ABSTRACT:
A transformable combination of linked polyhedra which includes a set of a plurality of objects each having at least first and second faces and a member for connecting adjacent objects in a manner which allows rotation of one object while an adjacent object is fixed so that the position of the first and second faces of the one object can be changed with respect to the position of the adjacent object. Preferably, the connecting member is a corner connector which includes a straight or bent rod member having first and second rotatable end members which facilitate rotation of the objects. Also, a single continuous connecting member may be used to join all objects in the set.
