Yeah, the kids ability to make a swastika flag out of Lego was the thing that really made me doubt, especially if it was back in the day when the bricks where simple.

@jackeric I still have a memory from my childhood where I was drawing pluses and decided to 'decorate' some of them. My mum had to explain to me why adding 90° lines to the end of each of the lines of a plus wasn't as nice as my 5- or 7-years young self thought it was...
As for fessor's story, I could still see it happen. Remember that kids especially aren't as focused on making a 100% accurate representation of something, and they might not have remembered all the details of the flag. Even I had forgotten the nazi flag included a white circle. If you'd asked me to recreate it, I'd probably have just put a black swastika on a red flag, and the swastika would've been straight, rather than rotated by 45°. Even if I'd remembered the white circle, I'd likely have made a more jagged pixelised version of it, rather than a perfect circle.
