Female undead have the best animation for fury/prot imo, they do flips :P, there arms ins't as good though. Plus I love the look of plate on undead. Tauren's have the biggest most impressive looking weapons, and they look good in plate, but there just too big for me, plus both orcs and taurens have HUGE shoulders, and it bugs the living fuck out of me >.> they must each weight like 700 lbs. I like trolls, but honestly there so high and there cloaks never touch the ground and that really bothers me. As far as racials go... if you pop orcs ever CD, you will get the equivalent of like ~40 ap on your gear at 80, taurens will give you 405 more health, trolls zerking won't give too much either, so really there all rather lackluster in the grand scheme of it all.
