I am looking to run a quick RPG session with some friends because they want to know what RPGs are all about. They are big boardgamers so I wanted them to have some figures to actually move around the table just to try and connect them to what is going on. However, I have no idea how they will receive the RPG so I don't want to go buying some expensive minis and paint them up. So for a stop gap measure I am looking for some paper figures I can print out on card stock and use for now. I've been inspired by the Card Hunter figures. My problem is that I cannot seem to locate a nice collection of figures I can use. I've seen a few here and there but they are either not what I am looking for or when combined with one another don't match in scale/style. Anyone have any links or suggestions?
What is the game theme? Steampunk? Medieval fantasy? Cthulu?

if it's not fantasy, lemme know - I've got plenty of others already on my machine, like Pulp heroes or Modern Ops

Sorry it is fantasy, LOTR actually.

Thanks for the links. I've seen some of those but a few I must have missed.

Paper figures and environments
Don't forget about fiddlersgreen.net (http://www.fiddlersgreen.net). They don't have a lot of figures but there are some buildings (especially the Old English style) that might be useful for country inns and such.
Here's an iron-age village:

And check
this (http://www.fiddlersgreen.net/models/Buildings/Hunters-Haven.html) out:
Probably waaay more elaborate than you need but cool non-the-less. It is a bit pricey at $20 but you get their models in a number of sizes so they can be used for different scales.
