I Want A Dora The Explorer Talking Boots Toy

Can anyone help me in locating a Dora the exploror Talking Boots the monkey soft toy.

They are selling on ebay for about £25.00 but not sure if this is the proper retail cost.

Would love to get him for my grandson

    Oh we used to so love Dora and Boots and specially Swiper!

    Our local Early Learning Centre had them on offer about 2 weeks ago for about £10. I remember thinking that they may be stopping the range as all of the Dora things were very cheap indeed. The talking Boots we had (who has long since found a happy new home) was about 10 or 11 inches tall and said about 3 phrases. If you do find one on Ebay then I would suggest that you double check the size as there are quite a few very small Boots around and you don't want to pay for one thinking it is the all singing one to find the 2 inch toy.

    Good luck

    They are lovely toys. Even though my little one is too old (so he says!) for Dora we did just buy the introductory magazine for £3 with an episode on DVD as well as 4 little PC games...he really loved it.

    It is NCT Season again - if you don't mind second hand there are usually loads of fantastic toys going to new homes. Our local sales are terrific and well worth a visit - I would guess there are loads of the named character toys, there usually are.
