The beads used to make jewelry. Come in many shapes (spheres, cones,
cubes
etc.). With a bit of imagination, they can be glued together into
spaceship-like shapes. Add bits and pieces, paint up and you have a
cheap
collection of spaceships - unless you use real gold beads ;-) Especially
suited to 1950's style assembled ships or something like the ship from
2001.

I remember seeing a website with them once, but seem to have lost the
URL.
