I'd love to play with fischertechnik again...

https://www.fischertechnik.de/en/industry-and-universities -- Factorio on a shelf would be neat (but "request quote" tends to suggest its out of my price range https://www.studica.com/fischertechnik/fischertechnik-factor... )

I first saw fischertechnik at an engineering expo at the local university in the 80s. There was a terminal and you'd enter the type of candy you wanted, and it had a robotic system that got it from the shelving... which was neat. The backside of it had another robotic system that got a piece of candy from a conveyer belt (of many different ones), identified it, and put it in the now empty spot.
