Description
This was a plastic girl pig in a dress that was hard plastic on a stand that held a small, fake microphone in her hand and a real microphone to plug in for the child to use. When she was turned on, the "body" or dress would sway back and forth and her mouth would move to the child's voice making it look like she was singing or talking.

I don't remember an adorable Dora?? Are you sure you are not mixed up with the current Dora?
Wow,a singing doll that uses your voice...Never heard of it..sounds creepy to me. 0.o
He is not confused with modern day Dora. I just got one at a yard sale for $1
Dora wasn't a pig, she was a hippo. Sort of a childs version of karaoke and it was the funniest thing ever. I think the adults liked it better than the kids. Wish I could find one somewhere.
My sisters and I had an adorable dora and we loved playing with that singing hippo! Wish I could find one now...and she wasn't creepy to us.
I have an Adorable Dora that we are trying to fix for our granddaughter as a gift. We don't know whether or not we are going to be able to fix it so I thought we might be able to find another one. Looks as though we are out of luck. She is a hippo and she was lots of fun.
