Major Confusion Over Gray LEGO Goat: New Goat Drama on 'Pick a Brick'?

The gray LEGO goat first appeared in 'Pick a Brick' and then disappeared again. What happened? LEGO Comments.

The LEGO 6490240 Gray Goat was only available to order at Pick a Brick for about 30 minutes, but then mysteriously disappeared.

Was the goat too big?

We remember: the Tainted Goat was once only released in a medieval set and cost around €100 on the secondary market before the new goat was released. Now the goat first appeared in white, then in dark gray. And exactly that variant could be ordered – but only for a short time.

With “Pick a Brick” many elements can be ordered individually online, but there are limitations on the number of pieces.

The price was (too) high

So what happened? The solution to the puzzle: LEGO listed the goat – and other elements – at the wrong price. All orders were cancelled. Perhaps this was a case of goodwill. For anyone who is now worried: the goat should be available to order again from today – at the adjusted price.

LEGO has released a statement – ​​automatically translated below.

Statement from LEGO

On July 1st, we were able to offer, among other innovations, one of the largest LEGO elements of all time, the LEGO Goat (6490240), via the online service “Pick a Brick”. Unfortunately, a pricing error was discovered on a number of new items, including the LEGO Goat. Approximately 30 minutes after the launch, these items were temporarily removed to investigate the problem. At this point, the cause of the error has been identified and resolved, and the gray LEGO goat will be available again at Pick a Brick on July 3rd.

In accordance with LEGO.com's terms and conditions, all LEGO Goat orders placed on or after July 1st have been or will be cancelled.
