Valkyrie (Legend of the Valkyrie)

The Valkyrie from Legend of the Valkyrie places 8th in the Top 10 Namco Characters poll, and is the last of the obscure, Japan only appearances that somehow sprung to the top. The game’s pretty cool, an arcade action title with a hint of The Legend of Zelda. The Valkyrie has also made a fair number of appearances in Namco crossover titles.

Two more to go, then it’s on to Sega!
