In geometry, a truncated cuboctahedral prism or great rhombicuboctahedral prism is a convex uniform polychoron (four-dimensional polytope).

It is one of 18 convex uniform polyhedral prisms created by using uniform prisms to connect pairs of Platonic solids or Archimedean solids in parallel hyperplanes.

A full snub cubic antiprism or omnisnub cubic antiprism can be defined as an alternation of an truncated cuboctahedral prism, represented by ht0,1,2,3{4,3,2}, or , although it cannot be constructed as a uniform polychoron. It has 76 cells: 2 snub cubes connected by 12 tetrahedrons, 6 square antiprisms, and 8 octahedrons, with 48 tetrahedrons in the alternated gaps. There are 48 vertices, 192 edges, and 220 faces (12 squares, and 16+192 triangles). It has [4,3,2]+ symmetry, order 48.
