If you wanted an Ava DuVernay Barbie and you didn't purchase one yet, it's not looking good for you. Here's a look at how the fewer-than-one-thousand dolls created in the Selma filmmaker's likeness sold out immediately.
Ava DuVernay's excited about her Barbie, too
As of 1PM/10AM ET/PT Monday, the Barbie was available online.
People had been waiting.

Yep, Mattel confirmed that the doll officially sold out on the site.
So, a few hours later, Mattel shared another link, on Amazon, for purchasing the Ava Barbie:
