Robot Dreams

Robots were a childhood dream of Hanspeter Arni, a dream that did not let him go. He told his father about his wish to get a robot. This one said: robots cannot replace human friends. Because they don't know you and don't care about you. Go and find friends and take care of them. He didn't get a robot then, but he made friends.

Years later he worked in half of Europe, travelling a lot. In Paris he saw on a Marché aux puces one who stood all alone and lost amidst much rubbish. Sure thing: Hanspeter Arni had to save this one. The beginning of a great passion.

Over the years, over five hundred robots and spacetoys.
