Let's stand back a bit and calm down.

The rumor mill has been running for quite a long time now and frankly, with all the hype, from Bionicle to Technic, from Racers/Super Champions to Elves, even Creator and Architecture (hell, even a single packet of grey 32x32 baseplate), it's easy to get a bit out of control. Just ask me.

2015 is surely set to become an amazing year, sure, but of course TLG doesn't want to get things out of hand, and us FOL's do not want to be disappointed once the hype dies down and the sets (and themes) come out.

So I ask everyone to calm down, sit down, breathe deeply, and let all the pictures you saw sink in.

Then think about these:

1. Surely LEGO would have taken down the pictures earlier, right?
   
2. Why perpetuate this MUCH hype?
   

Basically, let's discuss 2015 in LEGO here. Let's talk about the sets themselves here, knowing that they'd come, and that's it.

We have discussion threads for the individual themes in the various theme forums for exactly that purpose. So, unless this is not what you're suggesting, I'm going to lock this thread and refer everyone to the respective discussion threads.

It's for ALL of what's coming in 2015. Not specific themes, but all of them. The basic conversation that I want to start concerns with what came up and how parts of the community are reacting, and that, if we discuss them, we have to keep cool and "control the fires".

As I said before, I don't see the point of discussing news in one place (we have theme-specific discussion threads for that). I don't see what's gotten out of hand and what there is to discuss regarding people's reaction to the news, so I'm going to go ahead and lock this thread.
