"That NES system is great -- fixed up an old TV for it and the whole thing works great. Thanks again."
Shipwreck inspects the stuff. "What's the badge? Flying Legion. Hey, snazzy! Now I'm a member of TWO elite units." He grins and fastens it to his sailor's hat. That's the kind of thing that isn't exactly military spec, but when you're a G.I.Joe, they don't really care that much.
"And check out these old magazines! Kid down the street had a trunk of these he got off his old man. Doc Savage, all that old-timey stuff. Crazy!"
And there are *smokes*. "Glad you got the game thing working. I can't get Mainframe's to do shit. I got it to turn on, and then my little man realizes I'm playing and kills himself. I swear to God."
