I really cannot express how much I would like to see them update character models.
My main is a female tauren. And while I love her and would never change her race, if her model suddenly looked better, I would rejoice. Even something as simple as having a few more face options (we have four) would be amazing. Bonus if we could actually customize our manes a bit and maybe have, I don't know. Some personality? And some extra polygons so that her fingers don't look like some sort of strange 8 bit sausages would be awesome.
No one I've talked to would cry about their character looking better. And you know, even if they did, I'm sure they'd get over it. Druids have new cat and bear forms. The world didn't implode when these were introduced. If they can change the way a class *functions* every patch in the name of balancing PvP, I'm pretty sure they can update character models without losing too may customers.

Druids were begging for that change.
Ninety percent of the people screaming for new human female skins are people who don't play human females.
We're pretty happy the way we are, thanks.

@Julie:
I agree, I'd like to have a little more option for face and hair customization with tauren females, as well as troll females... trolls and orcs both need a few more not-ugly faces too. Trolls have one and orcs have two. :(

If the one decent troll face your're talking about is the blowup dollesque look of ditzy surprise I wouldn't even count that one. Seriously, check the female toons of all the races at least one of them has the wide eyes, slightly open mouth and raised eyebrows of a blowup doll. I wonder where Blizzard got the impression that women looked like that ;)

Gah, thank you. I can't stand the "dull surprise" look on the cuteface troll or the second cuteface female orc, and I find them less attractive than I do the so-called "hideous" faces that actually have some personality and look like they're marginally aware of their surroundings. It makes it worse when every other troll female I meet looks exactly the same, and all of them appear to be pondering the void.
IMO a lot of the "ugly" faces are actually pretty cool-looking with the right color combination and hairstyle.
