Sardines (originally called the Mighty Mouse[1]) are used to summon the Mighty Eagle in some games.
Appearance[]
Sardines are brick-shaped metal can with bigger borders and a pink sardine symbol on top. It wasn't originally a Sardine Can, but rather a mouse. The mouse was gray and round, with a separate oval head with big round ears with pink skin, a black snout and large clueless eyes with black pupils. The mouse also had a light belly and a long tail.
In The Angry Birds Movie, the design of the sardines can is different, and the movie has Mighty Eagle eating a sardine.
Game appearances[]
Angry Birds[]
Debuting in the Ham 'Em High update with the Mighty Eagle on iOS and in the same update which added power-ups on Android, it was used to summon said character when pressing the Mighty Eagle button.
When the player touches the Mighty Eagle button next to the pause button, all the birds disintegrate and a can of sardines spawns on the slingshot. When the player shoots the sardines from the slingshot, the Mighty Eagle comes down to attack in a wide V-Shape. The Sardines themselves can pop pigs and knockdown weak structures. They are very bouncy and will bounce off most surfaces. The best position for them is the front or in-between structures, so Mighty Eagle may get a higher chance to destroy most objects in the level.
Angry Birds Seasons[]
The sardine once again appears as an object used in the game, which debuted in the v1.5.2 update on iOS and in the same update which added power-ups on Android. In Year of the Dragon, it gets replaced by the Red Koi Fish. In Ham Dunk, a backpack replaces it.
Angry Birds Rio[]
The sardine once again appears as an object used in the game which debuted in a random update on iOS and in the same update which added power-ups on Android.

Angry Birds Friends[]
The sardine used to appear purchasable in the shop but for Bird Coins, which only gave a limited number of sardines. They worked the same way but could be only used in the story levels. They were removed when the Facebook version was changed to be more like the Windows 10 version (depressingly) in January 2020. Unlike the previous games, the sardines were limited in quantity.
Angry Birds Fuji TV[]

A Big Sardine Can, from Angry Birds Reloaded.

Media appearances[]
The Angry Birds Movie[]
The sardines appear when Mighty Eagle is leaving his armchair after singing the Mighty Eagle Song. He almost slips on one of the cans. There is also a big sardine as a trophy on his cave's walls.
In a deleted scene, Mighty Eagle eats sardines from the can while telling his coconut story. It can be watched here.

Trivia[]
- The sardine can's shape is the reason why it's often confused with a bar of soap.
- The original Mighty Mouse name could refer to a character from Terrytoons during the 40s to 60s.
- It's also allegedly said that the sound that it makes when it you launch it is a beta version of Chuck’s ability sound.
