I wasn't aware of them. I thought usage of "microfig" (as well as "minifig")
is pretty much unofficial. Has "microfig" been used in Lego marketing

Which works in my favor, 'cause microfig-scale is getting to be too big for
some of my models. I'm serisouly thinking of terming my larger-scale
starships "nanofig-scale". :-,
