Multiple transformer

Multiple transformer
Transformer Trans*form"er, n. 1. One who, or that which, transforms. Specif. (Elec.), an apparatus for producing from a given electrical current another current of different voltage. [1913 Webster]

2. (1990's) a toy consisting of a figure or representation of an object, constructed of interlocking parts in such a way that a series of turning or twisting motions of the parts can transform the object from one type of object to a different type of object, such as from an animal to an automobile. [PJC]
