Ranchoth's Arsenal is a Shapeways store run by a guy called Nicholas Gaston, which sells 3D printed models of a variety of model accessory parts with a distinctly What-If flavour. He makes the EXINT pod models which myself and a few other people on here have bought, and he makes a wide variety of tac nukes and oddball weapons, both real, projected, and alleged. Well worth a look:

If something in the listings looks stupidly expensive, click on it anyway and check the scale options: some of the listing default to large scales and the 1/72nd versions are more reasonable.

His latest addition is this gorgeous thing in 1/35th (other scales to follow):

Bell Aerospace Jet Flying Belt

It would be.  However i'm not sure why one would purchase it when one can organically produce ones own example ready for dispatch to the recipient of choice...
