Had I known how to do it, I'd make some myself.
I THINK it involves an Adobe software that has the ability to change the tempo of a recording without having to change the speed.

I hear it's good for doing "munked up" versions of songs, BUT, whenever people try to repitch dialogue from something Chipmunk related to present a scene in "real voices", they never do them right.

Audacity does a good job at that, too

Lol, reminds me of a fanfic I read where Alvin suddenly falls for Jeanette, as she does him, so Brittany decides she has an idea of how to make them jealous by having Simon pose as HER new boyfriend. Cute story, but I never thought I'd see Alvin fall for the quiet, nerdy type.

It doesn't seem like he would...
I want to find a cute Theodore doll :smile:. I really should have bought that Eleanor doll when I saw it on ebay to :stick_out_tongue:.

You know, the funny thing I noticed is in some episodes they started calling Theodore "Teddy" o.o

The only time I've heard Theodore refered to as "Teddy" was "Funny, We Shrunk the Adults", which was not only the last episode of the series, but the last episode of the Go to the Movies" season, so...

Other than that, sometimes I hear him refered to as "Theo", much like how sometimes Eleanor is refered to as "Ellie".

But man, those dolls on eBay are OUTRAGEOUS! I mean I realize they're collectibles, and are worth a lot of money these days, but nobody can afford them... I certainly can't, and I would love to get my hands on Jeanette!

I know I am a little bit older than you and I don't even ever remember seeing them in stores anywhere ;.;

I never saw ANY Chipmunk merchandise anywhere when I was a kid.

I mean other than recent DVDs, the only time I saw something Chipmunk related in my town was like some kind of 25 cent ride at like Wal-Mart like it was a little car you could pretend to drive, and old-school Alvin, Simon, and Theodore were sitting in the back.

Other than the cartoon and the 80's movie and fast food toys there was not much in the way of toys that I can remember...I would have so asked for those dolls if I knew they had even been made ;.; But $600? someone is being a little bit greedy IMHO...It's better to sell them apart and even then, $200 each :stick_out_tongue:? I'm not a MIB collector anyway, I would just open it *lol*
