First of all, loving all the new options, these are fantastic and much more than I ever expected to see! Most of my characters have had the same look since open beta(and beta in a few cases), but there are a number of options I look forward to playing with on them. Always seen my hunter/ranger character with a more native american look to her, and getting my easterling refugee champion to look more easterling is going to be fun. Gondor and dale were both melting pots. I hope we get more diversity for elves, dwarves and hobbits eventually too. (I've noticed between this and the upcoming magic the gathering set a greater push for diversity in Middle-earth and I'm ecstatic)

I might have more feedback in general but I wanted to touch on one thing that I see many, many games fail at - properly rendering darker skin. Though my wife points out that there are some issues with the way even lighter skin looks around the eyes and mouths.

Basically, the darker options are all very ashen, with no reflection. Lighter skin is generally more transparent so you see the color more easily, but darker skin is generally more reflective of light.

This might also help with issues where facial features disappear into the face and become harder to see.

I want to add that the older hairstyles seem to look better, a little smoother texture-wise. There are definitely some issues with some of the newer hairstyles where some don't appear to be fitting on the head properly.
