Transformer is an enemy appearing only in the 2-Player Game mode of Kirby's Dream Course. It is a small, red slot machine, sporting three strands of bright yellow hair, large eyes at the top of its head, and blue feet.

If Kirby or Keeby defeats it by bumping into it, the power display turns into a slot machine. This slot machine does not appear if the player pressed A while it was hit. Transformers are unique in that they have the ability to provide every single Copy Ability in Kirby's Dream Course, those being Burning, Freeze, Hi-Jump, Needle, Normal, Parasol, Spark, Stone, Tornado, UFO and Wheel. Kirby or Keeby will receive one of these at random depending on the timing on when the player presses the A Button on the slot machine, similar to the Mix ability. It should be noted, however, that it is possible to receive no ability at all from the Mix, or even lose the ability that Kirby or Keeby had as a result.
