What would happen if I took a PS2 through airport security?

Not in my hand luggage.
But if I packed one in my case, plus some PS2 games would they be damaged or affected by the scanning equipment at the airport?
I want to take it for some relatives who live abroad.

Much more likely to be damaged by heavy handed / pushed for time baggage handlers.
Make sure it's well wrapped up in soft clothes or maybe some bubble wrap.
The x-ray scanners won't harm it.Russia is HERE0 -
Fab, thank you!

Last time, I managed to get four very well wrapped dinner plates through undamaged, so I'll be extra careful with the packing etc and hope for the best.Egg Loan - [strike]£4921.84[/strike] £0!! :j Barclaycard - £3866.47 Legal + Trade - [strike]£2700.96[/strike] £0!! :j Triton - [strike]£1730.89[/strike] £0!! :j Next - [STRIKE]£776.15[/STRIKE] £126.88 Littlewoods - [strike]£217.16[/strike] £0!! :j Housemate - [strike]£1300[/strike] £0!! :j Capital One - [STRIKE]£1652.51[/STRIKE] £1,081.58 Vanquis - [strike]£2337.75[/strike] £375.58

Once took a Nintendo GameCube through airport security and it worked fine afterwards.
Just ensure it is correctly and well packed (to prevent damage during baggage handling) and I guess it should be fine.Debt Free since March 2008
