You asked for it, and Mattel is about to deliver: the Ava DuVernay Barbies are going to be mass produced and available to the public.

“Tomorrow this Ava Barbie goes on sale for Christmas because enough folks asked to do so,” DuVernay announced on Twitter.

The proceeds from the Barbie’s sale will go toward Witness and Color of Change. The original DuVernay Barbie, which was at the time one-of-a-kind, was auctioned off for charity in April.

You can buy the doll starting on Monday, but availability details beyond that are still forthcoming.

Still, we know what we want to add to our Christmas lists!
