Who made up the idea that lego is a plural noun, though? The company itself doesn't say that.
The closest analogue to lego pieces, would be bricks. You don't say "That's a big pile of brick," do you? You'd say, "That's a big pile of bricks." Same with Legos.
It's like grain. It's a big pile of Lego? Who decided? English speakers who read, I imagine, meanwhile anyone saying "Legos" sounds like an eight year old with attention span issues.
