I don't think it's Lego, at a guess they've misunderstood "legetoj" to be
"lego toy", actually I think it means "played" or something similar (it's
Danish). "Samle" is collect or assemble. "Pusle" has me beat, Tank perhaps?
I know very little Danish so I'm not 100% on those translations.

| (...) "Legetøy" simply means "toy". "Samle" means "collect" and "pusle" means something like "tinker" or "puzzle". But not "puzzle" in the sense of being confused, more like creatively solving a problem. Fredrik (24 years ago, 7-Feb-01, to lugnet.loc.au)
