Toys For Boys

The traffic started pouring in after an hour into the festival. Most of the early visitors consisted of average people who wanted to avoid the crowded main hall. The opening ceremony started off with a bang. If not for the main hall's excellent isolation, the side halls would have been inundated with music and cheers.

Ves got a notion of how well his show models attracted attention when he noticed a lot of foot traffic heading in his direction. Only around ten percent of the show models in the hall consisted of premium mechs.

The Caesar Augustus drew the most attention, but the Marcus Aurelius also held a certain appeal. A loose variety of visitors arrived at his booth to gawk at the expensive models up close.

"They're just like the masterwork models at the show halls!"

"What is this design? The Caesar Augustus?"

"Oh. Let's go then. I heard the Augustus was a flop."

"Are you kidding? You're blind if you call this mech a flop! Just look at the detail of this machine!"
