The live-action telepods may be the upcoming title's most novel feature, but that doesn't mean the game doesn't have several software-based goodies as well. It is recommended for kids aged 5 years and above. The Telepods will be available in stores for about $20 shortly before game launches in September. The Star Wars Hasbro Series 1 Angry Birds Mystery Bags Action Figure is appropriate for boys and girls. Rovio's VP of marketing Philip Hickey says the Telepod collaboration with Hasbro allowed the company to make even Jar Jar Binks' character interesting - and we have to admit, that's quite an accomplishment. The tablet recognized the characters in just a second or two, and then we were able to play with new birds and their associated abilities (hint: more explosions). To get started with the Telepod figures, we simply had to place them (attached to their plastic stand) over the demo iPad's camera.

Coming to Android and iOS on September 19th (and to consoles a month later), the app features more than 30 playable characters and - most notably - works with Hasbro-designed "Telepods." If you've heard of Skylanders - not to mention Hasbro's zAPPed line of add-ons for iPad games - the concept will be quite familiar: the Angry Birds Star Wars 2 Telepods give players access to additional characters and superpowers. Rovio recently announced a sequel to its Angry Birds Star Wars game, and the Finnish company was on hand to demo its latest title here at Comic-Con.
