Powers and abilities[]
- Boomerang: Hal’s signature move is to open his beak in a specific way and spin back like a boomerang, which enables him to attack buildings from behind. To help him fly over the buildings more easily, Hal can also be launched from the Slingshot much farther than the other birds.
- Tornatoes: Available only in Angry Birds Go!, Hal can summon tornatoes onto a player, greatly diminishing their strength.
- Transformation: Hal changed into Volcanicus, Trypticon, and Grimlock after the EggSpark crashed on Piggy Island.
Appearance[]
Chuck is the only other bird in Red’s flock with a beak color other than yellow, and Hal is a medium-green bird with a large orange beak. He has four (sometimes three) spiky tail feathers like Chuck and three top black feathers like Matilda. He has medium-sized eyebrows, two eyes on either side of his beak, and pure white chest feathers.
He had three thick black eyebrows, large bulging eyes on one side of his head (that tend to switch places), a dark yellow beak with an orange tip, and medium green feathers in his early Kombo Studios animation design. Surprisingly, this design more closely resembles his prototype Chrome design than the original.
Hal’s black markings on the base of his beak make him more like an actual emerald toucanet in the Angry Birds Coca-Cola trailer. In this version, he is devoid of the feathers on his head and has yellow rings surrounding his eyes. He has a different shade of orange in his beak, with a red patch close to his nares. He no longer has the white stomach that was present in his earlier designs, and his feathers are now emerald green.
Hal makes an appearance in the Angry Birds movie as a green, anthropomorphic emerald toucanet. His design resembles a cross between his Kombo and prototype chrome designs. He has orange stubby feet and his beak turns back to a simple orange color. His stomach has turned pale beige, and the black feathers on his head and tail have turned green. He is voiced by Anthony Padilla in the movie.
Personality[]
Hal’s personality has been erratic, with varying portrayals of the character appearing in various media.
Hal is depicted as a very mature character in a number of places, such as the Angry Birds comic series. He appears to have a great appreciation for life’s little pleasures because he frequently goes camping or plays the banjo when he is discovered. He is a rather daring bird that dons an adventurer’s hat in Angry Birds Go! (which was featured in the game’s toys and telepods). He doesn’t feel the need to become angry and typically stays out of the bird fights with the pigs.
But in scenes like The Angry Birds Movie and the Summer Pignic short film, Hal is shown as a very foolish and awkward character. He is obviously much younger, and his voice is given a squeaky, nasal quality instead of a raspy, creaky one. This version of him, in contrast to his other, very different personality, is an actual “angry” bird who has a strong desire to get angry and fight the pigs. He included both of these elements in his description for The Official Guide to the World of Angry Birds.
