Likes to play a brand?

Hi. Please tell me if the following example sentence is correct. I think "Lego" is either a brand name (name of a brand) or a company name. Thank you for your help in advance.

He likes to play Lego.

I would say He likes to play with Lego. It's the name of the construction toy as well as the name of the company that makes it.

In my dialect, you can't play with Lego, singular. We play with Legos.

I've usually heard the plural.

He likes to play with his Legos.

Yes, I had forgotten that it is plural in AmE. I rarely talk about Lego(s), so I have not yet adopted the plural. I expect Clive is in the same situation.
