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
