With determining the length of shaft that you require it's more a question of your wrist to floor measuremet than your height. Just because you are tall doesn't necessarily mean you will want longer shafts but it is likely.
The MacGregor 565s are nice and good for beginners - I'd go for steel shafts and not graphite though and I'd be amazed if you wanted anything other than regular shafts at the moment. My friend who must be 6ft 3in uses them and I hit his 5 iron the other week and felt really good. They have good things going for them generally, they are well made, forged, come with very good shafts as standard and aren't very expensive. Ticks all the boxes basically.
Do you have a putter yet? If not just try out as many as you can, decide if you prefer mallets or blade style by trial and error and then try some more. Then try a bit more, then a few more and then a try some you haven't tried yet. Then try another one.... It's the only way to get yourself one that feels right for you and if costs $2 or $200 it makes no odds as long as you are comfortable with it.
