Nando, the robot remote control!

We are in the 50's science fiction is now an established literary genre.
In the imagination of men is only a matter of years to get to the moon or be able to create a robot that man can plan for him to walk, let him pick up objects, talk about it and even get him in space. And these dreams are found in the futuristic science fiction from 1940 that lives its "golden age" and, of course, toys that are produced in that period.
In America and Germany, but primarily in Japan are manufactured in tin robots that walk, rotate, stop and change direction, Lucette with flashing lights, sounds, space ... and with names like Planet Robot, Thunder Robot, Robot Atom, Space Explorer, all names that suggest an adventurous world of the future. A world where children play, they can make real sci-fi technologies and intergalactic travel.
Here, whereas in high-tech, all this was happening in those years was born in Italy, produced by Opset , a small robot made of tin, with eyes and mouth smiling, without Lucette, without sound, with a blower mechanism that allowed him to walk and turn his head. The face, squared, was drawn by a simple decal, a face ... "naive".
A small robot with a name that fits perfectly: Nando.
We had in Our showroom a few years ago, when my brother took him in the study it was love at first sight. Perhaps because it was so little (it was high about 13 cm.), Perhaps because I was smiling, maybe because all his naivete, however, was the cousin of technological Planet Robot, Thunder Robot, etc. ... I picked up, I cleaned up pretty well, and it was really incredible conditions, you can see it too. It 'very little time left in our showroom. He found almost immediately that a collector (I can not think of it as an object, sorry!) Adopted him.
If anyone knows please tell me something about the company that produced it, or if someone has played as a child and wants tell me something then I'll be happy.
I really wanted to love this robot, which has won even a full page photo in the book "Future Toys" Emchowicz Antoni and Paul Nunneley.
A kiss to you and the little one Nando

In other news ... Toptoys! A show

Here in blog I always talked about painting, because this is my passion.

But my job is another, which I find equally fascinating: I deal with toys.

My brother, my sister and I have a company founded in 2003 ( Toptoys Ltd) who buys and sells vintage toys and collectibles.

It 's a company born out of love for the games of yesteryear, to the fabulous Dinky Toys and Corgi for which we did as children run along the buffet house, where we played with the Policar dreaming of being pilots Formula 1, for Barbie dolls and we dressed and combed Furga creating beautiful stories, for all these games and others that when we resume in hand we still give rise to a spontaneous smile on his lips.

So I came across the beautiful game, that every collector would like to have and I'm lucky to hold, even for a short time, in our hands.

We sell a lot with the auctions on Ebay where we are known as toptoys -italy, and recently with the Ebay store toptoys -shop.

Our work does not end there, however: our most recent initiative is the organization of an event on the vintage toys and collectibles: the Exhibition Toptoys which has now reached its fourth edition! The organized twice a year, in autumn and spring. The next event is just the IV Exhibition Toptoys be held Ergife Palace Hotel in Rome Sunday, March 29 . Here is the flyer.

There will be more than one hundred exhibitors who come from all over Italy (north, central, south, islands!) To offer to visitors at any scale model cars, slot cars, tin toys, antique dolls and fashion dolls, Barbie (which this' years is 50 years old and if you take them too well!), trains, soldiers, space toys, robots, kits, soft toys, action figures, toys, 80s ... as well as books and articles on rare and curious.

In short, there is really all we have with us the TOPMODEL COLLECTION producing cars in 1:43 scale.

'll put some pictures of the show (which I hope will do) and in an upcoming post I will discuss a toy that years ago we had and that I should still have some pictures. It was beautiful, a little robot of Italian brand with the unlikely name "Nando".

Hello, a kiss,
