    I always hated how americans call them "legos". Lego is already plural like fish. You don't say "check out my fishes", you'd say "check out my fish". Same goes for lego..."look at all of my lego" not "look at all of my legos"

    I think if you're referring to multiple kinds of fish then fishes is correct. I don't see any particular reason why lego would be plural as is.

    because each individual piece is not "a lego". The product as a whole is 'lego'. So it is not a box of legos it is a box of lego.

    the brand name is lego. i suppose technically, each piece is a lego piece, or a lego block or something.

    just because something is a brand name, doesn't mean if you use multiple components of the product it's still singular. you don't say "my lips were dry, i went through 3 chapstick in a week," or "i was so horny, i filled up 18 kleenex."

    finally:
    noun, plural LEGOs. Also, Lego, lego . 2. one of these blocks, usually as part of a set.

    No way.

    Lego's done millions of cooler things.

    Each piece is a "lego piece" or, in plural, "lego pieces". This can be shortened by calling each piece a lego, and for clarity; legos. For many this is the preferable plural; so you can be clear whether you want the piece or the bucket.
    Lego's official position is that Lego is only a noun when referring to the company. So they are both incorrect.

    If I heard a kid talking about the plural of Lego, I'd punch him in the face. Let alone an Adult. Whom I would kidnap and torture.

    Anyways this particular set of Lego brand blocks are the shit. I was too poor to have them when I was a kid, luckily my friends had entire cities in their basement.
