LEGO did not buy out every other plastic toy company, they just attracted so much more customers than other companies that it made it extreamley difficult to compete. There are other plastic toy building companies such as Mega Blocks and Knex, which while they do not make as much money as Lego they still make decent amounts of income.
Also, it would be legally impossible for Lego to buy out every plastic toy building company in the United States because of anti-monoply laws.
