Click a thumbnail to see its larger version and description.
A corner turning dodecahedron resembling a Curvy Starminx but working like the Rex Dodecahedron.

This puzzle looks similar to a Curvy Starminx, but it is a deeper cut corner turning dodecahedron, with no fixed centers. Its closest relative so far is the Rex Dodecahedron. Unlike that the Radio 3 adds a corner piece.
It makes sens to compares this puzzle with the Curvy Starminx. Image 9 compares both puzzles.
It can quickly become confusing. With its curvy cuts, it turns quite smoothly and gives a nice overall look. This puzzle is about the same size as a standard megaminx and is very stable. This puzzle shape-shifts and is a very tricky to solve.
