Ghost Floppy Cube
The Ghost Floppy Cube is a variation of the Floppy Cube where the cuts are irregular. Look carefully and you can see that this is not a 1x3x3 puzzle. There are 5 edge pieces and 5 corners and you can turn the puzzle along any one of the 5 corner-edge-corner axes.
The irregular piece shapes mean that this is a shape-changing puzzle. The corners can be moved around the puzzle and can be twisted when in place. The edge pieces do not move but, as with the floppy cube, they can be twisted. It is not trivial to solve but not overly difficult. Start by placing and orienting the edges in place. Then move the corners to the correct places. A corner will untwist if taken on a journey around the puzzle. At the end, you'll might be left with a few twisted corners that you need to untwist without messing up the rest of the puzzle.
