A mass produced F-Skewb in shape of a biscribed truncated octahedron.

This is a mass produced version of Timur Evbatyrov's F-Skewb. In contrast to the three years older predecessor this puzzle has the shape of a biscribed truncated octahedron which is a biscribed non-chiral solid. It could be confused with a truncated octahedron an archimedean solid but that would have had regular hexagons. It is really similar to the Gem 4 but there is more «simplicity» to it. The Gem 5 is a «lite» version. The 4th Gem is a full hybrid of the rainbow cube and a skewb hex with every face performing both, the 5th is a semi-hybrid with 4 faces turning like a rainbow cube and 4 others like a skewb hex.
This puzzle is produced with black, white and purple body. In addition there are four different versions with coloured plastic pieces and without stickers.
