A Popularity Contest Idea: Advertising Icons

I've done a newspaper-based contest on snack items. Pringles one that. I've done an NFL contest, which ended in a tie between Pittsburgh and Tampa Bay. Now, I've been inspired, by watching too many commercials, to do a contest on commerical mascots/icons. These characters have to be original. This excludes popular cartoon characters like Road Runner.

So far, I've compiled a list of thirty-nine icons. To do the tournament, this would need to be shortened by seven or, the less-wanted option, lengthened by twenty-five. If I have neglected a major icon that you feel should be in the running, say so. The main purpose to this, though, is to ask for assistance in narrowing down the participants to an even, tournament-friendly number of thirty-two.

The List
The Gecko (Geico)
Ronald McDonald
Red & Yellow (M&M's)
Pillsbury Dough Boy
Jack (Jack in the Box)
Helping Hand (Hamburger Helper)
Mr. Clean
The Scrubbing Bubbles
The Jolly Green Giant (Green Giant)
Charlie the Tuna (Starkist)
Mr. Peanut (Planters)
Tony the Tiger (Frosted Flakes, mainly)
Kool-Aid Man
Toucan Sam (Froot Loops)
Snap/Crackle/Pop (Rice Krispies)
Captain Crunch
Lucky the Leprechaun (Lucky Charms)
The Energizer Bunny
The Budweiser Clydesdales
Cingular's icon--I've dubbed him "Splat-Man"
Buddy (AOL)
The Trix Rabbit
Polar Bears (Coca-Cola)
The Keebler Elves
Buzz (Honey Nut Cheerios)
The Michelin Man
Spot (Target)
The Wal-Mart Smiley Face
Chester the Cheetah (Cheetos)
The Roaming Gnome (Travelocity)
The Chik-Fil-A Cows
Snuggle
The Serta Sheep
Geoffrey (Toys "R" Us)
The Quik Bunny (Nesquik)
Fruit of the Loom Fruits
California Cows (California Dairy Industry)
Maytag Repairman
The Capital One Vikings

Jam it back in, in the dark.
