Do Bandai characters count? Namco and Bandai did merge a few years ago after all.
Anyway, here's my list.
Kalas (Baten Kaitos) Nightmare (Soul Calibur) Kos-Mos (Xenosaga) Lloyd Irving (Tales of Symphonia) Solvalou (Xevious(100% serious)) Valkyrie Momo Gilgamesh (Tower of Druaga) Hiromi Tengenji (Burning Force) Toby "Kissy" Masuyo (Baraduke)

No, no Bandai characters. I know they merged, but the idea is just to stick with Namco for now (they have a better back catalogue anyway). I did the same with Konami and Hudson, and will do the same with Square Enix and Taito (however Square & Enix will be merged because take out FF and DQ and you don't actually have many games...)
I will cover the merged companies that are worth covering. Including Hudson and Taito. Probably not Bandai though...

Fair enough, the only noteworthy Bandai IP is Digimon, the rest are pretty much just anime and manga characters.

In no particular order...
Pino and Acha from Toy Pop Devil Jin from Tekken 5 (or any variation of Yoshimitsu) Digger from Dig Dug (or Mr. Driller since they're related) The Prince from Katamari Damacy (or the King of All Cosmos since he's so fabulous) Voldo from Soul Calibur( The Sould Calibur II version with the badages and gag ball) Definitely Klonoa and Mappy The cheeseburger-head guys from Point Blank on the PSOne Richard Miller from Time Crisis.

I'm not sure I'm fond enuff of Namco's characters to think of ones I want to see drawn, but let's see... Pac-man is the obvious choice, but you've already drawn him. Klonoa is pretty cool, I guess, tho I've never played any of the games. Amul from Dragon Spirit should have a shout out. Taizo Hori from Dig Dug. Albatross from Rolling Thunder, perhaps. Cassandra from Soul Calibur. (Or maybe Kilik. I'm having a hard time remembering what other characters I used besides Link. ) Colette from Tales of Symphonia, 'cause everyone else is voting for Lloyd. A Galaga (those bug things that capture your ship). Red Baron & Blue Max from Sky Kid. Gilgamesh from Tower of Druaga. I don't know, I'm kinda indifferent to a lot of Namco's characters. EDIT: Added in more characters.

Pick some from the chart. If you can't think of any you want, pick ones that will be a challenge for me to draw

Not wanting to pick characters already chosen/on the chart, I'll go with...
Ninja (I-Ninja) Libble and Rabble (Libble Rabble. Does this count as two?) Asbel (Tales of Graces) Seigfried (Soul Calibur) Sanger Zonvolt (Super Robot Wars OG Saga) Wild Dog (Time Crisis) King Of All Cosmos (Katamari Damacy. I like this guy better than The Prince <_<) Clyde (Pac-Man) Jack Slate (Dead To Rights)

You're not very familiar with this voting concept are you If you only pick characters not on the list, they will only get 1 vote and therefore be very unlikely to be drawn. That's why I wanted your personal faves or ones you liked the look of. I'm trying to pick a handful to draw. Not that there's anything wrong with your list, of course. Edit: I've also removed Sanger Zonvolt as he's a Banpresto character. That's the Bandai half of BNG, and this is just the Namco half we're looking at here. I've also posed this over at deviantArt, so I have a few more updates to make! Edit: Chart updated with the latest voting from dA & here

Okay, I'm gonna go ahead and give my #9 and 10 votes to the Point Blank guys (didn't realise they were Namco) and the Taikos because aww look at them.

This list is certainly eccentric! With your extra spaces, the Taikos are now more popular than anybody in Tekken! And I certainly never thought Momo would be more popular than anybody in Soul Calibur! I guess I do have a community who revels in obscurity, so in a way it shouldn't be a huge surprise

I tried to vote for well-known characters! I just don't know many.

Never underestimate the power of our collective nerdiness!
To be honest I wouldn't know a lot of these if it weren't for Arino's exploits or that Capcom crossover
