What Turbo Schwag Would You Buy?

[Joe Redifer]

Hi.  I recently got this great catalog with a TurboGrafx-16 CD game I purchased for cheap, and I want to order some stuff from it.  What would YOU order from it???

I've already sent lots of money and I'm waiting by the mailbox for the stuff to come.

Splatterhouse Tee, definitely.

but... Turbo green? I don't recall that shade of green on any turbo goods...

Dude, I have/used to have that flyer. I think it came with the first TurboGrafx-16 console I got for Christmas 1990. Either that or it came with one of the early games I bought.

I used to have one of those thermoses (the green one) and I always wanted one of those duffel bags. Damn that shit looks dated now.

Oh, and I had one of the Bonk's Adventure t-shirts too.

This image was posted before on either the old Working Design's site or the old Turbo Station site here on PCEFX. Thanks for bringing it back to life because I haven't seen it in years!

I would totally take the Turbo Shades.

You wouldn't buy the Bloody Wolf t-shirt?  Or the football?  Why are you such a H8R?

I would buy the Turbo Shades and the duffel bag.

I would rock the entire wardrobe + a mullet whig from Spencers.

Thanks for sharing, Joe.  What size is that thing anyway?  Does anyone know what the 'turbo-charged gift with every order' was?  I'll want one of everything except for the super lame hats, so I suppose that I should order each item seperately to get a bunch of free turbo-charged gifts.

I don't remember why or how, but I seem to recall having had the Turbo Football, the green Turbo Hat, and a Turbo Wallet, probably orange. I can't imagine I would have bought them and I'm not sure why my parents would have, but darnit, I'm relatively certain I used to have them.

WHAT?? NO FANNY PACK?? garbage!!

My memory is a little foggy because this was almost 20 years ago but I think they just included one of the other, less expensive items. In my case I got the Bonk t-shirt and got the green thermos for free.

Haha! I love it!! I also had that flyer. It came with my TG-16 I also got iChristmas of '89.

heh. I'm totally for the Bloody Wolf t-shirt, though I'm not so sure about the football.

This Turbo stuff is so tubular!  I love the neon hats with the rope along the rim. lol The Turbo wallets are cool. Who needs a passport when you have your Klax HuCARD?

But I'm definitely going to the Shirtshack and getting a couple of Turbografx shirts done up. I think a t-shirt with a HuCARD on it would be awesome. Just what HuCARD?

Since they're still copyrighted images, they may give you guff.

if you can get away with it, you could try arranging a bunch of hucards into a heart shape, get a pic of your favorite CD (or eye of the beholder?), and arrange them so it says (eye) (heart) (TG16 logo).
you could do the same for a particular genre, for example, shmups.

Klax.  Since it doubles as a passport, it might also double as other types of ID.

I vote for photoshopping Splatterhouse's artwork onto a HuCard.  Why are so many HuCards devoid of artwork anyway?

As long as he adds some sort of 'TG-16 Rules' message, then it would fall under fair use for the purposes of commentary and criticism.
