Additional Notes:
Dutch ..... Speelgoed in de vorm van een icosidodecaëder (een soort veelvlak) die lijkt op een geodetische koepel; het kan worden opgevouwen tot een fractie van zijn uitgeklapte vorm door middel van schaarachtige bewegingen van de onderdelen. 
German ..... Spielzeug mit der Struktur eines Ikosidodekadodekaeders – einer Unterart des Polyhedrons –, das einer geodätischen Kuppel gleicht; es lässt sich auf einen Bruchteil seines aufgeklappten Volumens zusammenfalten dank scherenähnlicher Bewegungen der Gelenke.
