my DD has just asked for a talking Jessie doll for Christmas, can anyone tell me the difference between the "talking" doll and the "yodelling" doll, just so I know what to get if I find any in stock anywhere thanks

The Toy Story 3 talking Jessie just basically says a few phrases when you pull her string at the back. The Toy Story Collection Yodelling Jessie is interactive, so responds to your voice (she doesn't actually 'reply' as such lol, but she says her phrases in response to you talking to her, if that makes sense?).

I'm going to have a little rant here actually at the robbing f***ers on Ebay Someone else posted a Bullseye a page or 2 back at £80.00 BIN and I myself found the Toy Story Aliens at £50.00+ It makes me SO angry. Yes, I know no-one is forcing anyone to pay those prices but if the greedy gits on Ebay didn't buy up the stock in the first place, purely with the intention of selling it at vastly over the RRP to desperate parents then we might not keep finding ourselves in the situation of stock proving so hard to find.

Rant over. As you were.......

if you buy items with the intention of selling them on ebay, then you have to register for an ebay business account. if they havent done this, then report them - ok its not that big a deal, but it puts a spanner in the works, for a while

...can anyone recommend any good games for us and my 6 year old as she is really into them now - she has got Guess Who Extra, Kerplunk, Elefun and Hullabaloo (which is fantastic fun for anyone with a 2 - 6 year old if not already got) -..

I got the talking one from disneystore using the £5 off code, 10% off code and ordered some baby einstein keys to use a code for free delivery. If your dd doesnt mind which one you have then this is the best deal on Jessie

Just checked my email Jessie £15.50, baby einstein keys £3.87 so for less than the £20 I would have spent on Jessie I have another gift for a friends baby and delivered free. I did buy some other bits so the £5 off was split across each item purchased but gives you an idea of rough price.

I've just read disneystore details and it says she yodels as well, so I think the difference is the interactive version will respond to your voice when you speak to her and has a few more phrases. hth

I said I would update about boobooandsquirt.
I received my order from them today. Have to say I am pleased with items and delivery.
I know they have spammed their own site on the forum. But fair play with order and delivery.
Wish they have introduced themselves better.

What was the original RRP - are you talking about the full size one (the kids go in) or the model one?

I think it was about £40. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Vivid-Imaginations-WWE-Cell-Playset/dp/B000NIX0OC It says its 13" tall. Kicking myself for not getting it at the time
