LK901 Posted December 27, 2014 Posted December 27, 2014 Looks like the original post was removed... I've still got it if anyone needs it, along with other sites. -Sci I'd appreciate it. I'm trying to add all the pages to Brickimedia..... Quote

Harmuth Posted December 27, 2014 Posted December 27, 2014 The Ferrari F40 is one of my favourite cars. I timed my 9 year break from lego very well :-) Quote
TheBrickPal Posted December 27, 2014 Posted December 27, 2014 Wonder what the Ninjago Temple and BIONICLE GWP could entail... Also, a reissue of the old or release of a new Winter Toy Shop? Quote
Darth Punk Posted December 27, 2014 Posted December 27, 2014 The list is still up on the brick fan as well. http://www.thebrickfan.com/lego-2015-set-release-dates-and-promo-details/ Quote
KringlesBricks Posted December 27, 2014 Posted December 27, 2014 (edited) I'm just thinking to myself how this got leaked...someone loose their job at TLG?? Or is this a "new" marketing strategy? Excited to see "a rumored" Ferris Wheel. Hoping it goes with the Carousel 10196. Edited December 27, 2014 by KringlesBricks Quote

Excited to see "a rumored" Ferris Wheel. Hoping it goes with the Carousel 10196. I dont think so that this is strategy in exclusive set range.There was also leak of whole exclusive set list for year 2012, this started hunt by lego to erase that list from internet.In 2014 full of fanpages or social networks this hunt is almost impossible to be sucessful.

I was asked by my contact to take it down, but now that it is on several sites already I fear that the task may be impossible... Quote
HawkLord Posted December 28, 2014 Posted December 28, 2014 I can see where these types of lists might hurt lego's licensed partners, but I don't know Lego can't let a list of their own material for the year be released. It really does help planning for costs, especially since everything tends to get more expensive. That list just made me more interested in the year's products and isn't that kinda the point of good marketing...? Quote

DD840 Posted December 28, 2014 Posted December 28, 2014 There's still more themes and items coming anyways - approved Lego Ideas, Elves, Scooby (or ?) Wondering how much the Ferris Wheel will be, getting excited! Quote

Robert8 Posted December 28, 2014 Posted December 28, 2014 Scooby has been confirmed by my contact as well. Great! Do you know the release date? Quote
DuckBricks Posted December 28, 2014 Author Posted December 28, 2014 Great! Do you know the release date? No news on that, sorry... Quote
DD840 Posted December 28, 2014 Posted December 28, 2014 Great! Do you know the release date? Did someone say fall sometime? We need another Haunted house! Quote
The Jersey Brick Guy Posted December 29, 2014 Posted December 29, 2014 Wondering how much the Ferris Wheel will be, getting excited! I'd imagine in the same price range as the Fair Ride. My bank account is going to be so light after this year. Quote
XAxles Posted December 29, 2014 Posted December 29, 2014 I'd imagine in the same price range as the Fair Ride. My bank account is going to be so light after this year. So, Carousel, Fairground Mixer (which I think contains, what, 1/4 the Creator Expert Carnival, I think?) and now Ferris wheel? Ah-hoot!Oh, oh, oh, this makes me want a Viking-like ride... and maybe (MAYBE, though this is but wishful thinking) a Modular Roller Coaster... or even this: HELLZ YEAH!!! Wait, so someone might one-up me with a drop tower. I shall now summon... THE NEXT CREATOR CIRCUS RIDE!!! YEAH!!! Quote

That list just made me more interested in the year's products and isn't that kinda the point of good marketing...? I agree with you Hawkman. After seeing the list I'm fairly pumped and eager for the releases. In fact I now can plan for costs as well. It's cool to see the rumour mill wasn't off base either. The biggest problem for TLG is competitors and knockoff companies producing cheaper products to compete directly. The Lego Group's competitors are no where near the level of their products nor have I ever seen anything resembling what they produce. (Except maybe play-mobile but they are not a building toy). Chinese knockoffs are just that and I doubt they impact Lego's market. Edited December 30, 2014 by Wodanis Quote

(Except maybe play-mobile but they are not a building toy). Chinese knockoffs are just that and I doubt they impact Lego's market. Context is everything. The reason what you say is true is because of TLG's secretive nature. Otherwise if TLG did release information much earlier their biggest problem would be knockoffs. What you also have to consider is a good amount of people don't necessarily care about quality, but rather price. The term lego gets thrown around in describing a variety of building block products. So when some go shopping they see mega bloks and think lego blocks but cheaper. Thats how those products continue to exist. Thus if a person walked into a store next Christmas and saw two Ferris wheels(hypothetically of course) and one was half the price of the other which one do you think they would buy? I realize that everyone here would choose one product over the cheaper knockoff but we are a small portion of the overall lego market. The toy market is very competitive and any advantage you give your competitor will be reflected by your sales. Quote
The Jersey Brick Guy Posted December 30, 2014 Posted December 30, 2014 No news on that, sorry... I saw a rumor on Instagram that there is going to be a new monorail in 2015. Can you ask your source about it? Quote
Ondra Posted December 30, 2014 Posted December 30, 2014 I saw a rumor on Instagram that there is going to be a new monorail in 2015. Can you ask your source about it? This rumour circulate about name of city set metro mdp.I say monorail never happen, too much specialized parts and I think they somewhere say that new monorail is not viable. Quote

Someone posted on here a few months ago saying that they were never going to do another monorail due to the parts required. The person who posted the rumor has been pretty accurate in the past. For the life of me though, I can not find the post. Quote

My source doesn't know much about set lists, sorry. Apparently Lego hasn't revealed that monorail set quite yet, if it exists. Quote
