    10. Indiana Jones

    9. Ichigo from "Bleach", the ultimate completely-lacking-in-any-other-traits-than-being-the-Epic-Hero character (I like to call him "Bleachigo"): http://cdimg3.crunchyroll.com/i/spire2/12312007/e/...

    8. Mario (gotta have him): http://voguerepublic.files.wordpress.com/2008/08/m...

    7. Kirby (gotta have my Nintendo peeps, some of the most classic Characters ever... I was really tempted to include Star Fox, as he is my favorite character in Super Smash... and Donkey Kong, as DK Country was my first ever video game, so they get honorable mentions):
