Well, back with another D&D problem, but before that a little update;
So we've successfully had several sessions already for our D&D group. Actually, we have two separate groups running with separate campaigns (simply because one group is away from town on leave for uni and thus are very infrequent; the other group consists of our regulars). We've been investing a bit more time into our campaigns as well - our last two adventures having had a few miniatures to play with (and an elaborate board to play on, that the DM constructed with his free time one week). To provide the DM with a bit of a break from our regular sessions, I've volunteered to start a mini-campaign that we can run every once in a while so that the DM can play as a player once in a while. Thus, it will be an entirely different story and I'm really excited to try some things out. My only issue is that I'm trying to look for miniatures to add to my campaign.
The miniatures I'm looking for need to be painted, because I can neither paint nor have the time to paint the lot of miniatures I plan to buy. I've found one site, TrollandToad and I've been able to find most of the mini's I need - however, there is a female character that I need to buy and I cannot find an appropriate mini to represent her. She's supposed to be a sort-of human support type character, who wields a sword. I'm willing to change a bit of her back story and say, make her an Elf, but the fact that she wields a blade is substantial to her storyline. But finding these miniature sites is really tough - most I find are for non-painted singles, and ebay hasn't been much help either. Is there another site that would be good for ordering mini's?
Pathfinder recently started selling a 40 piece set of minis. They're blind-boxed individually, so it's a gamble of a buy, but they're pretty decent for plastic prepaints.
I'd check out maybe Mage Knight models as well. You'd have to rebase them but glue isn't exactly difficult to use.
If you do find an unpainted mini that fits there are places/people that you could pay to paint things like that. Really depends on just how serious you are about it matching.

Also on Troll and Toad, take a look at their World of Warcraft minis. I got a female blood elf paladin with a huge sword for about a buck. The base is gigantic, but they can be easily rebased.
Thanks for the help; i bought from T&T; didn't really find what I wanted in the Warcraft mini's though. Luckily, I did end up finding a figure after a few days on Ebay. It was expensive for just one mini, but I'm strapped for time if I wanna meet my original quota for time.
As for the mage knight, I couldn't end up finding it. Wrote "mage knight models" on google, but no such named site. Or perhaps I misread your post?
Mostly Elves/Humans and a few halflings. They've got the cards according to description so I'm pretty excited. I'll be reusing a few miniatures from the other campaigns but mostly new stuff (:
