If you’ve been glued to your screen waiting for the Ava DuVernay Shero Barbie to go on sale, it’s time to take a breather. Contrary to what some sources are saying, the much-anticipated doll won’t be available until tomorrow—December 8. While two customer service reps confirmed this date, there’s been some confusion from Barbie’s official channels. Am I the only one who’s spent an hour clicking refresh, hoping to snag this collectible?
Just yesterday, Ava tweeted that the release would happen today, and even Barbie herself chimed in with the same message. CNN ran the story, but still, no sign of the Ava Barbie. After a frustrating hour of refreshing the Barbie Collection site, I decided to call customer service. Both representatives assured me that the doll would indeed launch tomorrow, although they couldn’t pinpoint a precise time. One mentioned that special collections generally drop at 11 a.m. Central, while the other suggested getting online at 12:01 a.m.
Interestingly, both reps noted that the Ava DuVernay Barbie will be offered in “limited quantities.” But I’m going for it anyway! I often tease my partner for saving special items for our kids to enjoy later, but this time, it’s different. I want to buy this doll for my daughter as a sort of “time capsule” gift. My hope is that by the time she’s old enough to recognize the significance of honoring black women’s achievements, it’ll be commonplace. Perhaps she’ll be surprised that such a groundbreaking moment—celebrating the first black female director nominated for an Academy Award for Best Picture—was once such a big deal.
Ava DuVernay is generously donating her earnings from the sales to support the civil rights organization ColorOfChange.org and the human rights non-profit Witness. Barbie’s general manager, Evelyn Mazzocco, emphasized the brand’s commitment to showcasing powerful female role models who are paving the way for future generations of trailblazers.
