I think a part of the reason for the apparent weirdness in size is that these are based for the most part on the characters' in-game models and not on the super detailed cinematics featuring the characters. Arthas (The Lich King) is a good example of what I'm talking about here. In the cinematics (and the lore) his armor is decently normal in size albeit very ornate and he's built like a regular-ish man, in the actual gameplay though he's a bit chunkier and his armor then too is kind of oversized and chunky looking. Another example: in HotS Thrall is only a bit bigger than Illidan so the figure reflects that even though this may not be accurate to the lore. There's more examples but listing them all would be excessive.

Jim Raynor isn't really depicted as a very big guy, he's kind of just average in size from what we see of him out of the suit and only stands just a bit taller than Kerrigan in her human form or is the same height about as Matt or the other male humans. Tychus is the one shown to be a big brawler of a man in and out of the armor. In Starcraft 2's cutscenes Raynor in his armor isn't very much taller than he is without it, it isn't like wearing a Hulkbuster Iron Man suit.
