A transforming robot is a robot that can change to take on the appearance or form of another object.
This type of robot was a very popular toy concept in the 1980s;[1] such toy robots could typically morph from a humanoid form to that of a vehicle, animal, or commonplace object.
The transformation generally was by physically folding/bending/twisting and locking the robot's parts into the new shape, and it very rarely involved disassembling (physically separating) the parts and re-assembling them.
