Set of 13 semi-regular convex polyhedra composed of regular polygons meeting in identical vertices, excluding the 5 Platonic solids (which are composed of only one type of polygon) and excluding the prisms and antiprisms.

Each shape can be constructed by starting with one of the Platonic solids and truncating it's corners or edges in various ways.
