I can do a Russian, German, Italian, Scottish, Irish (better than Scottish), English, Cajun, New Orleans, French, Brooklyn, and...nope, that's about it.

I'm American in case anyone was wondering where such a concentrated dose of awesome came from.

Definitely my Japanese accent. That's my best accent by far but I'm also pretty proud of my British accent.

Accents are pretty much my trick, but the best I'd say I can do is a scouse accent, having watched Red Dwarf and Robot Wars constantly through the 90s. Craig Charles is a legend.

The best specific character I can do would probably be Alan Partridge. I've had people struggling to breathe from laughter doing bits from that show.

Apparently my best is Scottish or Irish. Other than those two, I can pull off a fair few, but I'd live to be able to master a South African accent, or a Mancunian accent.

Russian, which is good because it goes with my Russian hat, and I learned the accent from a number of games ranging from S.T.A.L.K.E.R (I know thats Ukrainian but shhh) Grand Theft Auto 4 and Metro 2033. For reference, I am British with a strong accent (standard old Stephen Fry style ) and love to see a good (or bad) impression of one.

Pn topic slightly: None. But it really grinds my gears when people say they can do a British accent then put on an uppity cockney accent and shout 'Ullo gov'na' all the time as if that's how all Briitish people speak. There's a different accent for nearly every city/area. "British" isn't an accent. Same goes for other countries I would assume, but I can't talk on their behalf because I'veo nly even lived in Britain.

people have said that I have a great Russian and Australian accent. In other words, I can be FPS Russia guy and the crocodile hunter!

Texan seeing as that's where I am from.
I'm not really sure if it counts but I can do the WALL-E voice pretty well.

Whose? Ah, doesn't make that much of a difference, they all try to pull off British RP (to varying degrees of success, though Claudia Black wins, obviously...).

Ernie from Bert and Ernie, it´s exactly like the real thing.

I can also imitate fairly well and know a couple of stereotype accents, though for some reason my accents at some point alway turn into `fat black guy´.

I can't do any other accents apart from the one I have.
Which is british-y.
Going further into detail, I have a Yorkshire accent.

Oh christ... A thread like this? I'm a madman with voices and sound effects. I can, in fact, do quite a number of them. For the record, my normal accent is Pittsburghian. Yes, there is an accent for a city. Those who have been to New York know that they have accents as well, so go figure. What else can I do? Here's a short list...

British accents, especially anything that sounds like James Bond or anyone from Monty Python or Doctor Who.
Irish accents...because I'm actually part Irish.
Italian accents...because the other major part is Italian.
Peter Falk voice...because I watched alot of Columbo.
Indian accents, from hearing them alot.

There are more than this, but I'd have to think of them all. I don't actually know what could ever be my best.

Ah,it was bugging me since I have yet to hear anyone speak like that.Thought it might have been butchered Welsh because I know a guy from Wales who almost sounds like that.
