The Eleventh Stellation of the Truncated Octahedron Is an Interesting Polyhedral Compound
This compound has three parts: two tetrahedra, plus one smaller cube. I made it using Stella 4d: Polyhedron Navigator, which you can try for free at http://www.software3d.com/Stella.php.
A Compound of the Great Stellated Dodecahedron and the Great Dodecahedron
In the picture above, each component of this compound has its own color. In the one below, each set of parallel faces is given a color of its own.

A Compound of Three Trapezohedra
I came across this little beauty while exploring stellations of the triakis octahedron, which is the dual of the truncated cube. Its three components are each eight-faced trapezohedra, and it showed up as the sixth in that stellation-series.

The Eighteenth Stellation of the Rhombicosidodecahedron Is an Interesting Polyhedral Compound
The 18th stellation of the rhombicosidodecahedron, shown above, is also an interesting compound. The yellow component of this compound is the rhombic triacontahedron, and the blue-and-red component is a “stretched” form of the truncated icosahedron.
