Communication Tower Upgrade Intro and Issues to Fix Aug 24 & Feb - April 2025


Upgrading the Communication Towers


The Communication Towers Component Parts Have Wery Weak Connections and Keep Breaking


The aerials or communication towers were loosely put together in layers glued together, but lacking a interlocking structure or more so a central spine / tang all the way through the towers the act like Lego. They break apart like layered Lego thats not interlocked. In fact, they break simply by opening the wings hard or any knocking against anything such as the roof of a car when placing it in the car as cannot handle any sheer force.


  • Many of the layers had vary little surface areas to glue and little if any interlocking so for the most part different glues were not helpful.
  • Parts Falling Off
  • Unstable base





  • I needed replacement with a system with a full-length core, ideally a metal rod running though all the parts into the superstructure of the tower.
  • What would be ideal would be a system there the communication towers are solid when in place but can be removed for transportation & storage.
  • Ned to secure any bitbash to it stays attached.


The metal component towers are parts I got from Prop House Bob's Bits.


They also need more detail.

The sides lack any details and need kit bashing.
