A skewb is a deep-cut puzzle, and a pyraminx is not, but they are both 4-axis puzzles.
That's a good point! And now that I think about it, maybe the Jing's pyraminx actually is a shape mod of the skewb? Jing's pyraminx has four centers and four corners which are akin to the eight corners of the skewb? o_O

So yeah, we have enough shape mods of pyraminx, skewb, and NxN. We need more megaminx and square-1 shape mods!

Yes there are tons of shape mods for NxN, skewb and pyraminx mass produced already.
NxN: miror cubes, morphixes, axis cubes, fisher cubes, windmill cubes, ghost cubes, crazy cubes...
Skewb: golden dodecahedron, golden cube, mixup skewb, maple leaf skewb, ghost pyraminx, jing pyraminx, multi skewb, container cube...
Pyraminx: crazy pyraminx, ivy cube, volcano cube, corner twist pyramid, bead pyramid, boomerang pyramid, windmill pyramid, maple leaf pyramid, triangle pyramid, yeet ball…
However, there are really not many for megaminx. There are only phoenix megaminx, crazy megaminx, and hexaminx. Hope the Lee mirror megaminx will be released soon with a reasonable price.

Cubicle had a video interview with Jiang Ganyuan, founder of Gan, back in November.
He says Gan will be releasing a 5x5 and SQ1, just after 3:07 in this video -
A Gan staff mentioned in a livestream in China yesterday that the gan 5x5 and square-1 will probably be released next year.
