After War Gundam X is real!

The bit at the very end about who you won't find in New York is because this was also the week of Super Bowl XIX and Reagan's 2nd inauguration.

The Captain saves the day by being the one to get through to someone. Our heroes just make it back before the base is destroyed. Massively tonally different stories with different stakes but it rhymed in my head.
