Getting started with 3d

Does anyone have any good tutorials/pointers for someone who has no idea how to do 3d in flash…

Ive looked a bit at papervision3d and five3d, but firstly, im looking to do 3d in AS2 for now.

Mainly what i want to achieve is a simple way to transform existing movie clips, not create new things like spheres or cubes or whatever.

Anyone care to point me in the right direction?
