Simple shapes resources

Hi all,
Would it be possible for someone to put together a set of simple shapes as a resource? I've used Torque to teach kids about game design for a while, and the hardest part is always importing models.
What I'm thinking is a simple cube, sphere, triangle, donut, etc. that has a texture/set of textures mapped to it. That way, when people are starting, they can be shown Torquescript for:
Add Sphere,
Add Texture to Sphere
Set Texture animation to rotating
Move sphere
..etc..
I think a few simple "back to basics" tools would be most helpful for educators/beginners.
Thanks in advance!

The one that will best fit your needs is a cube that you can map Material's to via the Inspector in the World Editor. You can then flip over to the Material Editor and start playing with the properties of that Material (like texture animation).
