The trademark might never expire, though. And Lego alternatives are pretty shabby.

yeah the trademark is a bit of a thing I do feel like that should probably be genericised as that's just the name of the object at this point but not all lego alternatives are bad I'm pretty sure you can find good alternatives for a decent price I don't know for certain as I'm not into lego but I highly doubt lego the company are the only company that make decent lego

There are Chinese companies that make ripoffs but it's made of much cheaper plastic and the shape of the bricks is different (edges are rounded instead of right angles)

yeah I'm not saying there aren't bad ones but I'm sure if you looked you could find a midzone where they aren't that cheap cause they use better materials and have higher quality but without the insane prices of lego the company
