Equilateral Triangle Unit 1-A: Lesser Rhombicosidodecahedron (120 Units) by FUSE Tomoko. From Rittai mangekyou (Solid Figure Kaleidoscope).

From 120 units. Folded from 1x4 rectangles cut from 6.9cm squares.
Another solid I folded on the train trip to an interview:-)
I was
planning on folding all
Platonic and Archimedean Solids from the same unit but the unit doesn't work
well for faces with more than five corners and vertices of degree 3 (although
solids with triangular and square faces only seem to work okay even with
vertices of degree 3)... . Here's the others I've folded so far: 150
unit Snub Dodecahedron, 60 unit Snub Cube
and 60 unit
Icosidodecahedron.
