Disabling VOICE For Transport (Barbie Princess/Pauper Set)
Greetings.
Perhaps someone can help us out here. We were packing up The Big Box that we send back to New Jersey via UPS 3 or 4 days before we fly back for the holidays. It's got all the presents in it. Anyway, we got the Barbie Princess/Pauper deal for one of my nieces. Was starting to seal and apply the exoskeleton to The Big Box when all of the sudden we heard singing! It was the package --- both dolls ---- SINGING LIKE THEY DIDN'T HAVE A CARE IN THE WORLD! They both sing! Who knew? Both have a button on the front of the package that lets you hear a sample of them singing. Since we couldn't find a way to disable the singing for transport, we yanked it from The Big Box and will deal with getting it back to Jersey through some other method. I see some pink wires in there leading to the sample button and I just want to cut them. The theory: this will disable voice for transport. But it also might totally wreck the singing function. And we don't want to do that. But still, I want to cut the pink wires. If that doesn't work, I'm just going to have to put the whole thing in with my laptop and take it on the plane as carry-on. Having the two of them singing, we figured, would be a red flag to open the suitcase. Or The Big Box as it squirts through the chutes and ladders of UPS-land. Any suggestions on disabling voice for transport? Thanks Much, Jim & Lisa |

Any suggestions on disabling voice for transport? remove battery Give them books instead of toys so you have someone interesting to talk with in your old age. A book can be useful long after your dog Gus has chewed one of Barbie's legs off and then Janey stuck her in the garbage disposal and then off to the dump she went. However, I *would* like a Batman figure that shoots REAL sleep darts. -- HellPope Huey Everyone put your left shoe in this bag or the kid here GETS it I was brought up in that other service; but I knew from the first that the Devil was my natural master and captain and friend. I saw that he was in the right and that the world cringed to his conqueror only from fear. - George Bernard Shaw, "The Devil's Disciple" God does not play dice with the universe; He plays an ineffable game of his own devising, which might be compared, from the perspective of any of the other players, to being involved in an obscure and complex version of poker in a pitch dark room, with blank cards, for infinite stakes, with a dealer who won't tell you the rules and who smiles all the time. - Gaiman and Pratchett's "Good Omens" |
