It's LEGO, not Lego Very Happy

Proper Use of the LEGO Trademark on a Web Site
If the LEGO trademark is used at all, it should always be used as an adjective, not as a noun. For example, say "MODELS BUILT OF LEGO BRICKS". Never say "MODELS BUILT OF LEGOs".Also, the trademark should appear in the same typeface as the surrounding text and should not be isolated or set apart from the surrounding text. In other words, the trademarks should not be emphasized or highlighted. Finally, the LEGO trademark should always appear with a ® symbol each time it is used.


Seriously, they're pretty serious about it....

ANN has a policy of not putting trademarks (that are not acronyms) in all capital letters (e.g. Tokyopop) and a policy of not using registered trademark symbols. The New York Times and other newspapers have similar policies. Otherwise, ANN tries to abide by the guidelines of not using Lego as a noun and of keeping Lego in the same typeface as the surrounding text.

Some really good models here Smile love the Okami origin mirror.

I've still got an anime lego model on my window sill - the SDF-1 Macross. It's crude, but transformable!

Sweet...I like the Mazinger Z. LEGO are addicting, pricey and time consuming. In other words, they're awesome ♥.
My brother collects Star Wars LEGO kits.
