this case, you would lose your trademark. With these two things said, so long as customers who associate the type of goods with the brand don’t think the brand is a generic name for the goods, ie calling http://bing.com a google (and not knowing it’s a brand) or calling
).
Post is right that it is bad for your brand it it becomes the generic name for the goods in question. Inall building blocks legos (and again not knowing it’s a brand), you are fine. And iirc there is a case which says that just because Google became a verb, it doesn’t mean it’s become a generic. Therefore they keep their TM.

Not verbs, I meant brands.
