The end of August is upon us, and it heralds the end of summer. However, it also signals that it is time for my August 2019 LEGO® haul post. Furthermore, this is a special haul because I have all of you to thank for it. For a few months now, I have been displaying affiliate links on True North Bricks.

My LEGO® haul posts usually come at the end of the month. But, this time around, I’m going to share the info a little early. I just got my LEGO® Ambassador Network (LAN) shipment, and I can’t contain my excitement until the end of the month. I am also trying something new with this haul… I’m posting the un-boxing on

Another month has come to an end, meaning that it is time for a new LEGO® haul post! I already posted at the beginning of the month about my first LEGO® Ambassador Network (LAN) shipment, so I won’t rehash that here (but, you can click here if you are interested in reading about it). Today, we will focus on the

I shared some pretty big news in May about how True North Bricks became a Recognized LEGO® Fan Media (RLFM) site. That was a pretty big milestone for me, and really felt like a major validation of the work I have put into this site.
