Joe Jonas
The Joe Jonas celebrity doll portrays him at nineteen years old as the character Shane Gray from the 2008 Disney move Camp Rock. The doll was made by Play Along (a divistion of Jakks Pacific, Inc.) in 2008. The Shane and Mitchie Camp Rock two doll set was issued in both singing version and not singing. Single dolls of Shane and Mitchie also came in both versions. A non singing Tess doll was also made. The Demi Lovato doll is featured in the museum.
Joe Jonas is an American singer, songwriter, actor and dancer. He is known as a member of the pop rock band, The Jonas Brothers, with his brothers Kevin and Nick. Their notoriety took off by playing on the Disney Channel.
From the box:
Camp Rock
Camp Rock is the Disney Channel Original Movie everybody’s talking about, and MITCHIE AND SHANE are the BIGGEST NEWS IN CAMP!
MITCHIE TORRES AND SHANE GRAY REALLY SING!
When Mitchie sings “THIS IS ME” at FINAL JAM, SHANE knows it’s her voice he’s been seeking. He joins her on stage to sing “GOTTA FIND YOU”.. and the rest is CAMP ROCK HISTORY.
Mitchie Torres thinks her prayers are answered when her mother gets them jobs as cooks at Camp Rock! She soon finds tough competition in the classroom… and for the attention of Shane Gray, the camp’s celebrity instructor. Longing to break out and find her own voice, Mitchie pours her heart into her music, and Shane is mesmerized as he overhears her singing. Hoping to meet the girl that inspired him, Shane sets out to find “the girl with the voice.” Will he ever find her?
The singing Joe Jonas doll plays the song Gotta Find You from the belly speaker of the doll. Four LR44/A87 batteries are in the screwed down storage compartment in the back. A demo/full play switch is located under the doll’s left armpit and the play button is the belly button.

The Joe Jonas singing doll comes a replica of the outfit he wore during the final Jam duet with Demi Lavato in the Camp Rock movie. The top is a black nylon windbreaker type jacket with shoulder loops, pockets, and fake zipper as decoration. Underneath is a short sleeved black, gray, and white shiny square patterned shirt that has a Velcro closure up the entire back. The pants are a medium gray cotton material with a Velcro opening in the back. Painted white underwear underneath.
The doll has painted molded black hair with the part on the doll’s left rather than the right like Jonas wore it. Perhaps it was made to match the reversed photo of the pair on the box front. Painted black eyebrows, brown eyes and dark pink open mouth lips with a slight toothy smile complete the face.
The shoes come with black plastic sneakers with white soles. They have a split up the back for easy removal.
The accessories include a plastic brown sun burst acoustic guitar with black plastic removable strap and a hand microphone. Unfortunately the doll was not articulated enough to do anything but hold the mic as the end of a straight arm.
The singing Shane doll is articulated at the neck (turns around to side only), shoulders (stiff ball joint moves down to horizontal and front to back), elbows (twist but do not bend), hips (front to back and side ways about 45 degrees), knees (bend full 90 degrees. and ankles (twist around). The wrists and torso are fixed.
