There were some plastic prepaints - a very limited range - but I think they were on the large side for 28mm, if not bigger. Might be worth a look, and perhaps you can convert whatever you can't find?

I feel like a lot of Reaper and Warmachine/Hordes minis also have the oversized armor and proportions of Warcraft, so you might find inspiration there.

Reaper might fit his bill - a lot of it is available as Bones plastics.
Thanks, I'll have a chat with him about it.  :)

The Runewars minis game humans look a lot like the humans from Warcraft to me. With the game no longer supported by FFG there are some good deals to be had on the mini sets at the moment.

 The pre-painted figures are pretty good.The sizes reflect the character types well.I have a load of them sitting in a box some place.

The pre-painted minis are pretty nice but, as I recall, very much out of scale with standard 28mm stuff.
If you need size comparison shots I can dig my box out and get some.

... and in case you do find fitting minis, particularly trolls, please post some pictures here?  :D

I really have no idea what I'm doing.
