Looks to me like the siege shields/mantlets from the siege list in the Badad book II.

Is this essentially a giant SM shield?

Seeing as the shield has a very clear spear slot, it would be a shame not give them matching weapons.

Why would you want to stick a spear through that shield hole when you could poke a bolter through it?

In the grim darkness of the future pointy sticks do more damage then bolters.

$1.00 in interwebz money says you're right. Looks like a seige shield and that's a PA shoulder pad.

Of course it's underwhelming.

Yeah I saw full pics on another thread. The boarding set looks pretty good. Don't know if it would get much use on a gameboard. I'm thinking diorama.
