contents We discover a novel class of dissipative light bullets whose spatial profiles may be drastically reshaped along the bulk, edges and corners of the Su-Schrieffer-Heeger lattice owing to the dissipative and topological nature of the system. These light bullets appear due to resonances with different modes in lattice spectrum and may have very rich shapes that can be adiabatically controlled by varying the frequency of the external laser source. We report on robust stationary bullets and breathers which are understood from the corresponding bifurcation analysis. Our results provide a new route to realisation of reconfigurable and robust 3D light forms in topologically nontrivial systems.
