Hmm, I can't tell whether you're working under the assumption that 6-slotting all your shield toggles will make you stronger, or that you've chosen sets with the best bonuses.
Unfortunately, neither is true. TI, UY, Invinc, Tough and Weave typically need only 4 slots to be fully slotted--56% res/def enhancement and 40-50% end reduction. (Tough Hide doesn't need end reduction at all.)
The only time you'd want to 5 or 6 slot a toggle is if it gets you a very desirable set bonus. In this case I can't tell why you chose the sets you did, or what bonuses you're trying to get--the bonuses are all over the map.
Besides taking all the key Invul powers and the Fighting Pool, both of which you have done, probably the best way to make an Invul build tougher is to slot for typed defense bonuses. Note "typed"; some of the sets you have chosen have primarily positional set bonuses, which do not stack with the defense Invul offers in Invinc and Tough Hide.
S/L damage is by far the most common type, so you should probably concentrate on raising your S/L defense to as close to the soft-cap of 45% as possible, with raising your E/NE defense as a secondary goal. That means you want to slot sets like Smashing Haymaker (1.88% S/L def bonus for 4 slots) rather than Multi Strike (.94% S/L defense for 6 slots.) Better yet is Kinetic Combat, which has 3.75% S/L def as a 4-slot bonus, but they are expensive and hard to find. Reactive Armor is a good choice for TI, UY, and Tough, but again, you want to stop at 4 slots--skip the End and End/Rchg.
I would also recommend that you take Haymaker and KoB much sooner than shown on this build. The Fighting Pool powers can easily be delayed until the 20s. Also, unless you're a 60-month vet, you won't be able to take Fly until 14 and you'll have to take the prereq power as well--either Hover or Air Sup. (I prefer Air Sup, but YMMV.)
Rage should also be taken much earlier--22 at the latest. Most SS players slot Rage with enough recharge so it's always up--currently it doesn't have enough Recharge to "perma".
That should give you enough to start with.

The thing you really need to aim for with Invlnerability is Smash/Lethal Defense. THis build is a little odd, considering maneuvers, but it gets softcapped defense to smash/lethal at least.
