TK Monkus

Thanks, you're awesome!

Hey Justin, Thanks for the link to the glue. If that is what he usually uses, maybe I should get this one instead of the above linked. Re the position selector, I didn't even realize that was missing! Went back and looked at my original approval pics and I think it was never added on! Haha. Probably part of the hustle and bustle of that time, but if you had an extra, I would glue that in as well. Thanks for pointing that out. I can DM you my address and happy to cover shipping.

Hey Joseph, Much appreciated. Will give it a good rub with some sand paper before re applying. Thanks for the tip. M

Oh awesome! Will order some of this and give it a shot. Thanks!

Hello All, I have a rubber E-11 that I got from Hellhounds back in 2022. It has been great through troops and cons, but this year at Comic Con a few pieces have started to come unglued (luckily walking back on the last day!). I was wondering if there is any specific sort of glue that I should use to put them back on? I was thinking just some super glue, but maybe a rubber glue is better? See below a few pics of the pieces that have come off. Thanks for any insight. Thanks, M

Sorry for the super late reply and thanks for the response. I do have the whole back piece glued down. The elastic has some give, but I don't have to pull on it a lot to get the hooks in. I used some pliers to rebend/reshape the hook and that seemed to help.

Awesome, thanks! May give the velcro a try. M

Hello, When I built my TK I used the bra strap closure method on my shins. The metal ends are becoming deformed and hard to get into the holes on the other end. I am wondering what other people have done instead of the bra strap closure and if there is a better way to close the shins? It is also a hassle getting them out at the end of a troop so ideally would like to just find a new way to securely close my shins. Thanks, M

Thanks for the info. I usually wipe the armor down after a troop, but just want to make sure storing it in a non temp controlled area won't have lasting negative effects as well. Thanks, M

Hello All, I have my armor in a big pelican case, and have had it inside the house in a closet for storage. Space is now getting limited and I think I may need to move it into the garage. I am in Southern California so there is not necessarily any crazy weather, but lows would be maybe 40º F in winter and highs would be around 100ºF in summer as it is not at all insulated or climate controlled. I am wondering if that would hurt the armor over time, maybe make it more brittle or something? It is RS ABS if that makes any difference. Thanks in advance. M

@BAZINGA and @gmrhodes13 Awesome, thanks for the input. Going to place an order. M

Hello, I have been wanting to get a voice system for my TK for a while and have just been dragging my feet. Whenever I troop I wish I had it instead of talking through the helmet. With LA Comic Con coming up in October I want to try and get this sorted by then. I am looking to get the icomm from here: https://voicebooster.com/products/icomm-imperial-communication-system Wondered if that is still the one to get and also which amp is the one most people use. Is 10W enough or should I look for more? Battery time is also something I wonder about. The 10W looks like it has 6-8 hours, so wondered if that is accurate. Looks like they sell everything I would need on the voice booster site. (iComm and amp). I am in the US also if that makes a difference. Thanks, M

Thank you! Yes, I would be very curious to see your process and it may be helpful for other troopers as well. M

Requesting Centurion certificate Matthew Landes TK66007 Centurion Letter TKSpartan Much appreciated and thank you for all your help through my whole build! M My pleasure, sir! https://www.whitearmor.net/eib/certificates/66007-centurion.png

Glen how did you even see that?! I have never even noticed this haha. When looking at the pants there is a black sticker on them that when the light hits it just right does have a "glare". Eagle eyes on you! I will definitely look at doing that or trying to just peel off. Thank you also for all your help through my whole process, could not have gotten here without yours and many other peoples help from the FISD! Thank you, M
