My friend had this doll. .she scared the crap out of me!

My sister had this doll too. When you squeezed her stomach, she would also laugh, like you tickled her. We actually still have it laying around in a box.

We have had 4 of these dolls,I bought them at toys r us when they were clearenced. My daughter got the first one,then my 2step grand daughters (one got my daughters) there are 2 in the basement-one still in the box for my new grandaughter when she gets older.

Haha, I had this doll! I loved her! I liked to condition her to respond to mean/funny words.

my friend had one and swore up and down it was haunted. She kept it in a box in the closet and absolutely refused to put batteries in it.

We purchased this doll the year she came out for our daughter Juli who was 4 at that time, she enjoyed her very much, unfortunately we do not have the instructions or box, I do have her original outfit, light pink sweater and darker pink cordoroy pants, book and stickers but never purchased additional cards, I know she has some secret words that make her talk more, but I do not remember them all, if anyone has additional info on this doll that could help me, please leave a comment, I can get her to sing Rock a bye baby, Twinkle Twinkle little star, she does recognize dark and light, my 8 year old niece enjoys playing with her when I visit. My daughter has passed away at a early age of 15, so this doll is very special to me. I will keep it and cherish it always.

I had this doll when I was a kid. I wanted it really bad so I got it for Xmas. I loved it, it was my favorite toy, but at the same time I felt bad because my parents had to pay such a high price for it. It was about $112 SMH @ the price

does anyone know how much this doll cost when it was new?

I have the Brazilian version of this doll!She looks exactly the same, but her name is Nadia and she speaks Portuguese instead (obviously). Her original outfit was the same, except she didn't come with the hat and the scarf. She was my all time dream doll, but since it was stupid expensive, i didn't get her at the time. I finally bought her recently out of a Brazilian auction website. It wasn't until today i found out about her American twin sister, Julie XD This is so cool!

I bought this doll for my daughter in 84 or so, and it was the same price as Cricket (who wasn't programmed to do anything but play a tape), around $50 or so. We still have the doll and her books. This doll was so ahead of it's time, I think it was only on the market a short time. They still haven't come out with a doll with the capabilities of Julie!

Hi...Does anyone know what some secret words might be? I bought one off Ebay and she is great but I know she can say more. Thanks. Belinda

I had one of these dolls...she used to really scare me when she would say something new. Sometimes I thought she was possessed. I had to keep her in my closet at night, because I was scared that she would come alive. Don't get me wrong, I did enjoy having this doll and I still have her, too. Although she doesn't work anymore.

mine always messed up and we'd have to reprogram her. it got to where you'd have to reprogram her every time you turned her on. they now just came out with a new one. hope it works better! but i did have fun with it. funny story- it turned on one night when i was spending the night at my cousin's house. freaked us out!

i have one like new in box like to know the value of her

yes she was 69# love to know what she worth today like new

I have a Julie doll in her original packaging...Never played with...What would be her value???

A long lost friend of mine helped create the doll. Only 500 were distributed before Coleco filed suit claiming infringement of their Chatty Cathy. Obviously, Chatty Cathy couldn't hold a candle to Julie, but my friend didn't have the funds needed to fight Coleco. I found one at an auction some years ago and recently gave her to my daughter. I've often wished I could find my friend to see if disks were available.

i had this doll when i was a child. I played w/ her so much that I eventually broke her head. I loved this doll. I would love to find one for my dtr. Anyone know where I might find one?

I got one of these dolls for Christmas when I was younger. My sister got the Jill doll the next year, which I thought was way better! I took Julie to school for show and tell and I remember being so embarrassed because she wouldn't respond to my voice! I kept saying "Julie music" over and over and she wouldn't do what she was supposed to!

I LOVED THIS DOLL when I was a child. I would like to still have her today but I think she's lost forever. I remember one of her secret words was "melody" (not music). You could say either "Julie, sing me a melody" or "Julie, melody" and she will sing a short song. I can't remember any more right now but that one stick out in my memory!

for sale

My family still talks about how I would always talk to the doll in the same exact voice. Since they told me it recognized my voice I would always say "Juuuuulieeeeee?" in a really loud voice. Must have been fun for them. Didn't this doll also have to go to "sleep" at night? I remember having to cover her eyes until she "yawned" and fell asleep.

This was also my favorite doll as a child. I do have the original box, book, stickers, and outfit. The price tag on the box says it's $119.99 I do have a list of words that I had written out on a piece of paper when I was younger, but I'm pretty sure those are just words that she speaks.

I had this doll and I loved her....until I stepped on her one night and she talked to me without batteries. Needless to say, she was gone the next day!

i loved this doll. I got her when i was 7 i think. maybe earlier. i used to use her to scare my sisters sometimes. well whenever they'd pick on me. then she kinda started scaring me a little. one weekend i came home from my cousins house and she had a bump with a bruise on her right temple. needless to say it never disappeared. though i have many other stories about her wierding me out i still loved her. i don't have her anymore, unfortunately was not my decision, but i still have her book and her outfit is packed away somewhere in my closet. i would'nt mind getting another one just to have though.

I used to keep her in our basement family room. Julie was sensitive to both light and temperature. So all she would say was. I'm cold. And, Why is so dark in here.

I was just sitting here chuckling about Julie -- in particular, about my high expectations for her. They ran these very effective commercials in which a wise-sounding man would say all seriously, "Julie... the doll that understands." I thought she'd be a cross between a robot and a new best friend. I begged for her, got her for Christmas, and was totally disappointed! Would love to see one again.

OMG, I got Julie for Christmas when I was a little girl I LOVED her she was the best doll EVER even my younger brother liked her, he was also the one to poke one of her eyes out. I was so heartbroken but I also was little afraid of her after her eye accident. now years later I would love to buy one for my daughter. Anyone know where I can find one??

My daughter wanted this doll for Christmas in the 80's. I had never heard of it but found the last one on a shelf for $50.00 (I had heard it was $125. so I felt very lucky.) We loved playing with it and when she was at school I would program it to respond to me. It was WAY before it's time and I'm surprised they haven't come out with anything like it now. We also bought the books and extra disks so that she could do even more. She is now packed in original box waiting for grandchildren to play with it.
