Not sure about the WotR range, but all the Donnington New Era stuff I have seen is great.

I especially love their Arab merchant...

I have some Donnington New Era figures, though not the WOTR ones, and they are very nice indeed.  True 15s with lots of detail and variety of poses.  The downside is that you need to drill the hands for spears and lances.  If you don't mind doing that they are an excellent purchase.

I also have some of the Donnington new era miniatures.

It took a bit of time for it to arrive in the States, but it was worth it.

Haven't had time yet to clean them up and paint, but after examining the figures I can say they look good.  I mostly got infantry/archers for my Normans and such.

Size comparison looks good alongside my Essex, Old Glory, Baeudua, and Forged in Battle miniatures.

The New Era sculpts are fantastic.
 
I buy from the States, and so always make sure I get up to edge of the weight for one of the shipping brackets so I'm getting the best value for the postage.
