So much for Ronald McDonald, although the food part could be argued, and the Michelin Man, not created by an American.

Does a particular company hold a trademark on this character?

Is the character still used in ads nowadays?

For whatever reason I'm drawing a blank on human characters advertising non-edible goods, apart from the Michelin Man. This is probably just me, and there are loads of them.

Is this character distinctively male?

Is the character still used in ads nowadays? I haven't actually seen any such ad recently myself, but based on a quick Google search it would seem that the answer is yes.

I finally managed to find a couple, but there's little chance any of them is the one we're looking for. Also, the Michelin Man is humanoid at best, but human?

The entity is called a man. Are you disputing their right to self-identify as such?

Can he be seen using the goods his company sells in the ads?
