A friend of mine has a set of pentominoes called ``Quintillions'',
available from
Kadon Enterprises, Inc.
1227 Lorene, Suite 16
Pasadena MD 21122
Basic Quintillions is a set containing the twelve planar
pentominoes for $29.00. Super Quintillions is a set containing the
nonplanar pentominoes for $39.00. (The literature says there are
eighteen pieces, but I think there are only seventeen nonplanar
pentominoes. Perhaps they include some extra piece so you can make
a 3x5x6 rectangular prism) The basic set is a high-quality puzzle,
each piece laser-cut from a single piece of wood, with a velour
box.
If you want to make your own, you can glue little cubes together.
Here are patterns for the planar pentominoes:

For the nonplanar pieces, let U, D, and B stand for cubes on the
upper level, lower level, and both levels. The pieces I know of
are as follows, where an asterisk denotes a piece that can be
reflected to form a new piece:
