This is what I came up with:

Anyone care to guess where I got the inspiration for it?

Looking for comments and advice as well. Thanks.

Would it happen to have anything to do with a certain pro football team?

Or does it have something to do with a certain iconic motorcycle company?

Looks like it's based off a old 50's car Hood ornament.

Who knows if the Namco Portable will ever become a reality? :P

No, although I guess the face looks a bit like that of the Eagles logo. Not sure what motorcycle company, but no, that was not it either.

No, not what I had in mind either. It's a specific company - actually, 2 different companies. One is fictional and based upon the other.
