65th Anniversary Barbie

Preordering for the lovely 65th Anniversary African American Barbie commenced at the Mattel Creations website on 03/05/24 at 9 p.m. PST. I preordered at around 5 a.m. on 3/6/24 without any problems. The website reportedly jammed due to high traffic when ordering commenced. 

The doll retails for $60 plus tax and shipping. My order is scheduled to ship by June 19, 2024. The downside of ordering from Mattel Creations is that I had to become a Mattel Creations (MC) member for an additional $9 to order from their site. 

My preference was to order from Amazon to eliminate the extra $9 MC club membership and shipping, but I went ahead and secured the doll from Mattel. The Amazon buy page is "live," but preordering is not available at this time (3/6/24 10 a.m. CST). Keep visiting the Amazon link below if you'd like to eliminate MC's club fee and shipping. 

Here is the Amazon buy page link to have when ordering is available. 

Preordering was available at Walmart's website earlier today, but the doll is sold out there at this time (3/6/24 10:00 a.m.) Here is the Walmart buy page to check back for replenished stock.
