Maro didn't hype anything. People that hear him got hype on their own. He say that they'll be future shift card, and he deliver.
Now, if he say there'll a great future shift card, or a rare future shift card, and hand us this, that's another story.
Announcing that there's a specific card in the said that's unique (in this case, futureshifted) before the set is spoiled is definitely hyping it up, in the same way that if, when the next Fall set is announced, he said "There will be a card from the reserved list in [Set Name]!" and then it's Thunder Spirit.

At the same time, you have to look at all the possibilities, and prepare for the worst. As mentioned, he only said a card that was future-shifted would be printed. So ignoring the 5 vanillas would be silly. ESPECIALLY after we saw NESSIAN Asp.

Well, I'd be pretty excited if they reprinted Thunder Spirit...
Bolt got reprinted once in modern and MaRo has stated many times that it is too powerful for standard right now. He has also stated that the spells need to be brought down to creature level. So no lightning bolt aint coming again he MaRo is trying to nerf non creature spells.
EDIT: Nothing wrong with reprinting bolt. Considering how galvanic blast saw play in Scars.
Do you understand that MaRo works on design and never development anymore and has no say on the power level of cards?
Printing Bolt also warps the format and probably requires a ramp of creature power level to compensate.
