Here’s the pentagonal icositetrahedron. It is the dual of the snub cube.
And here is its third stellation. As you can see, it’s a compound of two irregular dodecahedra.

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.
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.

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.
