"Excellent. You boys make me proud. In fact, I'm so proud that I'm going to show you something. This is what we're fighting for, boys. This is what makes all the hard work, all of the eating and the napping, all of it worthwhile."
Originally, Corporal Pig was a round pig with lime skin. He wore a gray helmet with two brown belts on the sides, that covered most of his head. In Angry Birds Chrome, his design was updated to have larger eyes. This design would be also used in future updates of the original Angry Birds, Angry Birds Space, Angry Birds Friends before 2020, the levels of Angry Birds Trilogy, and in Angry Birds Epic. In the cutscenes of Angry Birds Trilogy and the episodes of Angry Birds Toons before "Thunder Chuck", Corporal Pig used a similar design, though his skin was slightly darker and his eyes were smaller, just like in his earliest design.
From "Dopeys on a Rope" onwards, Corporal Pig received a completely different design. His skin is now green-colored, much darker than before, and his eyes cannot be seen due to his helmet covering them. The helmet is now slightly damaged, and has a brown belt across it with a card with a spade on it. This design was also used for The Angry Birds Movie, where he was given an anthropomorphic design.
Personality
Corporal Pig is a bossy, selfish pig, whose entire life goes about bullying and doing exercises.[1] He spends all day screaming at his minions, using fear to put them in order.[1] Corporal Pig is very short-tempered, and punishes any pig that disobeys him by kicking them out of Pig City. Once, when King Pig (whom Corporal Pig did not recognize due to the monarch not wearing his crown) accidentally dirtied him with mud, he threw him to a landfill.[3] Corporal Pig spends all day screaming at his minions, using fear to put them in order, which is why he is respected.[1] However, he is also very stubborn, as he wants to have everything to go his way, and never learns from his mistakes. He is pretty uninspiring as well, never inspiring his troops to make them do their job.[1] In addition, he can be cowardly, running away from a public pool after seeing two shark fins which were actually two disguised Minion Pigs.[4] Unless his helmet is in play, the main symbol of his high rank is taken away, making him a joke and unaccepted for the rest of the Pig Kingdom. This is what triggers him the most, which he's been utterly persevered and unafraid to retrieve it back, even if the birds are in his way.
Relationships
King Pig
King Pig is Corporal Pig's hero. In his eyes, the monarch is a Greek god who has to be worshipped, and will do absolutely to satisfy him. He is even willing to punish anyone who makes fun of King Pig by catapulting them out of Pig City.[1] Nevertheless, he cannot recognize King Pig if he is not wearing his crown.[3]
In Angry Birds' official website before 2016, Corporal Pig's profile stated that he accidentally glued his helmet to his scalp, making him unable to take it off.[1] Ironically however, most of his appearances show him taking off his helmet.
With the Corporal Pig plush from 2010, if one were to cut the threads holding his helmet down and taking it off, they could see that he is bald with no visible ears. This could be due to the makers not intending for the ears to be visible since Corporal Pig would always have his helmet on.
Corporal Pig's current helmet design from Angry Birds Toons and The Angry Birds Movie is based on Vietnam War helmets where soldiers would tuck Ace of Spades cards onto helmets due to the belief that it would instill fear into the enemy.
Corporal Pig's design is based off Soldier from Team Fortress 2.
↑In "Operation Nautilius" from the first issue of Angry Birds Game Play, Foreman Pig refers to him as Steve. The canonicity of this fact is debated, as multiple pigs that resemble him appear in the same comic.
