Thanks, added all the descriptions in. Not sure if it's worthy of a news article (we don't generally make news articles just for things being listed on the shop), but it's been a pretty slow news week, I'm not worried if someone does want to make one.

I would if they were actually available to buy since the sets are highly anticipated, but otherwise it seems like a clickgrabber, which is poor journalism.

Not that it's incredibly newsworthy, but expect 2015 sets shortly, on the grounds that if you type in the set name and code into the LEGO shop you get a product currently unavailable message, which doesn't appear for anything other than 2015 sets. See:

http://shop....f-Fire-70787 http://shop....rusher-70745 http://shop....Raider-70755

Using this trick I also have reason to believe that some of the Ninjago sets we have images for are actually part of wave 2 coming later this year, due to their product unavailable pages not being available.

I understand why we cannot post photos, but we can't report on it either? We reported on all the Jurassic World leak, and if it's because there's no confirmation from LEGO, why did we report on the BIONICLE leaks?

In LEGO's message they asked that we don't share them because it infringes license agreements. BIONICLE wouldn't have that issue. I don't think that it bars reporting about them, but still.
