    I'm surprised how many people called them "guys". For some reason I thought my friends and I were the only ones who did so.

        I always called all action figures "figures" ... never action figures -- just "figures"

          I always said figures or Megos. I was really into the commercials when I was a kid so I'd always hear that, "by MEGO", tagline at the end so I was well aware of who made 'em. Plus the kid across the alley from me was about 5 years older than me and had a bunch of 'em and he always called them Megos, so I think I picked up on it from him as well.

            Actually come to think of it, I think I referred to my WGSH, Star Trek, etc., as my "Mego dolls".

                I think I still do that somewhat!
