So I know shields are available with plastic Galadrhim, said shields ( high elf ones as well), just look aweful on the metal Haldir's Elves.

The same thing applies to tournament matches as well. If you want to be perfectly sure you can ask individual organizers I guess. But I run spears on things that aren't modeled with them and I have never had any major problems as a result.
