  Actually, it came to me after watching the recent LEGO movie!
  
  I have also seen such a model in a Japanese lab and found that it was a very good way to visualise the nuclei: the colours give you a sense of the radioactivity, the relief a gauge of the magnitude.
  
  And who wouldn’t want to play… heu, work, I mean, with LEGO!?
