Best StarWars StormTrooper Helmet Voice/COMM System - 501st Legion UKsWrath's Kit Install and Review

[@DustinDunnill]

Sorry guys, here's the updated links to UKsWrath Kits. Also got the links up under the vid in description goo.gl/WBGaFR The best I've tested so far. Cooling fan system goo.gl/A8Rp9z This system really brought the armor to life and was awesome not to have to worry about any wires coming out of the helmet. Just power up and put it on. I've tested some others where the speakers are in the chest armor but you have to run the mic wire up into helmet and it is a hassle. Much better with this kit since it's all self contained in the helmet. A fun Halloween this year. I've put up a short 1min video of my escapade at work with armor on my INSTAGRAM here instagram.com/dustindunnill/ Check it out..lol :) 👍

[@bengrondin1760]

Thanks for the info.and video. I'll have to wait a bit before it is in my budget but it IS going on my bucket list. PS.....no pun intended there lol

[@kevingreenfield9204]

Hello Dustin my name is Kevin green field ok, I have a ESB storm trooper helmet and don't know how I would put my metal hovi tips in the front of my helmet , and also I have 2 electronical small fans and toggle switch and 9 volt battery and connectors and I have a voice amplifier system and microphone head set and I'm not sure if this goes into my armour or not because it's quite big and square and I want some help with these so Dustin can you help me as I'm at home all by myself.kevin green field.

I noticed that too lol. Still pretty cool though besides that.

Just start at the 501st forum and find a voice box you want and go from there. Those guys will point you in the right direction for everything from ideas to full costumes. They also share tips on how make costumes less of a pain to wear.

[@JustJacob441]

I'll be honest this is pretty dope. I'm thinking about doing my own StormTrooper Helmet, but personalise it to be more me, make it red, put in this type of audio system. But you can get a small wireless Bluetooth Aux connection thing that I might put in so I can Bluetooth to the headset itself. I think it'd work, hopefully. Pull some old headphones apart and put them in for music and can also be extra cushioning. The fans look great I like that and really would be needed. Also there's these "Chemion Glasses" that I've bought a while back, And I think it'd be mad if I somehow pulled them apart and put them in each eye. If not, having a simple LED strip in there would also be cool. Might effect my vision but it'd look cool. I'll definitely use your video as a guide. Mine might be a really long project but I hope it works for me. Thanks again my dude 👌

[@hanskurtmann6781]

I got a hero set about 10yrs ago or before Lucasfilm sued him, but the helmet and torso armor is signed by Andrew himself so its in storage. I bought a stunt outfit that I use for display and a Tie pilot. I knew Andrew for quite some time I was buying his products when most did not know about them. Also met him personally when I visited shepperton studios in 2015. I still chat with him via phone every so often very nice chap. I don't cosplay but I do like 1:1 figures so I also have a Boba Fett, Darth Vader, Predator, T-800 of course ;) and just picked up a Grogu and waiting on my pre-paid Mandaloarian 1:1 bust wish they made a fullsize figure though. Most if not all from Sideshow Thanks for this I wanted to put in a voice thingy for my static stormtrooper to play sound files your speaker system looks good I'll give it a go.

[@DustinDunnill]

Sounds like an awesome collection Hans 🍻

Awesome video! I was wondering if it was also possible with this installation to pitch the voice so that you can sound like a death trooper or Kylo Ren Through his mask or if this is strictly only for Storm Troopers

[@ericalvarez9345]

Why does the helmet look all warped or melted

[@fragban5994]

Vanilla Gomez Because it’s made from the original mold used in a new hope which was hand made, so it’s not symmetrical. It’s actually 100% screen accurate.

[@ericalvarez9345]

FragBan Ah that makes sense, after a while I was starting to think that maybe it was due to the wide fov of the camera lol thanks for sharing!

[@alaskadude6221]

You should consider putting the batter somewhere else instead of on your face. I imagine you could run a wire under a turtle neck to attach into the helmet and be hidden. The battery down in your belt or something for easier removal/charging and easier on/off of helmet.

[@DustinDunnill]

Good idea. Just wanted everything in the helmet for easier trooping and resting. I've delt with a few cables between helmet and body in the past and it gets really frustrating when helmet goes off and on the head a few times 🍻.

[@Scott_A]

Id be more worried about the lithium burns. The chance of the powerbank catching fire may be extremely small but lithium is mental when it goes up. If it lit up in that spot it would melt cheek, lips, nose and eyes just in the few seconds it'd take to remove the helmet. I can understand not wanting wires running to the chest area so mayb place battery at the back of the helmet,

[@SoundGuyDavo]

Idk if you’ve been to Disney World but the systems they’re using in the StormTroopers there sound top notch. I wonder what they’re using ?!

[@moneyreign1420]

I believe they use a prerecorded voice box. Their hand gestures trigger which lines to say

Just how I built it in video. I was thinking of some upgrades like sound proofing and cosmetic trim inside 🍻

[@ChairFTW-]

did the helmet have a stroke?

[@johndough5748]

Hey dustin, how much extra heat is in the helmet because of all the power running in there, even with the fans on, do you have a time frame for what might be the longest you could wear the helmet with all of that running in it?

[@DustinDunnill]

I wear the suit on Halloween on occasion and have the helmet on for about hour constantly in hot and humid Hawaii climate without issue. Stays nice and cool with the fans. Before the mod it was almost intolerable to wear and fogged the lenses constantly as just an empty helmet.

Pretty cool! Have you thought about making the components body mounted and running the wiring harness under your shirt collar? Might reduce the weight and heat in the helmet.

[@DustinDunnill]

Originally had it in the chest piece and was a major hassle. Everything in helmet is much better.

[@OmeSlikkumGaming]

Hi. Because of your video I orderd this kit, just waiting to arrive. Can you show us more about your other costumizations? Like the head strap and how you put the glasses in? My bucket just got in and is still standard. So I'm looking for ways to make it more comfortable. Thx

Remove the head strap from a construction hard hat and glue into helmet. Cut and glue your tint of choice behind the eye holes.
