Personally, I use Rhino3d to take care of my 3d needs.  The program

doesn't animate, so I have to do a little 'clay-like' animation frame

by frame.  But the good thing about this particular program is that

it exports my objects as .ai files which import seamlessly into Flash.

I save all my frames in a sequence with Rhino and then Flash imports it all 

in one click.  I then do a little erasing of the extra lines then add the 

gradients and then I'm done.  There's even a beta out now for registered 

users that allows hidden-line rendering making the tedious line-erasing 

process obsolete.  Price for this program is $795, I believe.  It is a very, 

very good program for NURBS modelling.  I, however, got it at the student 

price of $195.
