  1. Not sure about current, but it was in the past.
  2. Can't say I've seen many use them. I've never needed one, so far I've had plenty of time to be able to stop for a break, it's just another thing to check when packing and dressing.
  3. There is always an option to modify to an external battery, I've been using mine for the last 7 years without issue.
  4. Hello and welcome to the forum, this thread is a definite must for the first time builder Hope to see a build thread from you soon
  5. You can email the legion web team [email protected]

  7. Welcome back trooper, appears you already had an EIB approval #200, that was some time ago As you will have another set of armor I would re-apply, more info here https://www.whitearmor.net/forum/forum/18-fisd-expert-infantry-badge-eib-requirements/ Information on EIB costume approval for same costume versions https://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/50897-multiple eib award-recipients-updated-2024/ You will need TK 501st access to post for EIB approval Good luck trooper
  8. Cheers Mark
  9. Some great info on the ESB troopers here https://web.archive.org/web/20250212032223/http://starwarshelmets.com/original-ESB-stormtrooper-armor-helmets.htm
  10. And not working again
  11. Hang in there trooper, we've just finished elections and I'm not sure if you have a current or new GML, they may be learning. Also part of the approval process has to be completed by legion command so it can take some additional time. All being well you'll hear something soon
  12. I would wire it that way. The item on the right is basically an amplifier, pretty similar to and Aker amp More info in @ukswrath thread Option 3) Hovi Tips with speakers, iComm with rechargeable battery, Push To Talk cable, Omni-directional Headset Microphone, Amplifier w/ rechargeable battery & wall charger (This latest version amplifier is now included in all my audio systems at no extra charge. The amplifier has the ability to also power my SHA (hearing aid, sold separately), reducing the battery supply footprint inside the helmet. Average Amplifier battery run time with connected SHA is roughly 8hrs+)
  13. Have you had an ipod / MP3 player connected up previously? Looking at @ukswrathsales thread I'm not seeing any extra connections (unless these are from another maker) If you are not using an amp I would think your Ipod would need a connection between it and the hovi speakers, a Y connector may work, unfortunately I've not personally used mic speakers before.
  14. You may need to use a Y piece to allow an MP3 and Mic to work with your mic spealers. Photos of your setup would be handy.
  15. I've not seen that locally so interested in seeing how you go. Like any paint it does take some time to work out how heavy or light you can spray as well as distance from the piece. As I've said previously I found auto acrylic really the easiest of all the paints I've tried, very forgiving but sure you can still get runs. I've painted 3 sets of armor and 1/2 dozen helmets without much issues. I would suggest cleaning the spray tip between spraying as well as shaking the cans, no matter how long you have shaken it before you begin. One paint I did try with my Mandalorian was the 2K clear, love this stuff, expensive and highly toxic and you need to use the whole spray can once activated but what a finish, gives a deep look and very glossy, it also has very little orange peel due to how it dries. Hope you have better luck this time
  16. Just a couple of things you could address. Helmet appears to be sitting high, you may want to see if you can adjust the padding, or tilt the helmet back so there is not as much black showing. Looks like your shoulder straps are not under your elastic straps in the rear photo, they should also be centered to teh backplate. Also shins are not quite closed Brow trim is on an angle You may notice your posterior is sticking out, I came up with a V tab system which reduces this, may be worth a try. With a heat gun or oven you bend strips of ABS plastic into the shape of a V, only glue one side and the other remains free to allow movement when you bend. Just helps stop the butt plate from pushing back from the back plate.
  17. There is a build support group on Facebook which may be able to help you https://www.facebook.com/groups/tktalkie/
  18. Congratulations trooper and welcome to the Centurion ranks
  19. Good luck with approval, hope to see you approved very soon. Once you receive approval you can request higher TK access here Also with adding photos you need to use the link with the file extension ie: .jpp, .gif, .png, how to thread here Good luck
  20. Ipod / MP3 players plug into the amp in the auxiliary in on the side (if using an Aker amp)
  21. File Name: Dart Holder / Holder "Star Wars - Stormtrooper" Designer: PapDoc Last Update: 10/03/2026 File-https://makerworld.com/en/models/2505977-dart-holder-holder-star-wars-stormtrooper?from=search#profileId-2755251 Description: May the dart be with you! This two-part dart holder "Stormtrooper" in a Star Wars design is the ultimate eye-catcher for your gaming room or hobby den. Highlights: Space for 3 Darts: The base offers precisely fitting slots for a complete set (3 pieces) of darts. 2-Part Plug-in System: The model consists of the shield (flight design) and the base, which are simply plugged together. Star Wars Branding: The base features the classic "Star Wars" lettering. Multi-Color Design: The model is optimized for printing with AMS and uses 3 colors (black, white, and gray) for maximum detail. Printing Notes: AMS Required: For optimal results, 3 filaments are needed simultaneously. Assembly: Simply insert the back shield into the designated groove on the base – no glue needed! Images:
  22. It's odd they changed the mesh, original hovi's mesh is a lot smaller than what was seen on screen RS EIB approval Screen reference CRL EIB Screens used shall be of a wide type mesh
  23. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1NkirM6MR5KRTWzG1dUNSEallxJMcER3NJbSPg9lLicQ/edit?usp=sharing Add your MP3 Player to auxiliary input of your amp img16_110x110_crop_center.avif img16_110x110_crop_center.avif
  24. You can go up in size for your coverstrips, we normally try to add any extra to the rears as the public mostly see the fronts. Note some screen photos show quite a lot of area before the ridges If you go wider on the front of your shins I would also do the same to the thighs so they match, won't look out of place then As always it is entirely up to your GML as they will be looking after your approval.
