version of his Movie design. His gameplay is the following:

Gameplay
When the player destroys 5 objects in a row, Bomb appears. If he is tapped and pushed to one side, he will destroy three lines of objects on the side. He is very strong to defeat pigs.

He also appears on icons

Angry Birds Dream Blast
Bomb appears in the game as a booster and tritagonist. Unlike other games, Bomb is a hatchling in this game, like all of the other characters. He appears in the level select background, drinking soda or milkshake. He also appears when the player beats a level, jumping and watching the last bubbles be popped. He also appears when the player fails a level, crying. The game uses vectored sprites, so, Bomb, along with the other characters, uses this type of design.

Gameplay
If the player merges a Chuck with another Chuck, Bomb will appear. The larger Chuck is, the larger Bomb will be. If tapped, Bomb will explode, popping a bunch of bubbles, almost all of them. If there is a block near him, he will destroy it with his explosion.

Bomb also appears like a profile picture that the player can unlock and choose. He could be unlocked as a mission member if popcorn was collected on the movie event.

Angry Birds POP Blast
Bomb appears in the game as a playable character that is unlocked at the piñata. He has a new power-up.

Bomb, like all of the characters, uses his movie design and outlined sprites that were made to look like a cartoon. His animations are similar to the ones from the first game. In the Space Race, his design is based on his one in Angry Birds Space

He is also introduced as an icon and artwork character, which he often appears.

Gameplay
Bomb can be unlocked at the Piñata by collecting points. The points to unlock him are 120 like all of the other characters. Bomb can appear at any level where the player uses him. Which the player has to assist him in popping bubbles once again. But this time, it's in any objective.

When his bar is full, he will active his ability, which a bomb appears on the deck and if it's launched, it will dive through bubbles and will then explode after hitting a determined point. The explosion is smaller than any other one but is useful if it hits TNT barrels or bombs.

He can be chosen along with any pig.

Angry Birds Island
Bomb appears in Angry Birds Island as one of the main characters and like most of them, he has to be freed to complete the level. His gameplay is shown below:

Angry Birds Tennis
Bomb appears in Angry Birds Tennis as once again the tritagonist and main character. Like all of the characters in-game he uses a modified version of his Movie 3D model. He has his own boost and can be played in the level the player wants, he can also be choosen for the player's team.

Gameplay
The game is like the classic slingshot games but way easier. Bomb is unlocked in level 1.

After some turns, he activates a stronger ability, which he explodes with more strength and the explosion is bigger.

Angry Birds Reloaded
Bomb appears as a playable character in Angry Birds Reloaded.

Gameplay

=Matilda=

Angry Birds
Matilda makes her first appearance in the original Angry Birds game, like the last bird introduced in Poached Eggs. (in the level Poached Eggs 2-14) She is the final bird of the original flock, along with the biggest. (at that time)

After her debut, Matilda will appear and be a playable character in various levels in all themes, excluding The Big Setup, as the episode solely focused on Hal and Terence as playable characters. She also appears in multiple games and installments of the Angry Birds series as a main character and has become very prominent in the Angry Birds universe.

Like all the other characters of the game, Matilda received a newer animation, getting her "Chrome" design, as all the characters' new designs had originally come from the "Angry Birds Chrome" game.

Gameplay
Despite being one of the largest of the birds, Matilda is weak in physical strength for her size. The egg bombs she deploys have decent power but suffer from a short blast radius and tend to be overestimated in their effect on the structure.

Matilda 's strengths and weaknesses are seen here.

Matilda's corpse used to be a deflated, shriveled version of her once she launched the egg, but as of the newest version of Angry Birds, she will revert to her regular corpse sprite.

Angry Birds Seasons
Matilda appears from the very start of the game when it was once known as Angry Birds Halloween. After her first appearance in Trick or Treat, she will be a playable character in all of the episodes that follow.

Unlike the other installments of the Angry Birds series, Angry Birds Seasons does not update Matilda's design to her new one and stays true to the original.

There was also a version of Matilda in Hogs and Kisses unofficially named "Female White Bird", as she had never been given an official name. She is shown to be significantly smaller than the Female Red Bird in some photos, who was the same size as the regular Red Bird. However, in others, she was just as big as the regular Matilda. It was shown that the Female White Bird and Matilda were in a romantic relationship. However, this had been before official genders were given to the birds and have not been counted as actual canon.

Gameplay
Matilda bears the same ability in the original game in this one, along with her battle cries and launch sounds. There are no changes to her size, strength, or speed.

In Piglantis, Matilda's ability will go along with water. If the water is deep enough, then Matilda's explosive egg will be able to burst out of the surface, and hit possible structures above it. If Matilda is slung into the water, she will sink and then resurface.

Angry Birds Rio
Matilda appears very early in Angry Birds Rio, first appearing in Smugglers' Den 's 70 Star And Feather Award And In Jungle Escape. She was strangely introduced before Bomb, even though she had been introduced after Bomb in the original game. She first appears in Jungle Escape Level 6. After this, she appears in all the following episodes as a playable character.

In the Rio 2 segment, she receives a redesign using her animation from Toons like other characters, who were first introduced in their Chrome designs and then into their animation designs. This featured a more prominently feminine Matilda, as fans had been initially very confused about her gender. (though at this point it had been confirmed that she was clearly a female)

Matilda is one of the few characters that are included in both the animations and the gameplay trailers for the game.

Gameplay
Matilda's ability is the same as the previous 2 installments of Angry Birds. However, it is very notable that she and her egg bomb are notably more powerful, and can make much more damage, which was very pleasing to fans as they complained that her ability had been extremely weak.

If she lays an egg on Luiz during Beach Volley, Luiz will fly in the air; which is quite useful, as Luiz is very strong and can destroy many bricks. (along with destroying even more if beach balls are laid out afterward)

If used right, Matilda can be a very versatile and powerful character to have during boss fights. Matilda's egg bomb is very harmful to bosses, taking a very major hit. (as you usually will need 2-4 of them to defeat the boss) It is recommended that if possible, fire Matilda very close to the boss and lay the egg bomb on him, causing Matilda to fly off, where she will hopefully hit TNT or a weakly supported structure.

Angry Birds Friends
Matilda's technical first appearance in Angry Birds Friends was in Poached Eggs in the same level she first appeared before, but the game's episode chronology starts in Surf and Turf, so it depends. You can also find her in Angry Birds Friends on mobile and on tournaments on both devices.

She was introduced in the game since its release. Her ability stays the same as the other games. In the Holiday Oink Tournaments, her Egg Laying was temporarily replaced with an Explosive Present Dropping ability.

She received a design change in the mobile version, where it now uses the Toons Design, where she is still frowning and the shriveled sprite is the same as injured.

Gameplay
Her ability is the same as stated above, with some minor changes in damage.

Angry Birds Star Wars
Matilda appears in Angry Birds Star Wars, taking on the role of "C-3PO". Although Matilda's character is technically female, she is considered male in this game. Canonically, his name is "C-3PYOLK", which is a pun on the word "yolk" and the name "C-3PO".

In the storyline of Star Wars, which the game is based on, C-3PO is bought by Luke, along with R2-D2. (after they escape the Dark Side troops and are kidnapped by Jawas) After this event, they do play a part in the cutscenes, but both C-3PO and R2-D2 are not playable characters in the story episodes.

Gameplay
This is the first game where Matilda's ability is different. She no longer has the egg-bomb ability, but rather the ability to split into 5 different pieces. While these pieces do have the potential to do a lot of damage, they spread too far apart from each other and not every piece will likely manage to hit an object.

For the player to use the character as best as possible, it's better to make sure that C-3PO is surrounded by as many bricks as possible, and releasing his ability once he is. His ability shouldn't be launched from far distances, as once the pieces lose their speed, they will no longer be as powerful.

C-3PO's ability takes a lot of strategies, just as the original Matilda. If used right, he can do much damage. It can also be noted that unlike the other Angry Birds games, all characters can use their ability even after they hit a structure. (however, this feature will only be available for quite literally only a split second to a second)

Each piece, if having good speed, will be able to destroy all the materials, from glass, wood, and stone. (in the first contact)

Qui-Gon Jinn
While Qui-Gon Jinn doesn't bear an extreme resemblance to Matilda, it has been referenced by Rovio that he is a counterpart of Matilda in the game. He is the first character to be introduced in the game, and also is the first to have an actual "death" cutscene. (which followed the original prequel's storyline) After his death, he does not appear for the rest of the game as a playable character, excluding the underwater level and if the player uses him as a powerup.

Before the events of the game and the prequels, Qui-Gon was first mentored by Count Dooku, who was on the "Pork" side. Qui-Gon served as the mentor of Anakin at the beginning of the game till his death. He was also Obi-Wan's teacher.

There also was an actual plush for the character, and it was promoted in a toy fair along with multiple other "Star Wars II" plush toy promotions. However, they were never released, perhaps due to underwhelming profit, and have not been given away in competitions as Silver had been.

Gameplay
Qui-Gon doesn't have an original ability, which never actually had happened to characters in the Angry Birds universe. Instead, his ability is the same one as Luke in the original Star Wars game. He swings a moderately strengthened lightsaber in a 360 loop, which can instantly kill pigs, shred glass, destroy/damage wood, and harm the metal. He is not very strong and can demolish very few bricks, glass easiest, and slightly damage the metal.

It is noted that again, characters can use their ability for a very short period once they hit a surface or structure before turning into a corpse.

In boss battles, Qui-Gon is rather skilled in using his lightsaber. He can destroy bricks and pigs that go near him vigorously, so an easy way to beat him is to overwhelm him with multiple blocks, perhaps hanging above so that he does not have time to destroy them all and takes on the damage. It is not suggested that the player directly uses his/her character's ability on him, as he can deflect lasers and the playable pigs.

C-3PO
Matilda appears as another character, returning for the role of C-3PO, as the character, of course, had appeared in the prequel storyline which took place before the original. C-3PO's now has two playable versions of him; however, the original C-3PO will be the only one that is featured as a playable character in the Bird Side. (unless, of course, Silver C-3PO is summoned as a power-up)

C-3PO is also given a new design, which doesn't change his physical appearance, but more his animation style. (likely to fit with the other characters better) The Silver version of him also has the same design, only with different colors.

A broken up C-3PO can be found in "Watto's Shop" as a bit of an easter egg, as it was in the prequels that C-3PO had been assembled by Anakin.

Gameplay
The original C-3PO has the same ability as the original, only that now he is playable in normal gravity levels. (as he was only featured in zero gravity in the first game as a bonus character) Due to this, physics do apply, and the pieces that he splits up in will burst out and then fall to the ground.

The other Silver C-3PO is slightly different. In his ability, he will split into 4, rather than 6, pieces that of course, will be much bigger and denser, making them much better at destroying materials and structures. However, the original is much more versatile, so it depends on the player's choice. If the player wants something more destructive for point value or just to beat the level, then the silver version is preferred. If the player, however, wants to hit multiple targets at the same time, then the original may be more preferable.

Angry Birds Go!
Matilda is featured in Angry Birds Go! as a playable character, and multiple changes are made to her character. For one, she uses her Toons animation in-game, which hadn't happened before. She also, like all of the other characters, uses a 3D model, which was a first for Rovio, as all their games had been in 2D animation up until that point.

Like all the other playable characters in the game, Matilda has her kart, which is the Tub-Copter. This is the kart that she is featured within Telepods, promotions, and other merchandise.

Gameplay
Matilda was first featured in Air like a boss. You would have to beat her 3 times in a race to unlock her as a playable character; and like most of the other characters, she had a different ability. (in which she would throw spinning eggs at the player)

However, once the game was updated, the boss battles were then removed from the game and replaced with the campaigns. Now you have to get one star on campaign level 4, race 5.

Matilda also appears in races as an opponent in all themes of the game.

Her ability as a playable character is to throw egg bombs at the rival racers. While this ability is effective in the players that it hits, it isn't as widespread as other character's abilities, or abundant.

Angry Birds Epic
Matilda is included as a playable character in Angry Birds Epic, having the role of the medic and like all the other birds, can be upgraded and changed to the player's preference.

Once she is introduced she becomes a very prominent character, and is involved as an option in most battles and appears in the cutscenes.

Gameplay
Main Article: Epic Characters

Angry Birds 2
Matilda is included as a playable character in Angry Birds 2, which had been introduced after a rather long time where Rovio did not introduce slingshot-based games with Matilda involved. As most of the returning characters in the game (not including Red), Matilda was given the same ability she originally had in the first games.

The game also introduces computer animation for the birds and pigs, which had never happened before in the previous slingshot-based games, where there were instead multiple sprites for the birds that were used when they were idle, flying, corpses, etc. Matilda also appears in her "Angry Birds Toons" animation style, as prominantly female. (along with her voice parts)

Gameplay
Matilda has the same ability as she had in the original games, which is to shoot egg bombs vertically downwards. Once again, the egg bombs aren't extremely effective in terms of destruction, but they are much more effective in being "bombs". They can cause nearby objects to slightly shake, and can also destroy balloons and weak objects even if they are not directly hit.

Matilda also flies to the right once her ability is used, which is a feature that was in all of the other slingshot games. (excluding the Star Wars series) This is useful, as the levels tend to be much bigger than the original, so there are many more structures to knock down and there is more of an opportunity for Matilda to cause damage. In the other games, she looks squiggly, but in Angry Birds 2, she looks normal, she just spins.

Like all of the other birds, Matilda can level up if the player obtains her feathers, which increases the number of points she earns when she is used.

Angry Birds Transformers
Matilda later appears in Angry Birds Transformers as Nautica, Energon Nautica and Strongarm after a 3-year absence in the game, however in the game she does not use her own voice clips at all. she uses Silver's voice clips instead for some reason, and When vehicle mode is turned on, she will form into a jet

Gameplay
Matilda was introduced into the game as Nautica, Energon Nautica and Strongarm The characters have the abilities to blast shots at enemies and she can use her attack skills to make metal come off objects and attack strong enemies and can equip clothes and can use Energonicons to attack pigs and to unlock her, you have to use player choice.

Angry Birds Fight!
Matilda was involved in the Angry Birds Fight! game as one of the 6 playable and customizable characters. Other than this, she also appears on the matching board as one of the 6 icons.

Matilda often appears in promotional material and trailers for the game.

Unlike the other newer Angry Birds games, which made their designs that followed the Toons animations, this game directly takes Matilda's design from the series. (excluding her "matching" icon) The game also uses computer animation, allowing Matilda to be much more lively and animated.

As of August 1st, 2017, the game has been discontinued and taken down from the Play and App stores, and servers have since been shut down.

Gameplay
Each bird had his/her unique ability if the player was able to match 4 or more of their icons. Matilda's unique ability was to lay an egg bomb and erase panels in a vertical line while digging into the enemy's board as well.

Your success depends on how many points you rack up, so matching quickly is dire for the game. If you don't manage to make enough points by matching the bird icons in 3 or more lines, Matilda or other birds that you use will be defeated by the opponent.

Angry Birds POP!
Matilda initially wasn't included in the game, as none of the flock members were, excluding Stella, as it was part of her series. However, she was introduced as a limited edition character and was playable for a short time. Afterward, the original flock members slowly began to replace the Stella characters, and the game was soon branded as a regular Angry Birds game. She is now included in the "Free the Hatchlings" portion, which was originally "Free the Critters", led by Willow.

Matilda is again, seemingly simple trend, in her animation style rather than her classic design.

Gameplay
As a limited edition character, Matilda had the same ability as the "Love Pop" by Shakira, though it is called the "Flock Pop". Unlike Shakira's ability, Matilda's bubble would be able to add time to time-based levels.

The purpose of Matilda's levels is to free the Hatchlings, who are encased in clear bubbles and surrounded by colored ones.

Currently, Matilda is included as a permanent character and is featured with a different ability. Her ability (which was previously Willow's) is to shoot a bubble that colors all the surrounding bubbles the color of the next bubble. (known as the "Splash Pop")

Angry Birds Holiday
Matilda was featured as the main character and guide of the player, which had never happened before; as most games featured Red as the leading main character. Matilda would guide and teach the player how to play the game.

The game was never released out of the soft launch, and Rovio officially announced that the game had stopped development and that it'd be shut down as of December 31, 2016.

Gameplay
Matilda is not a playable character, as none of the birds and pigs are. Thus, Matilda does nothing directly in the game, and the player cannot use her in any way, and she only serves as a guide. However, the entire motive of the game is set by her, as the player must help her in building the resort island to attract the vacationing pigs.

Angry Birds Blast!
Matilda is featured in the game as a part of the levels, rather than a playable character which is strange for the Angry Birds series, as before the game birds were always featured as playable characters. This time around, she is involved as an icon like all the other birds.

Like all the other newer installments of Angry Birds, Matilda uses her newer animation design. However, on the matching board, her appearance is much more exaggerated and her face is made much larger compared to her body.

Gameplay
Matilda does not have any unique abilities or features, unlike her appearances in other games. Instead, the player's objective is to pop 2 or more of the same colored blocks to free the birds incased. The color of the bird's block is determined by its feathers, so of course, Matilda's blocks are white. If the player frees a block with Matilda encased inside, she will fly off the screen and the player will receive points for it.

She also appears with bottles in some levels. If the player hits blocks next to her three times, she will start to throw the bottles in random directions that will destroy other blocks in a 1x1 cross figure, helping the player.

Matilda also appears as her hatchling counterpart in nests where there are two of them in each nest. If a block of the same color as her color is next to the nest, she will pop it. If it's done two times, the nest will disappear.

Angry Birds Dream Blast
Matilda appears in the game as an assisting character on events. Unlike other games, Matilda is a hatchling in this game, like all of the other characters. She appears in events, such as Sweet Apple Jam, her debuting event, where the player has to collect apples in the levels to get rewards and unlock her avatar.

Gameplay
As said above, she appears only during events. She isn't a main character and assists the player.

Angry Birds POP Blast
The game formely didn't include her, but Matilda appeared later in the game as a character after being added in a update, along with other characters, she is unlocked after obtaining a determined number of points that can obtained at the Piñata.

Matilda, like all of the characters, uses her movie design and outlined sprites that were made to look like a cartoon. Her animations are similar to the ones from the first game.

She has minor appearances in artworks.

Gameplay
Matilda, as said above, can obtained with a determined number of points, she can be used at any level that the player uses her. Which the player has to assist her in popping bubbles once again, but this time, it's in any objective.

When her bar is full, she will active her ability, which an explosive fireball appears on the launcher and if it's launched, it will explode a row of bubbles.

She can be chosen along with any pig.

Angry Birds Reloaded
Coming soon…

=Hal=

=Bubbles=

Angry Birds Seasons
Bubbles makes his introduction to the Angry Birds series in Angry Birds Seasons, in the Ham'o'ween theme, the second Halloween based episode of the game. His first level is Ham'o'ween 1-4. where again, he shares the level with another bird in an introduction level, which never happened up until that point. (2 Reds appear with him)

Bubbles got his own character animation to celebrate the introduction of his character, which had never happened before to any of the flock members. (Hal received his own animation for Summer Pignic, but that happened a while after he was introduced)

After his introduction level, Bubbles appears often throughout the following episodes as a playable character. However, he was a very prominent character in Ham Dunk, appearing as the main in the episode banner. The episode was also advertised with Bubbles, likely for his resemblance to a typical basketball.

Bubbles' ability is to inflate to a large size, and then to deflate like a balloon, flying about until he disintegrates. The actual inflating ability is very strong and can be extremely destructive. Bubbles will not destroy the blocks around him by inflating, but more so will push them away, causing them to fly around and crash into other structures, destroying the blocks and structures effectively.

Angry Birds
Bubbles, unlike most of the flock's birds, did not make his debut in the original Angry Birds game. Instead, he first appeared in Angry Birds Seasons, and then appeared in the original game in the Birdday Party theme. After playing his introduction level, Birdday Party 18-1, he will appear often as a playable character.

Bubbles is an extremely unique character in multiple ways. For one, he is the only character in the flock who has another bird in his introduction level. (Chuck was also in the level) He is also the largest character in the flock when inflated, and is the smallest when deflated. (however, in the game he is technically larger than the Blues, while in animations he is much smaller) He is also the first character of Red's flock to be introduced outside of the original game, and have his own introduction video. (Stella was the second of both of these things) Bubbles' ability is the same as it is in Angry Birds Seasons. Bubbles inflates like a balloon, which would originally cause an extreme amount of damage; however, the code in Angry Birds was retooled in 2015, in version 5.1.0; in this update, Bubbles was weakened greatly, as he would usually fly out of the structure or clip through the floor.

Angry Birds Rio
Bubbles appeared very late in the Rio 1 portion, in the very last episode, Smugglers' Plane along with Hal. (unless you count Market Mayhem, which was not part of the storyline but was based on a deleted scene) He is the very last bird introduced in Rio 1, and once you unlock him he appears as a playable character in all of the episodes that follow. (including the Rio 2 segment)

Like all the other characters, Bubbles received an animation change in the Rio 2 segment. However, all the birds converted to their Toons animation styles (getting thicker eyebrows, more prominent male/female features) while Bubbles and Stella only received changes to their outlines, shading, and drawing style. This is likely due to the fact that they are much newer characters, and Rovio probably never had a desire to change their actual style as they did with other characters. (for example, some received changes to the number of head and tail feathers they had, some even received color changes in areas)

Bubbles does not appear in any cinematic or animation trailers for the game but does appear in few gameplay trailers.

Gameplay
Bubbles has the same exact ability as he does in the first 2 games he appears in. He does not face much change, however, it can be noted that he is slightly weaker in some situations. For example, he is not as good at breaking wood, but will still be able to damage multiple very well.

There are no changes to his actual ability, and the same logic applies.

Angry Birds Space
Very early in the Utopia update, PC fans were able to access game files and revealed sprite sheets that contained Bubbles in space, or "Atomic Bird". These files quickly managed to spread on Angry Birds sites and soon, most fans knew of the files. Once Rovio began teasing the release of a new bird, it was already known that it would be Bubbles.

Surely enough, Rovio announced the "best update ever" for Angry Birds Space, and that included the debut of Bubbles' first costumed/counterpart character. He first appears in the Utopia theme, which is very fitting for his character, for his love of sweets. After his first appearance in the level Utopia 4-11, he appears as a playable character in all of the following themes.

He is the first and only new playable character to be introduced into the game. (excluding Wingman, who is just Terence in power-up form)

Utopia's Description in The World of Angry Birds Official Guide:

''The flock was convinced they had seen the last of Space King Pig and his cosmic cronies, but Super Red wasn't so sure. using his mask's hyper-zoom vision he scanned the sector. He was right. The Piggies had retreated to a distant galaxy, a strange realm where the planets seemed to be made of grub. Worst of all, Big Bork was about to tuck into an eggsteroid!''

''Luckily reinforcements had arrived from Piggy Island. Feeling left out, Bubbles had made his way through the wormhole. Had the piggies finally bitten off more than they could chew?''

Gameplay
While in the first three games, Bubble's ability is similar, almost identical, there are multiple notable changes to Bubbles' ability in this game. Bubbles is notably much lighter, and when his ability is activated he tends to begin drifting from the gravitational fields. This is much more obvious when he is underwater, as he almost shoots up out of the water when he inflates.

He is also much weaker in terms of strength, with the length of time where he is inflated shortened. He will not be able to destroy as many bricks, he will be decent at destroying both glass and wood but will merely bounce off of stone.

He is also not materialized when he deflates - once he begins deflating, he can no longer knock into and destroy objects and pigs near him.

He also now has 2 sprites for when he inflates, rather than one. There is a sprite of him mid-inflating and fully inflated, however, the sprite of him mid-inflating only appears for an extremely short period of time. In fact, most players will only be able to see it if they pause the level at the right time.

Angry Birds Friends
Bubbles' technical first appearance into Angry Birds Friends was in Pig Tales Level 5, you can also find him in Angry Birds Friends on mobile, on the level 15 of the 6th floor of the Piggy Tower and on the tournaments on both devices

He was introduced into the game in 2013, 2 years after his official debut, and in that time it was a new character to be introduced in the game. (Hal, though not a member of the core flock, still appeared since the release of the game)

He is also the only character to not have a design change. Quite literally, all of the characters in the game but Bubbles received change from their Chrome to their Toons design (excluding Hal, who received a different design entirely) while Bubbles kept his original, classic design (Due to him not having a different design in Toons)

Very early on in the game when he was first introduced, Bubbles was named "Orange".

Bubbles is also available as a purchasable and customizable avatar for the player.

Gameplay
While there are no changes to Bubbles' size, ability, and basic principles, he does receive an extreme increase in strength. He can easily break through wood and at times will not lose speed or angle, as if it does not affect him. (though it does mean that his ability would be activated) He is also better at breaking through glass, especially if the glass shards are damaged. He again, however, will not be able to destroy the stone.

This holds especially true if the player chooses to purchase the Golden Slingshot or any of the other special slingshots. If they increase his strength in wood, he will notably be much stronger.

If you activate Bubbles' ability and he expands into the ground, he will not glitch and disappear, but will instead be stuck into the ground until he deflates. However, this will only happen if he is weighed down by blocks or indestructible materials.

Angry Birds Go!
Bubbles is featured as a playable character, and as it is a 3D game, he and all the other characters were given 3D character models. He didn't face much change in terms of appearance or voice audio. He is the first character to be introduced in the Air theme.

He is the only character with 2 different 3D models, one where he is inflated and one where he isn't.

Like all the other characters, Bubbles has his own kart, the Rapid Rider. (costing 1,500 gems)

Gameplay
Bubbles has one of the most powerful abilities in the game, and his ability is adapted from the other games he's appeared in. When his ability is activated, his kart disappears and he inflates, rolling down the track. His speed and size increase greatly.

His ability is very versatile. Players can use it to knock into opponents, forcing them out of the way. (and at times tossing them into the air) For players attempting to collect coins, Bubbles can collect entire groups of coins when inflated. This is also very useful when collecting fruit or ice cream.

Bubbles is also not as light when inflated as he is in other games; in fact, being extremely heavy. Thus, the player will not have to worry about him floating off the ground, or losing control of him. He also expands much larger than he does in the previous Angry Birds games.

He used to be unlockable through Boss Battles, and the player would have to beat him 3 times in the "Balloon Frenzy" track. In these battles, he would try to divert the player by sending boxes of TNT, coins, or boosts tied to balloons.

As of v2.0, Boss Battles were removed and replaced with the Campaign Map. Once you get a star in the campaign level 3, race 5, you will unlock Bubbles and will be able to play as him.

Angry Birds Transformers
Bubbles appears in Angry Birds Transformers as the counterparts of Jazz (in the Target: 2006 squad), Ricochet (in the Hotrods squad), and Blaster (in the Instruments of Destruction squad). Like Angry Birds Go!, the game is based on 3D models, and Bubbles' head mount on his characters is taken straight out of the Angry Birds Go! game.

This is the first time of any of Bubbles' appearances that his ability is not based on inflating.

In the comics for the game, Bubbles, like the rest of the flock, touches the EggSpark in order to Transform and they fight to save Piggy Island.

Jazz's description in-game:

''Jazz understands that it's not what you do that counts, but how cool you look doing it. He's stylish and knows it, but doesn't see a need to show off.''

''Being transformed by the Eggspark hasn't changed Jazz's love of candy. In fact, he's only battling to save Piggy Island because of all the delicious candies on it!''

''As one of Optimus Prime's sub-commanders, Jazz if often sent on top-secret missions. He's always calm and cool under pressure.''

A balanced mix of rapid-fire and fast speed means Jazz should take on towers and flying enemies, and dodge tougher treats.

Like most of the light, fast characters, the trick to using Jazz if quickly working out which targets you can take on and which you should leave.

Ricochet's description in-game:

Introducing the sharpest of sharpshooters: Ricochet!

Blaster's description in-game:

''Blaster has always loved rock 'n' roll, but since teaming up with Bubbles his musical tastes have become more... sugary. ''

''Turns out Bubbles' love of candy extends to all things sweet, meaning Blaster's been busting out moves to the latest high-pitched bouncy pop sensation. Have you ever seen a giant robot dancing like your dad? Awk...ward.''

Still, Blaster's got it where it counts - those Eggbots are gonna get scrambled!

''Blaster's weapon uses rapid-fire sound waves that can penetrate through objects, so try to shoot targets at the back and the ones in the front will be destroyed on the way! instruments of destruction''

Gameplay
Jazz is not very strong, so the player should target unarmored pigs or structures that are very weakly supported. Jazz is fairly fast, so in situations where he is overwhelmed with targets the player can easily escape by activating his vehicle form. The player can also put a bit of reliance on his health, as he is a bit tougher than when it comes to his speed.

Ricochet can shoot missiles that bounce off of their targets, which can cause multiple structures to fall over if shot at the right angle. This can be very useful if the player can make the right shots, and each missle can bounce twice off of structures.

Blaster's ability is very similar to the others in his squad. He can shoot "soundwaves" that can pass through objects, damaging/destroying them in the process. Because of this, the game recommends that players aim for targets in the back so that the blasts reach the end but also hit anything that may be in their path.

Angry Birds Blast!
Bubbles appears as one of the main birds in Angry Birds Blast!, and is the only bird in the game that isn't part of the core 5 members of the flock.

Bubbles doesn't appear in any of the themes the levels are based off of, such as Piglantis, or Pig City from Angry Birds 2.

Bubbles' Unique Quest:

"Find some hatchlings to join the masquerade!"

Each character has a unique task for the player, who then can complete them by playing and beating levels with Hatchlings shown on them. Bubbles' quest can earn the player a pink and a blue hatchling.

In the quest's menu, Bubbles wears his Halloween vampire costume.

Gameplay
Bubbles, like all of the birds, is not playable. He has no abilities or special features. Instead, the player is given full control, and his/her objective is to free the birds encased in bubble boxes by popping groups of them in 2 or more. The main color of the bird is the same as the bubble, so of course, Bubbles's bubble blocks will be orange.

If the player breaks open blocks with Bubbles inside, he will fly off the screen and the player will obtain points.

Angry Birds 2
When Angry Birds 2 first launched, it was stated by Rovio that Bubbles chose to "sit out" of the game, along with Hal and Stella. However, the orange bird was added to the game on March 26, 2019, as an extra bird.

Powers
His powers are the same as in most Angry Birds games (inflating), but he does not do his damaging deflation ability. Instead, he pops dealing almost no damage (ignites any TNT near his small blast radius), unless there are some blocks on top of him while he is inflated. In this case, he is a more overpowered Red and weaker version of Bomb, but will activate his power in 2 seconds if he gets hit by any screwdrivers Construction Pigs throw at him, any snow balls shot by Snow Pig, or hits normal surfaces.

Angry Birds Explore
Bubbles appears in the map selling Lollipops at the Lollipop Beach, but he is not seen in the minigames and other. He uses a Movie 3D Model with nostrils.

Gameplay
Like said above, he doesn't have a major role. He keeps annoucing Lollipops at the beach while wearing a cap and having a box of lollipops. He doesn't appear further in gameplay anymore.

Angry Birds Reloaded
Bubbles is featured as a playable character in Angry Birds Reloaded.

Unlike Angry Birds Friends, he uses his Toons design in this game.

Gameplay
Bubbles has the same exact ability as he does in the previous slingshot games he appears in. He does not face much change in this game.

There are no changes to his actual ability, and the same logic applies.

=Stella=

Angry Birds Seasons
Stella's first debut in the Angry Birds Series was the Back to School theme, introduced in a short animation for the episode. She is the fourth bird "introduced" in the episode, as all characters were given tutorial levels in this episode, though she was the only actual new character. After this appearance, she becomes a recurring playable character in various levels afterward.

Gameplay
Stella bears the same ability in the original game in this one. Much controversey arose upon her initial release as many regarded her an extremely useless character, unable to cause any significant level of damage. Many also complained that the "bubble" ability was excruciatingly weak, as it would not (and still doesn't) deal as much damage as the other birds.

When Rovio released Back to School, Stella had initially been even weaker than she is now, utterly incapable of shattering bricks or even popping pigs (something which all the other birds could do with ease). Stella had to be used with much planning and strategy, as she was not nearly as versitile as the other birds (such as Bomb or Terence, whose powerful abilities enabled them to demolish structures with ease).

Angry Birds
After Stella's first introduction in Angry Birds Seasons, she was quickly added into the original Angry Birds game in the Birdday Party theme; being introduced in level 19-1. From then on, and throughout the games that followed, she was a playable character.

Her and Bubbles are the only two characters whose designs were not changed while all other characters reverted to their "Chrome" designs.

Gameplay
Gameplay with Stella can be extremely challenging at times. This is mostly due to the fact that her ability is extremely unreliable, along with the fact that she herself does not deal much damage. If you attempt to knock over heavy structures, she will only be able to lift blocks that aren't being weighed down by others. If you are in a zone with TNT, other explosives, or many freed, open objects, then Stella may be able to do some significant damage by chance.

On her own, Stella will not be able to do much damage. She will only be able to shatter a single glass block, do slight damage to wood, and will merely bounce off stone blocks (making her physically the weakest bird in Red's entire flock). Stella is most useful when she is surrounded by bricks that are not covered, so the best way to take advantage of her ability is to shoot her in between structures, and then release her ability the minute she falls in between the blocks.

Angry Birds Rio
Stella had been introduced so late in the game to the point that the original Rio segment had been finished. She ended up being introduced in the Rio 2 segment, as the new movie had come out and the game had added more levels and themes in order to promote it. Because of this, she never recieved a redesign, and was introduced in her animation design unlike other characters, who were first introduced in their Chrome designs and then into their animation designs. (however, Stella and Bubbles recieved no changes to their actual original designs, and only recieved different colored outlines and better shading, as they were much newer characters)

She appears in the first theme of Rio 2, Rocket Rumble. After this, she appears in all of Rio 2, being playable in various different levels. Stella was not included in any animations or trailerse for the game, excluding gameplay trailers.

Gameplay
Stella's ability is the same as the previous two Angry Birds games she appears in, even having the exact same launch sounds and battle cries.

During boss fights (a feature which had been introduced in Rio, whereas before there were only boss levels), Stella's ability does little to the actual boss. Even if her ability is used and manages to trap the boss in a bubble, it will do absolutely nothing, nor affect the enemy in any way. Instead, she should be used as an extra bird, perhaps to trigger TNT or lift harmful debris if the boss is nearby.

Angry Birds Friends
In Angry Birds Friends, Stella formerly appeared as only a bird that can be chosen as an avatar in the Bird-O-Matic, but Stella later returns playable.

She appears playable first in Pink Friday Tournament level 1 on November 22, 2018. She appears in the game again, though infrequently, and can be found in both Facebook and mobile versions.

When her playable version was first introduced, she sported the Toons Design, even in the Facebook version. Her bubbles also had a different design and moved rather than staying still. In the PC version, when looking through the tutorials, there are extra sprites that are not used in-game, such as a more detailed launch sprite.

Gameplay
While there are no changes to Stella's size, ability, and basic principles, her ability is slightly more powerful, destroying other blocks. Using Power-Ups or Special Slingshots will increase her strength and ability.

Angry Birds Star Wars
Stella, or "Princess Stella Organa," is both a main and playable character in the Star Wars game. Stella was introduced from the very start of the game in promotional art and even had her character introduction set, but was not introduced as a playable character upon the game's release. In fact, players had to wait until the Hoth update to play as Stella in levels.

In the storyline of Star Wars, Stella plays the role of Princess Leia, Luke Skywalker's sister and Han Solo's love interest. She is first held captive by Darth Vader until she is saved by the others; from then on, she becomes a very prominent character in the storyline.

Strangely, some artwork and animations of her have a tail showing on her back, but it does not appear when you play her in the game. The tail also fails to appear in her plush toy.

Gameplay
Stella, for the first time, is featured with a different ability than what she typically had in slingshot-based games (the bubble ability). Rather, she has a pink tractor beam whith which she can pull objects towards her. While this ability is weak at first, it grows stronger as the player progresses.

Players can use this ability to pull a supporting block on a tall structure, causing it to topple over, sometimes onto other structures. It can also be used to attack pigs beyond the other birds' reach. However, if there is an object between Stella and the player's desired target, Stella will instead hit the object.

It is also of note that all the characters in the game can activate their ability for a short period of time after they hit a structure, which can be used to the player's advantage.

Body-wise, Stella is not very strong, just as she appears in prior Angry Birds games. Once again, she is unable to deal much damage, at best shattering a few blocks of glass and wood, damaging steel only slightly.

If the player uses Stella's ability on the ground or other indestructible material, nothing will happen.

Angry Birds Star Wars II
Stella appears in the second installment of the Star Wars series as Padme Amidala, the mother of Luke Skywalker and Princess Leia and the romantic interest of Anakin Skywalker. She also appears as Princess Leia, without upgrades, exactly the same as the previous installment; Leia can be unlocked only by purchase with coins.

Padmé Amidala first appears in the boss battle of Naboo Invasion as a captive, locked inside of a cage. Once the player beats the boss battle and frees her, along with Captain Panaka and Jar Jar Binks, she appears in cutscenes of Escape to Tatooine but is not a playable character until the Battle of Naboo episode.

Canonically, her name is "Peckme Amidala", which was introduced in the character encyclopedia book.

In the actual events of the movie, Anakin strangles Padme to her death, which is a very prominent reason for his turn to the dark side, but in the game's ending cutscenes rather than dying, Padme escapes with Obi-Wan. There is no longer regret for Anakin and in place of killing Padme. He instead is greatly injured by Obi-Wan and is made Darth Vader by Palpatine.

Gameplay
Padme's ability is the polar opposite of Leia's. It's the same concept, though Padme's tractor beam will push away structures and blocks from her rather than pull them closer. There are no ability upgrades in the game, so Padme's ability does not become stronger as the game progresses.

The same rules apply for Padme's ability as it does for Leia's; if there is a structure in between Padme and the player's target, the tractor beam will catch onto the structure in between. Targetting indestructible structures or the ground will do nothing.

Just like Leia, Padme is not very strong body-wise.

Angry Birds Go!
Stella appeared in Angry Birds Go! with the rest of her flock, along with the pigs. She is the second character introduced in the Seedway episode and is also the first character to be unlocked. She also appears in the cinematic trailer for Angry Birds Go! along with getting her own character video.

Strangely, she and Matilda never appeared in Jenga playsets as promotion for Angry Birds Go!, and were also the only female characters of the game. It is also strange considering that they had Telepods, which used similar/identical molding to the Jenga playsets.

Stella's default car is the Soda Pop Sedan, and in promotional art and on her Telepod she wears sunglasses and a bandana.

Gameplay
Stella's ability is bubble based, like in most of her slingshot-based games.

When there were boss battles in the game, you would have to beat Stella 3 times in a race in order to unlock her. (which was fairly easy, as she was the first character that players needed to unlock) In these boss battles, she would blow bubbles in order to divert the player. Once the battles were replaced, however, Stella would be unlockable once the player beat the Campaign Level 2 Race 5.

When you play as Stella, her ability is to incase herself in a large bubble, protecting herself from attacks by other birds, TNT laid on the track and other debris while catching fruit or coins. The bubble wasn't extremely powerful, and Stella's ability wasn't as useful as the other characters'. The bubble doesn't last for a very long period of time but is still effective when used.

Angry Birds Stella
Stella was the main character of her own series, she was 1st introduced bird in ''Angry Birds Stella. ''The game was introduced in early 2014, where Rovio began teasing newer birds until they revealed that Stella would receive her own game along with her friends. The game begins when Gale orders the pigs to break into Stella's house to steal her scrapbook, which causes Stella and her friends to fight through each level of pigs to chase after Gale.

Stella has a very close bond with her best friends, Poppy, Luca, Willow, and Dahlia, and they all live together on a big tree by the shore. Their former friend turned enemy, Gale, chose power over the flock, causing a separation to happen.

Unfortunately, the game was discontinued by Rovio as of July 13, 2015. Stella wasn't affected by this, as she was a main character in other Angry Birds installments and still is.

Gameplay
Stella has a different ability than the original games. Rather than blowing bubbles around her surroundings, she has a parkour ability (named "pink flash") where she can bounce off of one object and crash into another. This is much more effective than her previous ability and allows Stella to be a much stronger character.

The first object she flies to will be pushed with some force, so the player will be able to knock over moderate structures with great damage, perhaps toppling over stone ones with the right angle.

The second target after she bounces off the first one will have a much more powerful effect; once she hits the structure she will have a mini-explosion, and she herself can destroy bricks and pigs effectively, as she is launched at a very high speed.

If you use Stella without her ability, she won't be as strong, but can still break a few bricks and can pop pigs with ease. (however, it is notable that in this game, pigs are much tougher than in the originals)

Angry Birds POP!
Stella appeared as the main character of the game when it was first released, being titled Angry Birds Stella POP! before. However, the Stella characters were slowly taken out of the game and were replaced with the original Angry Birds flock members. Stella was not replaced, but had the "Drop the Pigs" and "Defeat Gale" portion given to Red. She is now only playable in the "Pop the Top" portion.

Red also replaced Stella as the main character of the game.

Stella appears in her newer series design.

Gameplay
Previously, Stella had 3 level types that the player could play with as her but is only available for the "Pop the Top" levels now. In these levels, the player must pop the bubbles all the way to the top, where they must pop 6 of the very top row bubbles, freeing the fireflies, in order to beat the level. It can be noted that the player must make groups of at least 3 of the same color bubbles to pop them, so the top row is often frustrating as bubble supply is often limited and colors that have no use are given.

Her boost ability is called "Power Pop", and it pops the surrounding bubbles in whichever area it hits. The color of the bubble does not matter, so the player can choose to fling the bubble wherever they choose. (however, shooting it on the very bottom row will not do much damage)

Angry Birds 2
When Angry Birds 2 first launched, it was stated by Rovio that Stella chose to "sit out" of the game, along with Hal and Bubbles. She could be used as a player icon in the tournament in her Stella animation form, but other than that she made no other appearances in the game.

She was, however, added in the game on October 17, 2018, and became available to use on October 19.

Gameplay
Stella is an Extra Bird in Angry Birds 2; she is usually sleeping but can be woken up to be usable for four hours and occupy an extra eighth spot in Red's flock. Once the four hours are up, Stella goes back to sleep, and the player must wait twelve hours before they can wake her up again. You can also do this with Hal, Bubbles, and Leonard, but you can only use one at a time.

As with older games, Stella once again has the ability to wrap things in bubbles and lift them away. This time around, though, the ability is actually pretty reliable, making her useful even though she's still physically the weakest bird in the flock. When using the ability, Stella encases herself in a bubble; in this state, anything she touches also gets encased in a bubble and is carried off for a short while before the bubbles pop, after which the items inside take heavy damage from falling. Since there's no limit as to how many items can be affected by the ability, Stella is particularly useful for clearing away structures with a lot of materials densely packed together. With this ability, Stella can even be used to one-shot some bosses; if used at the right time, Stella's ability can send a boss pig falling straight into a bottomless pit or floating up and away, killing him instantly (provided there is a bottomless pit in the room or a gap in the ceiling where the boss can float out of).

Angry Birds Transformers
Stella appears in the game as Arcee, Airachnid, and Chromia. When vehicle mode is turned on, she will form into a motorbike. Both characters belong to the Valkyries squad.

Stella appears as Arcee in the comic adaptions, which were released along with the game, and even appeared in the loading screen for the game but wasn't introduced until updates later on.

As described in the game,

''Don't let her pink color scheme distract you - Arcee is a fearsome warrior and an excellent shot. She leaves it to the clumsy Deceptihogs to blast away wildly - her skill is picking out the exact block that will bring a tower down.''

Arcee has always been a fierce fighter, and teaming up with Stella has just added to her headstrong, driven nature.

''Every TRANSFORMERS character has their reason for battling the EggBots, but Arcee is thinking about the bigger picture... she figures that if EggBots succeed in turning Piggy Island into metal they'll be free to turn their attention to other islands, and that's not happening on her watch!''

''Arcee's weapon is designed to bring down piggy towers with carefully placed precision shots. Blocks that she hits are shoved backward, meaning she can easily bring down towers that other characters struggle with.''

''The downside is that her shots do very little damage to armored enemies, so anything that can't be knocked down will give her trouble. Best to use her high speed to outrun danger!''

Airachnid's description reads,

''Remember how the EggBots created Nemesis Prime to battle the TRANSFORMERS character but he rebelled against them? Turns out EggBots don't learn too well because they tried it again!''

''Designed to be a sinister version of Arcee, the only flaw in the EggBot's plan is that they're idiots. Stella and Arcee are as heroic as Red and Optimus Prime, so of course, Airachnid immediately joined the battle to save Piggy Island!''

Airachnid may have joined the Autobird/Deceptihog alliance, but she still has a little to the EggBot's mischievous personality.

''Airachnid roams Piggy Island as a lone warrior, causing trouble for the EggBots by knocking down towers, poking pigs and searching for the Eggspark. But what will she do if she finds it?''

''Airachnid's weapon follows the same principles as Arcee's, just more extreme! Bring down towers by knocking away the right blocks, but don't expect to destroy tough enemies.''

''Instead, use Airachnid's speed to transform, not only out-running threats but also causing enemies to shoot too far ahead. Once they've fired at where they expect her to be, transform to slow down and watch the shots fly by!''

Gameplay
Arcee and Airachnid aren't very strong characters, but Airachnid is much more powerful than Arcee. Both will not be able to destroy very strong structures or armored targets, so their abilities rely on strategy rather than strength. However, they are very fast in their vehicle form so it can be used to flee when the player is overwhelmed with enemies.

Angry Birds Fight!
Stella was featured in Angry Birds Fight! as one of the 6 playable and customizable characters. Unlike other games, which based the character's design off the Toons animation but didn't take it directly from the series, Angry Birds Fight! took Angry Birds Toons animations and put them directly into the game. Stella never appeared in Angry Birds Toons, but still had a design for it and the design was used in animations before, like the Back to School animation.

This does not apply to her icon, which is a different design like all the other characters.

The game was discontinued as of June 27th, 2017, and is no longer playable.

Gameplay
All the characters had unique abilities, and Stella's was, again, based on her bubble ability. She would blow bubbles and use them to cover up the opponent's board.

If you match 4 of Stella's panels, then instead of her audio like all the other birds, Bubbles' audio plays instead, even though he does not appear in the game.

Your level result is based on the number of points you make, which is based on your matching abilities, so matching quickly and often is very important to beat the battle. If you don't make enough points by matching the bird icons in groups of 3 or higher, the two birds will battle and Stella or any other birds that you use in the battle will be defeated by the opponent.

Angry Birds Ace Fighter
Stella appears in tutorial boxes, visual audio effects, and mail inbox. She is not a playable character and only serves as a background character.

Angry Birds Holiday
Stella appeared in the game, but it is unknown what role she had as the game was scrapped from development and was never released outside of soft-launch. It can be assumed that perhaps she had her own building that the player could purchase, or was a roaming character on the map.

Angry Birds POP Blast
Stella appears in the game as a playable character that is unlocked after obtaining 100 points. She has a new power-up.

Stella, like all of the characters, uses her movie design and outlined sprites that were made to look like a cartoon. Her animations are similar to the ones from the first game. Unlike other games, her pupils aren't blue in-game, and instead, black.

She is also introduced as an artwork character, which she often appears.

Gameplay
Stella is unlocked after obtaining 100 points in the piñata. Stella can appear at any level where the player uses her. Which the player has to assist her in popping bubbles once again, but this time, it's in any objective.

When her bar is full, she will active her ability, which a a bubble appears on the launcher and if it's launched, it will bounce and encases bubbles with bubblegum, then any affected bubble can be popped with any color bubble.

She can be chosen along with any pig.

Angry Birds Journey
Stella appears in Angry Birds Journey as once again a main character. Like all of the characters in-game, she uses a classic toons and movie appearance and cartoonish sprites. She has her classic ability and a stronger ability.

Gameplay
The game is like the classic slingshot games but way easier. Stella is unlocked in level 7. Unlike the other games, she uses her ability on impact, which she creates a bubble around her that traps blocks in them and makes them fall. After some turns, she activates a stronger ability, which the bubble is bigger.

Angry Birds Reloaded
In Angry Birds Reloaded, Stella appears as a playable character.

She uses her Toons design like everyone else (except for the Mighty Eagle).

Gameplay
There are no changes to Stella's size, ability, and basic principles meaning it's the same as in previous games.

Angry Birds: Bird Island
Stella appears as one of the three free character bundles that the player gets in this game with Red and Chuck.
