Heading to Japan soon and will be travelling all over! A lot of places seem to be shut nowadays. Anyone got some more current information about buying BJD or clothes/accessories for them? I know about Mandarake!
I bought a lot at the volks showroom/store in Harajuku (the store is upstairs from the showroom), and the dolk store in tokyo had some good stuff too! The dollfie store I went to was in some kind of mall but I don't remember which part of Tokyo, they had lots of clothes and accessories.
They have lots of shops of all sorts at Akihabara. The mall the person above mentioned is Radiokaikan there.
1. Radio Kaikan (Akihabara) - 8F: Volks Akihabara - 7F: Azone/Dolk JP - 5F: Dollyteria 2. Akihabara - Dolk JP (Cross the River @ Yanagi Shrine) - Mandarake Akihabara (2F) - Doll UP (Cross the river using the large bridge near Radio Kaikan and turn left) 3. Ikebukuro - Dollyteria 4. Shinjuku - Dollyteria 5. Harajuku - Tenshi No Mado (Volks) 6. Shibuya - Mandarake
Thank you for this wonderful list. I knew about some of them, but not all. I will have to find at least a few more of them when I’m next in Tokyo.
The shops listed above are maybe the largest but you still have many more like mandarake in nakano as well. I recoment a wig shop in akihabara called dollce. It’s a bit far from the station but you have so many options.
I'd forgotten that Dollce has an actual brick-and-mortar shop! In addition to wigs, they also sell vinyl doll heads. And for their 1/12 heads, they also sell them as full sets. Here's their Twitter account, Japanese site, International site & Etsy shop.
