Universe[]
Now you see them, now you don't.
The Mutants, along with other non-show Beast Machines era characters the Dinobots and the Wreckers, report to the Oracle and are given a mission to fulfill to save Cybertron's future. It was all a set-up however, by Cryotek and the Quintessons, and the Mutants are led instead to their apparent deaths by Sharkticons.
IDW Beast Wars comics continuity[]
Icebird was one of the many protoforms from the remaining Axalon stasis pods to be reactivated by Razorbeast. He and his fellow Mutants took up residence in a swamp. When a Predacon scouting party intruded on their home, Icebird was the first Mutant they spotted. Their leader Transquito followed him, fooled by his seemingly-harmless owl mode. Once he had lured him into a remote location, Icebird transformed into his bear mode and mauled the hapless Predacon while declaring that both Maximals and Predacons were unwelcome in the Mutants' lands.

Toys[]
Beast Wars[]
- Icebird (Mutant, 2000)
- Icebird was a deluxe-sized toy, and could transform between an owl and a polar bear. He had a small panel on his front right bear leg that could be lifted to reveal mechanical parts. His robot head could be revealed by lifting the panel behind the polar bear head.
Trivia[]
- Icebird is the only one of the Mutants whose 2 beast modes are of animals that are commonly used by only one of the factions in Beast Wars (in this case a mammal and a bird which are 2 of the common beast modes selected by Maximals) rather than each one being based on a different animal that both Maximals and Predacons use.
