A corner turning dodecahedron (or face turning icosahedron) transformed into the shape of a rhombic triacontahedron.

This puzzle shares its axis system with the Pentagram, the Defti and all other corner turning dodecahedra and face turning icosahedra. Like the aforementioned puzzles it allows jumbling turns. I has the same piece types as the Pentagram although the Pentagram has some half-hidden (means: visible but usually not stickered) pieces which are visible and stickered in this puzzle.
Since this new puzzle has the shape of a rhombic triacontahedron (a catalan solid) and therefore the same symmetry group as dodecahedron and icosahedron this puzzle does not change its shape if jumbling is ignored.
Piece type signature: DC2[F3 C4 E3 X9 T12][F3 C4]
Edge length: 32 mm
Weight: 145 grams
