...You'd rather have a hoverboard than a MECH!?!?!?!

Yeah, you just try building a working mech and being allowed to keep it.
YOu'll have the police, the army, the fbi and all sorts of other people jumping all over you.
With a hoverboard youve at least got some sort of chance.
PLus, a hover board would be a lot more fun to ride on.

But if you had a mech you could take them all down.

As long as it has railgun-launched nuclear warheads, I'd be happy.

I'd be happy with just the railgun.
