Then you should probably narrow it down between Away3D and Papervision3D. Adobe is announcing 3D support for the Flash player at Max in October it sounds like, but that's a ways off.
I know Papervision3D can do what you're asking.

The app is part of a large project, and I want it to be able to grow overtime. A solid engine is hence required. The models will range from soccer balls, rugby ball, hand ball ... to shirts, sockets and so on. But I'd like to be able to extend to any kind of 3d model over time. We might also model a full character to 'wear' the products.
