Collection: Lego

Lego is a renowned brand of plastic construction toys originating from Denmark in 1932. The name "Lego" derives from the Danish phrase "leg godt," which means "play well." Founded by Ole Kirk Christiansen, the company initially produced wooden toys, but switched to plastic bricks in 1949. Key features include interlocking plastic bricks made of acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS), gears, figurines (minifigures), and high production quality with attention to detail for seamless assembly. These versatile bricks can be disassembled and reused to construct new creations. The Lego Group's beginnings can be traced back to the workshop of carpenter Ole Kirk Christiansen in Billund, Denmark. After starting with wooden toys, the company shifted to plastic bricks in 1949 and patented the iconic interlocking design in 1958 under Godtfred Kirk, who took over the company from his father. With an annual production of over 36 billion bricks.
