This puzzle can made by dissasembling 2 Pyramorphixes and taking all the points from the Pyra's and combining them to one puzzle. The leftover pieces can form a Gem (Okki) puzzle.
The stickers on parallel planes are the same colour. Each piece is therefore mirrored, making a relatively simple puzzle a little more difficult.
Its shape is called "Stellated octahedron".

No later than 2009 Mefferts presented his own version named "Pyrastar". In 2017 Mefferts represented through recenttoys the mini version shown in images 6-8.
