I think you only need one word.

What's the main beef with the TIMELINE chain mail? As others said is it too restrictive?

olaf doesn't have sleeves though--he's hauberk is great but it is short sleeve mail. and their is no beef with the timeline mail. i didn't say it was too restrictive just somewhat more restrictive than having cloth on the arms. his arms still bend, hold poses, etc. it's mainly the leg mail that will keep them form doing any deep knee bends or the hauberks from bending over, etc.

Glad to hear it--- I passed on the Olaf chain mail but I got the chain mail from the TIMELINE figs--- I'm more interested in adding the upper body stuff to change Strider TFOTR into Aragorn TTT... Nobody ever answered my question (and I haven't gone back to the videotape yet to find the answer--- chasing a 9 month old who's just discovered the joy of crawling will do that to your schedule) if Legolas has visible chain mail during the battle of Helm's Deep----- I seem to remember that he looks pretty much the same. I'm hoping that with two sets of chain mail I'll use one for Aragorn and the other maybe to swap out the tissue Boromir stuff---- or maybe I'll hold out for when Faramir is delivered and completely change his look to when he's in full armour to ride out to his eventual (almost) demise....

Specifically, Olaf has a single piece chain mail tunic style shirt with a split down the middle at the legs and short sleeves. I believe the Timeline figures have a three piece set with the full length arm sleeves as separate pieces that don't connect to anything, they just slide up the arms. The main problem with the Timeline Knights is that their chain mail isn't split down the middle at the legs, which greatly restrict their movement. Olaf doesn't have this issue, he's very poseable.DarthNeil said:
Olaf is bad ass, I liked him so much I bought two so I can make a couple of Vikings.

I'd be glad to if only my waitlist would convert or some nice boardmember would sell their exclusive at a reasonable price.

He does not wear chainmail, but he does don some light leather shoulder armor.

Bummer! I just got my exclusive Boromir, only to find out that he . . . isn't. The outer box has the exclusive sticker, but inside it's the regular version, no cloak, no severed head. Curses!
I've emailed Sideshow, and hopefully they'll be able to sort it out. Has anyone else ever had this happen?

Thanks--- that's what I thought.

I thought about getting an Olaf but I wasn't really too keen on his accessories. I think I can make the TIMELINE chain mail work for a TTT Aragorn with a little nip and tuck--- I'm more concerned with the upper body stuff than with the legs. Thanks for the info.
I ended up getting a Timeline Arnaut figure for my Boromir.
Here's a review I found:

Other than Boromir, Helm's Deep Aragorn, and Gimli what other LOTR characters wore chainmail?

Oops -- didn't mean to derail the thread.
Sounds like there's some interest in this Dragon TIMELINE/Olaf chainmail though -- me included. It's sure a nice customization option.

I was wondering what Boromir looks like with Aragorn's ranger cloak seeing as Boromir is lacking the one he wore in Fellowship. Can any one take pics?
I would do it myself but I live in the UK and Boromir wont be here for at least another week or so. I posted this in the RS forums but no-one wanted to bite.
I might have to get a regular Boromir just to do the bracer and cloak swap onto Aragorn. I love the pics I've seen here of that and of course Boromir too
