ANGRY BIRDS TRANSFORMERS TELEPODS 2014 PRODUCT DESCRIPTIONS

Autobirds, ‘roll out!’ The epic battle for Piggy Island has begun as two of the world’s largest and most popular entertainment brands join together to create the all-new ANGRY BIRDS TRANSFORMERS franchise. This Fall, the fast-paced, flying adventures of ANGRY BIRDS is combined with the iconic TRANSFORMERS characters to present ANGRY BIRDS TRANSFORMERS TELEPODS, a high-octane digital and physical play experience featuring iconic TRANSFORMERS characters in ANGRY BIRDS form.

When the mysterious Egg Spark lands on Piggy Island, RED BIRD becomes OPTIMUS PRIME Bird, CHUCK (YELLOW BIRD) becomes BUMBLEBEE Bird, and a whole new environment filled with TRANSFORMERS-inspired vehicles, rivalries, and raceways appears. The ANGRY BIRDS TRANSFORMERS lineup and TELEPODS gaming platform, powered by Retoy, offers fans ‘MORE THAN MEETS THE EYE’ with three different ways to play. Launch TELEPODS figures in vehicle mode for awesome races, convert them into robot mode to reenact classic TRANSFORMERS battles, or teleport figures straight into the ANGRY BIRDS TRANSFORMERS app from Rovio Entertainment to unlock additional characters and special powers.
