The Deepeeka Linothorax is horrible, The only way you will be able to buy a Linothorax is to commission a very good seamstress to make one for you, as far as im concerned there are no good examples for sale anywhere.
Regards philips iron Cuirass the articulations are a series of tube hinges similar to the hinges on the lorica segmentata (just longer and less ornate) Google the net for philip's armour (armor) and you will find enough images to go with.
Good Luck and have fun
ps. one of the best suppliers of ancient greek gear is 'manning imperial' based in Sydney Australia.
