That's why I bought the t-zoids. They were the smallest head I could find. Before that I was still using wood woods.

Here is some stuff as a jumping off point.
Check out
http://www.golfdigest.com/golf-equipment/hot-list for a bit of a primer on newer clubs. I have heard a lot of great things about the Titleist AP2 but I have not hit them since they are a bit over my ability on off days. Callaway x-22 tour and x-forged are other popular players irons and Mizzuno is still doing good things. You might try googleing hot list 2009 and 2008 for players irons for something to target on the used market at a better value.
For players hybrids the only thing I can really suggest is either the Adams Pro or Adams Pro Gold. The Pro plays more like a traditional 2 or 3 iron but with the advantages of a hybrid and I think is still pretty popular on the tour. The Pro Gold is more forgiving and produces a slightly higher launch/trajectory but produces less of a long iron type of trajectory.
My personal favorite 3 wood at the moment is the Taylor Made R7 Tour Preferred from a few years back. I have also heard good things about the more recent Burner Tour Preferred. The Titleist 906 f2/f4 is also very nice. All of them are more of the traditional size.
As Hamas already said the shaft is a huge part of club selection these days. With irons not much has changed (Dynamic Gold is still one of the most popular after nearly 30 years) but with your woods you will want to find something that matches your swing.
