Apparently Europe is getting G4-G11? So you may not have to wait too long for G12 for the renewal.

With Shadow Missions and Exploration coming out, there's very little reason to defend that a new character won't lvl up to the current ones in your EU servers. So yeah, you can start over as a Giant and pretty much get to your Human's total APs with the new content in like... what, a month?
If you don't like/use Ranged, I think Giants are a great incentive to play, combat-wise. Sure, they have a smaller MP/Int base and gain. But nothing that MP potions can't solve. Plus Int won't matter as much (until G13 anyway). They trump as Melee users (You will definitely see this when you realize how easy it is to train and rank Giant Windmill), and can use Alchemy as well as any other race. Finally, their transformation's special skill, Full Swing, is a high-end dmg skill, which can deal almost-unparalleled dmg metagame.
Just be aware, Giants can't Play Dead or Hide (so you have very little in ways of getting out of sticky situations as a beginner). Also, what some players consider as the biggest downside as a Giant: lack of good looks.

Nope, sorry. =(
It's the 2nd most discriminatory thing in-game besides no homosexual marriage.

I would at least give Giants a shot since you'll be getting free assistant cards anyway. I personally started out playing giant without ever touching human. It's a little tough at first without any range skills and very low Mana but the higher you get, the more you realize a giant's potential and how awesome they are. Definitely give it a try.
