They are actively using actual LEGO bricks, and as such they are not misrepresenting anything.
Where there is gray area is in them not clearly stating they are unaffiliated with LEGO the company.
OTOH, they also don't seem to be looking to monetize anything, so they are at lower risk from LEGO having a plausible claim that they are hurting their sales.
- dec0dedab0de 1y agoWhile it is perfectly valid to describe what they made as a designer or builder for LEGO, I do not believe they are allowed to use part of a trademark in a way that could be trademarkable itself, so basically good for everything but the name. But then again IANAL, and that is just how I understand the American law, and every country is different.
- 6stringmerc 1y agoThis is an incredibly ignorant perspective on the nature and intent of trademark law and I’m hopeful you will learn about reality one way or another. As the saying goes, your feelings don’t matter in court.
