Exactly this. Lego is the construction brand. The individual pieces are bricks et al.

Legos refers to the lego bricks like waters can refer to multiple glasses of water even though water is a mass noun and usually doesn't exist in plural. Same with peoples meaning multiple groups of people.

Sheep is perhaps a better example for comparison with Lego. Unless you know of an example where ‘sheeps’ has legitimate usage.
