Anyone know whose arm this is?

There's an Aragorn for sale but the arm supplied is incorrect, any ideas?

I think it might be Faramir, Captain of Ithilien. I can't confirm though, because I never bought the model.

I don't have that Faramir model at hand right now, but I don't think it's his. If I remember correctly, that model had a metal vambrace on its arms.

In fact, I have no clue who's arm this could be! I would even doubt it's from LotR or the Hobbit. It might be from another manufacturer.

Rider of the Dead maybe? Don't have any, but the typical pattern on the lower arm is similar to that of the metal Army of the Dead, and they are some of the few models with chainmail and swords with a broad crossguard (Rohan having very different swords, while Gondor generally has some plate armour on the shoulder or arm, if showing any chainmail at all).

Ah, yes! You're right. :)

Check out this picture, it's ukfreddybear's Rider of the Dead (I found the picture on TLA):

Clearly the left guy's arm, yes!

This could be a new type of quiz? Guess the part?

I can also see it becoming a bit outrageous...
