Description
Dancerella was an almost 2 ft. tall ballerina doll with dark brown hair topped with a tiara. When you pushed on the tiara, she "danced" around by turning in a circle and kicking her leg up like ballet moves.

I got this for my birthday in 1988 , it never worked and her hair fell out. honestly i think i still have her.
I remember palying with this doll. Not sure if I owned one or not, but it way too difficult to make her spin.
I am trying to get one for my daughter!! My one didn't have blonde hair like the picture, she was a brunette!
I had one as a kid. It was blue though. and well My grandma sold it. I am still mad to this day! I want one to give to my lil girl!
I wanted this doll, but never got her. I had so many other dolls at the time
I still have mine. It is really hard to make her spin. It's like she has some sort of illness. btw I have the brunette one (much cuter).
Mine had dark hair and white tights. Loved her!!!!
Gosh I miss the 80's.
Gosh, i miss that doll.
I can't believe this is actually on here. I was searching through toys thinking about this doll! I was so proud of my doll I took her to show and tell at school! Mine had dark hair with white tights and a pink tutu!
I had a Dancerella as child...she also had the dark hair.She was given away all those years ago but I have just had a baby girl and wanted one for her so I bought one off Ebay!
If you dig out your old Dancerella and want to clean her up, be careful with her hair! It falls out very easily. I don't know if it's just because it's old or if the hair was always defective. (No wonder she originally came with a hair net!) It's shocking to see your doll's hair fall out.
our neighbor was a dancer, and so she got one of these Dancerina dolls, but in the late 60's early 70's. she was fun. they had brown hair, or blonde hair, and was available in a couple diff. sizes
I remember my sister and I had a Dancerella doll I had a black one I loved this doll . I don't know what happened to mine, but I'm about to be a grandma and I want one for my grand daughter.
I have a blonde dancerella doll, original outfit, I am selling for 75.00 or best offered, will send pics if requested. e-mail at sherry_lynn_here@yahoo.com if interested.
I remember getting a dancerella doll one year from my parents for christmas...i loved that dancerella and still do!!! She is my favorite doll of all-time...wish i still had her!!!!!!!!
I remember getting my Dancerella (the black one) back in 1979 one Christmas and to this day, I still have her and she still works too!!!
I had one with dark hair and I remember her hair became a knotted mess. She didn't last long, poor thing.
This doll pictured is Dancerina. As others have mentioned the one with dark hair was Dancerella. There are real Dancerella's on Ebay, check them out.
I had this doll for a few minutes until her hair got wrapped around my fingers and my mom returned her. The loss of my doll must have been traumatic because I still remember it at age 36.
