This is a silly question, but I don't have any one else to ask it to.
When I was a child there was someone in my block who had a toy like this, it is made of two pieces that are joined by some elastic bands, on one side they form an "X" and in the other side they're parallel. You place a picture or a bank note in one side and then you show it to the other person and by "magic" the photo changes to the other side.

Origami is like food. You can love it and be obese. Or you can hate it and be and be a"cute". Or you can be a fail and your just that. A fail. Flickr : http://www.flickr.com/photos/76647015@N08/?saved=1

There is actually a tutorial to make an origami version of that somewhere, I forget where though.

Re: What's the name of this toy?
I first saw such a thing under the name of a reversable wallet.
I've also had a toy like that though with more panels and it was called a jacobs ladder.
