Where to find kinetic art?

Where can I find or purchase mobile or kinetic sculpture, ideally of the kind that is featured about halfway through IRON MAN 2, when Tony Stark is talking to "Pepper" Potts in her office and is distracted by the kinetic art on her desk?
Not cheap, but Think Geek is selling it.

The generic term of art for these things is often "executive toy". The canonical example is Newton's cradle. Sharper Image used to be the place to find them until they moved into high-end electronics; I don't know about the current catalog operation (the stores closed, I gather). Typical vendors would be e.g. American Science and Surplus.
