Mattel released a Barbie to commemorate Queen Elizabeth II’s 96th birthday — and it sold out Friday.
The $75 doll was released Wednesday but not announced until the monarch’s birthday. Even though the company had a buying limit of three per buyer, it has sold out online.
“Barbie celebrates the longest ruling monarch in British history, Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II,” its product description reads. “Reaching 70 years of service, Queen Elizabeth II becomes the first British monarch to celebrate a Platinum Jubilee. This collectible doll wears an elegant ivory gown and blue riband adorned with decorations of order. A stunning crown and matching accessories complete her regal ensemble.”

Even her packaging was designed to replicate Buckingham Palace’s throne room for those “who may want to keep the doll in her box to preserve its collectible value,” according to the press release.
