Golden Egg #52, or better known as the “Big Basketball” is unlocked after you obtain 3 star all levels of Angry Birds Seasons Ham Dunk. Note that you do not need to 3-star the bonus NBA levels, only the normal 15. Once you’ve accomplished this goal, tap the Basketball in the middle of the Golden Egg screen to open up the level below.

I got better results with aiming at the right shoulder pad, 155K
I aimed for the neck area. Fairly random results but I finally improved my score to 143670 when this happened – the structure fell and twitched a lot, then threw an arm over to the left hitting the leftmost pig which had survived the initial collapse. The twitching was causing damage of 500 points at a time, it’s worth being patient!
I improved my score 6000 points by aiming orange at the green bubble under the robot’s left arm. This should take out both the pigs with legs underneath. I then sent yellow to the green bubble on left shoulder. Good destruction. 149390.
I’ve had a one birder of 145130 by aiming orange at green bubble under left arm, will keep flinging and hope for more!
Same strategy – 179,480
I used this method to get 175250. Fun to watch the robot go off in all different directions.
Great tip @triggerfish – for some reason my 169K score did not appear on the iphone screen, came back here for advice & your strategy worked within minutes! Thanks
One birder by aiming to just skim the green bubble with orange and popping at the legs. Did this several times but only once did it cause a complete destruction.
this level tends to freeze up- whenever Bubbles attacks between King’s “legs”, he FLIES out of control, slinging his body through the air, until I guess the game cant take it anymore- then FREEZE
1 birder,1st try, aimed for king pig and hit it thru left shoulder pad…expanded, which sent robot thing wriggling around…luckily his left arm finally hit the leftmost stilt pig for 133,930. Way lucky shot as I haven’t come near that after 5 more tries.
Looks like the glitch is back. ;)

I aimed at the bottom-left leg with my first bird. The whole structure started to wriggle and spin like crazy for a few seconds. Then the picture shows what I have left. It seems that the old Summer Pignic golden egg glitch can be done here too, :D
Seems to be generally glitchy. 3 times now I’ve had it where the right arm jerks wildly to the right, once even flying off to the right. Each time the screen froze completely, and even after leaving it for a while it remained frozen, and needed to be rebooted.
I did the same aim to the upper leg. The Orange bird bounces up to the right on activates. Then I waited for the figure to destroy itself. It was a one bird solution.
Whenever I hit King Pig’s sweet spot, the robot will fly up into the air, spin around like a ragdoll, and then zoom really fast over to the right; causing the game to freeze up and crash
Aimed at the leg, and had just the leftmost pig on stilts left. So I needed Chuck to finish.
Anyone else notice that the scores for this level were zeroed as a result of the Finn Ice update today?
I had what I considered to be a very decent score of 168K. I made a few tries and got to 150K with 2 birds, but I vaguely remember having a one birder before. The jitterbug glitch is still present but seems more subdued tha n what I recall.
I was alerted to this situation by playing level 2-8 and seeing a golden basketball appear when I completed the level. Seemed strange so I went to the golden eggs screen and sure enough my score was zero.
Is is a broken update or did they intentionally fix something?
The right leg is still glitchy and as per @peejaydee27, it locks up the screen and needs to be rebooted.
Same thing happened to me @birdmeister. Luckily after about 30 minutes of flinging I narrowly beat my previous score. Between this and having half my golden eggs scores zeroed out on the original after updating the Red version, I’m getting a little peeved.
@birdmeister
I just noticed this today. Not sure why, but I went back to play Ham Dunk 3-2 because how far off the high score I was. (Not even sure why I checked those scores after all this time). But I completed that level and beat my previous high and the 3 star basketball showed up as if I had just completed 3 stars in all levels for the first time. I clicked on this level and it was 0. The other 2 golden eggs for this episode still have the correct scores.
Played this level again for about 2 hours and improved my score about 8k.
I wonder how many others have not noticed this little bug.
@admins
I thought it was just me but the same thing has happened to me . Not only Ham Dunk but also Artic Eggspedition and Piglantis. Just the large main bonus. @birdmeister @sparty83 @admins
Wasn’t aware of more incidents until your post and playing tonight’s challenge. The score for the bonus big Easter egg in Season’s Easter Eggs is also zero’d. I had to download the episode from the cloud before playing. Wonder if that is the source of the problem?
Anyway this is getting ridiculous.
After reading this, I went through all Seasons episodes. I had 2 scores zeroed out. Ham Dunk and Easter Eggs. All other 3 star golden eggs were good. Looks like it may be random as to which 3 star golden eggs are zeroed.
@hoy49, @birdmeister, @admins
Since posting this I have discoverd that Finn Ice and Cherry Blossom Golden Eggs high scores have also been zero’d. Finn Ice is really strange since I played that in December and I don’t remember any Seasons updates since then on my platform.
@karen68, thats what happened to me as well, except I only scored a 3*, not a new high.
Since the Finn Ice update, older Seasons episodes are stored on the Rovio cloud and you must explicitly download them to play. You can tell which ones are local and which are on the cloud by the presen ce of a cloud icon.
@birdmeister, @sparty83 when I started playing today’s challenge, EE1-13 my big Easter Egg was fine, the 3 stars were there. But when I completed the level with a new high score the egg popped up on the screen like I’d just opened the bonus level & now my 3 stars are gone. The same thing happened on the last Seasons challenge in Cherry Blossom. The only other one that’s zeroed out for me is Ham Dunk, but I don’t know when that happened.
@birdmeister when you mention the cloud, are you talking about your account on the Rovio cloud?

@birdmeister where do I see the cloud icon you mentioned? I’m curious about this as I don’t have a Rovio cloud account, I never signed up for one. I’ve never had to download any of the older episodes to play them.
@karen68
For Seasons, there is no account sign in like in Original or Star Wars 2. The cloud thing rovio added came with the On Finn Ice update.
Looks like they missed saving the 3 starring all levels data when they implemented this “feature”
After reading some of the comments here, I went back and look at all 3 star bonus levels. Only showed the 2 mentioned above that had zeroed out. Then I went into EVERY episode and played one level until I 3 starred it.
For every episode from Ham Dunk all the way back to the very first episode, when ever I 3 starred a level, I got the 3 Star reward level as if I had never done it before.
This really bugs me as I had improved a couple of those levels and now they are ALL zeroed out.
I am on android. What platforms are you on @hoy49, @birdmeister, @karen68
@admins Not sure if this is listed as a bug for seasons but I gladly nominate it as one
@sparty83 I play on ipad. I played a couple of episodes too & lost the reward stars after getting just 3-stars on another, not a higher score. Interesting that it doesn’t take away the 3 stars in On Finn Ice, only the others.
This should definately go on the bug list.
@birdmeister thanks for the pic below, I see what you mean about the big cloud icon. Don’t have anything like that on my episode screen.
Thanks to both of you for the info. :)
I play with an Android tablet. I have stopped trying to improve my scores for right now until I find out this problem is solved. The ones that have been zeroed are difficult to get back to the score I already had. @sparty83
@karen68, this shows the cloud icons. I downloaded Cherry Blossom a week ago.
I do have a Rovio account.
Guess that blows my theory about being caused by the cloud download out of the water.
