The Lonely BJD Planet - (Google Map Dollie BJD Shop Guide)

Jun 30, 2011

    1. Hello dollie folks!

      midspace & I have put together a public Google map that marks BJD related physical stores (as opposed to online shops) around the world.

      LINK: The Lonely BJD Planet
      [​IMG]

      These are stores that carry resin-cast BJDs as well as vynil BJDs (such as Obitsu, Dollfie Dream, Azone, etc). Some of the stores we have listed may not have a focus on BJD, but we've included them anyway as they may have accessories & clothes that you may find of interest for your dollies.

      If you can contribute to our map (either to correct existing info or to add a store profile), please contact us by way of the Private Messaging or post your information in this thread.
      But please provide us with specific information (we cannot use vague descriptions for example: "there's a shop at the bottom level of this mall, in this suburb, you get to it using this bus route") instead please provide us at least with the:

      (1) name of the shop
      (2) website
      (3) official street address




      Thank you for your attention!

    2. This is awesome, it should be stickied! XD

      I'm not sure if it is a physical shop or not (I'm sure someone here knows XD) but Fairyland's address is this:

      #201 songeun / B D2-1, donam1-dong, sungbuk-gu, Seoul, Korea
       
    3. Thank you! we've got a few other additions as well, please be patient while I get our "technical boy" (midspace) to put all the info in.
       
    4. Should some more of the Mandarake shops in Japan be included aside from Nakano Broadway? They're not exclusively dolls, but some of the locations do carry second hand dolls and clothing. I'll get the addresses of the best ones and send them if you'd like. There's one in Osaka that I'm thinking about specifically.

      EDIT: Here's the websites to the locations I had luck finding doll stuff in. I didn't have a lot of luck getting the English addresses. I might have them in my files, but it will take a bit of time for me to find them. I'll put the Japanese addresses in, since at least they're searchable on the maps.

      Mandarake Grandchaos (Osaka)
      http://www.mandarake.co.jp/en/shop/gcs.html
      大阪府中央区西心斎橋2-9-22
      This one was actually pretty good. Good deals on second-hand clothing. Some dolls in stock.

      Mandarake Shibuya store
      http://www.mandarake.co.jp/en/shop/sby.html
      31-2 Udagawachō Shibuya-ku B2 fl, Shibuya Beam Bldg
      this one had a couple dolls in stock, but very, very little in the way of clothing/wigs/etc.
       
    5. @Edtel: Yes that's fine :D Just send it to Helene. The more the merrier :)
       
    6. Please pm us with this infrmation as long as its up to date and accurate, it would be so great thanks! We havent been able to verify if the mandarake shops indeed do this.
       
    7. Mandarake Akihabara Complex also has second-hand BJDs, clothes, and the Himekazura wigs. The address they give is 東京都千代田区外神田3丁目11-12 (which I think would translate to 11-12 Sanchome, Sotokanda, Chiyoda ward, Tokyo)

      Les Golfes is a doll shop that imports and sells Volks standards. They're at c/ Diputació 256 Barcelona, Spain.
       
    8. The doll market in NC carries various BJDs, clothes, and some OT dolls like blythes, momoko, etc.

      Doll Market
      4215 High Point Road Greensboro, NC 27407
      (336) 632-4600

      http://www.dollmarket.com/
      (sadly their website isn't as easy to navigate by doll size/brand any more, at least clothing wise)
       
    9. thank you! they have been added
       
    10. We need more stores in South Korea. Can anybody contribute meaningful information?
       
    11. A small contribution to the shops in Taiwan

      Not added:
      "Mimiwoo". Their listed address is an office. They do not have a physical shop. [CONFIRMED with Mimiwoo]
      "Fairyland" Korea. Confirmed as Workshop (ie., factory). No sales. No showroom.
       
    13. There is a slightly BJD related shop in Philadelphia PA (USA). I say slightly, because they are technically a toy store, and for dolls that they do have, they mostly deal in fashion and antique dolls. They do carry a lot of clothes and wigs and shoes, and other accessories that are suitable for BJDs though (mostly Kish and Berdine Creedy).
      And as far as actual BJDs, they do have some Bishonen House guys available. I dunno if they are a dealer or not though, as I've never bought a doll through them before.

    15. In Bangkok, there is a shop selling BJD items (and occasionally a BJD or two) in JJ Mall, Chatuchak.

      Bambino Dolls
      2nd floor, JJ Mall,
      Kamphaeng Phet 2, Chatuchak, Bangkok 10900, Thailand

      There's also Monaeglow in Chatuchak Market itself, but I haven't personally been there - the market is a seriously confusing maze! :XD:

    18. Yes, this is the only Nine9 Style shop.

    26. We have Bambino and Monaeglow details already on the map thankyou.


      Have added the additional detail to the Spiritdoll map information.

      Email from GreenTime Family (Melting Time) www.gtimefamily.com confirms they do not have a physical shop.
      " we only have the online shop in Taobao:*http://greentime07.taobao.com/**"
       
    27. Thanks a million for this!! !!!!
      I think there is only 1 Azone labelshop in Akihabara-- Radio Kaiken 1 (6F), I think you have this mapped also.
       
    28. Thanks, we have that one! We have been a little unsure if it was still operating after hearing about the closure of the Radio Kaikan building due to the earthquake.
      https://maps.google.com/maps/ms?msi...0.006186,0.016469&iwloc=0004a6c442ae536d981c9

      We have a second Azone Labelshop here, still listed on the Azone website.
      https://maps.google.com/maps/ms?msi...0.006186,0.016469&iwloc=0004a6c4db5376e98097f

      It seem that Volks have also changed their website links to all the Nests and Showrooms. I cannot find an English language pages for them any more either.

      (Ikebukuro still appears unchanged on the Volks site http://www.volks.co.jp/jp/shop/ikebukuro_sr/ ;) )
       
    29. Azone is now at Radio Kaiken 1. Right next door to the original Radio Kaiken building, which is in fact being re-built. I can check when I go, but I am pretty sure that's their only loc in Akiba.

      Yes, Volks changed so much! Ikebukuro is now listed differently, but its still there!! (((duh, on my part)))

      But mostly I just want to say...THANK YOU!!!! :) <3
       
    30. Went to Hong Kong recently.

      KiraKira appears to be no longer at the Pakpolee Commercial center listed. The spot was a place selling deco stuff.



      Ginza plaza seems to have fewer BJD shops than they used to. The one that was a bunch of little cubicles right when you enter is now a shop selling military figures.

      At Ginza Plaza, there is also La Princess/ yukijiro at B39 Ginza Plus,2A Sai Yeung Choi Street South,Mongkok,Kowloon,Hong Kong http://www.yukijiro.net/
       
    31. Thank you.
      It appears a number of the shops in Hong Kong do shift around regularly, and even appear temporary at times.
      The KiraKira address is still out of date on their Chinese website (13F before they moved to 16F), and on the English site it still lists the 16 floor of Pakpolee. I'm endeavouring to get in contact with them to find out where they are now.
       
    32. I have updated our map today with a few more things (some are not strictly BJD dolls, they also contain artist ball jointed dolls made out of porcelain housed in amazing looking galleries that it's simply a treat to just stroll into the area):

      BJD related:
      - MuDoll (a.k.a. Glib.co.kr) Showroom and Cafe (Sth Korea)

      Porcelain BJDs & Artist Dolls & Other interesting galleries that happened to be discovered whilst I was trolling:
      - Parabolica-bis (Japan)
      - Lapis Doll Boutique (Japan)
      - Yokohama Romankan (Japan)
      - Maria Cuore Gallery (Japan)
      - Dol's Ballad (Japan)

      Other Dolls:
      - Juniemoon Headquarter & showroom (Japan)
       
    33. I found a BJD shop in Maryland! MD-ers rejoice!
      Store Name: Fabric Friends & Dolls

      Website: http://www.fabricfriendsdolls.com/

      Street Address:
      6836 Olney Laytonsville Road
      Gaithersburg, MD 20882
       
    34. Yay, now I can visit these shops since I'm in Japan and all :D also in luck because I get to visit Thailand and Korea as well for free every year
       
    35. I got a picture of the Volks Akihabara Showroom storefront:
      [​IMG]


      The "Museum Akihabara Kotobukiya" is actually the (main?) Kotobukiya store (5 floors).
      It does carry Obitsu 50cm and the smaller Obitsus. They sell fullset Obitsu girls, basic Obitsu girls, outfits, and option parts. There were also 2 non-Obitsu dolls in the display case with them. One was a fullset 60cm resin boy BJD and the other was a 60cm girl similar to Obitsus.
      There were no Bluefairy items in that store.


      And cafeSAYA gave me a weird address when I searched its hours before my trip. It said the cafe was at:
      Sasebo, Nagasaki prefecture, 125-34 Hashikawa Yoshii town
      TEL: 0956-64-3630
      T 859-6311

      Also, the site said nothing about Bluefairy BJDs.
      However, now the link is taking me to a cafe in Tokyo that seems to sell BF dolls and I'm very confused. XP
      I'm kinda sad cause I guess I could've gone to it...
       
    36. Map Updated with Valkyrie Gate (Thailand)
       
    37. Big thank you for this thread and the compiling efforts. This helped a lot XD

      Just wondering if anyone been to WingMax Taipei shop.. I happen to be on route to Taipei. Checked the shop list and thinking to visit it since it seems to be the easiest to get to. I just hope they'll understand English.. *zero knowledge in Chinese language*
       
    38. Sadly, Kerbey Lane's storefront in Austin closed early this year. They were a Volks official dealer. I'm not even sure if they still have the electronic store.

      :(
       
    39. Hey all!
      (I hope this is the right place to post, else I'm kindly asking the mods for forgiveness and help with moving the post to the right place)
      So, I'm going to Tokyo in two days and I wonder if THIS is still adequate and if there are some places I should prioritize etc. It would be really great to know what you guys think!
      I'm going to study Japanese and learn a little about tea ceremonies, yukatas and whatnot - and the school has already planned afternoon trips and tours for us. However they're not BJD-crazy like I am - so I would love your input. Same goes for 2nd hand stores with toys :D

      Thanks a bunch!
       
    40. thanks <3 (why didn't I find these when I was looking)
       
    41. I'm not sure but I think the Kobe Volks store has moved (March 9, 2013)?

    42. Just popping in to say that Crobidoll is no longer where you've got it tagged. My Korean is practically non-existent, but I think the nice security guard was trying to tell me they'd moved. Regardless, the 3rd floor of that building is empty now.
       
    43. We find that a bit surprising having visited there June last year.

      The address of the shop on their website does not appear to have changed, and does list Floor 2, not 3.
      2F, 111-55 Seongnae-dong, Gangdong-gu, Seoul, Republic of Korea, 134-030
      http://crobidolls.com/infodesk/company_intro.php?req_mode=4

      Was this the building you visited?

      [​IMG]

      Signage high up on the left side of the building.

      Crobidoll shop images:
      https://www.flickr.com/photos/midspace/tags/crobidoll/
       
    44. Yes, it was. And I looked for signage outside the building, more than once. There was no signage inside or outside of the building, for Crobidoll, anyway. I do remember that business at the top was still there. The security guard also seemed to be telling me that they weren't there anymore. I looked at all the other business names in the building, since I sometimes get mixed up with British floor numbering, but nothing was there. The building seemed half empty, actually.

      I see a different address for Crobidoll itself that points out into the suburbs, but I felt it was too far to go since I wasn't sure if that was their new storefront or just their office. I posted this literally two hours after I went to find it.

      But I still might have missed something, since my Korean is less than poor. Maybe someone should ask Crobidoll if they've moved? Maybe they just haven't updated their website with new info on their location.
       
    45. Thank you very much for this map! I will be going to Japan soon and I cannot wait to visit as many of these places as possible :D
       
    46. I am sad to say that the place where Paramita Tales (pt-love) and Heisejinyao (HZ) BJD were[FONT=arial, helvetica, sans-serif]in Shanghai, China has closed. I do not know if they have moved to a different location as all the signs for all the shops were in Chinese and sadly I can't read Chinese :([/FONT]
       
    47. An update for the BJD shops in Taipei:
      1) Wingmax is probably closed or at least the shop is not in the same area anymore, but since their website is almost non existent and hasn't been updated for years, I think they are closed.

      2) CotinDoll has moved from Xinmen to Nangang District.
      New address: No. 16, Lane 134, Kunyang St, Nangang District, Taipei City
      Phone: (+886) 2 2789 0779

      They are very easy to reach from Kunyang MRT station (blue line).
      Exit 4 --> cross the Zhongxiao East rd. -->
      [​IMG]

      --> go along the Kunyang street a few meters --> turn to the first small street on the right (currently opposite the Family Mart shop): 134 Line, Kunyang st. --> go along a bit further and CotinDoll shop is on the left side.
      [​IMG]

      They are open from 10am to 7pm and closed on Tuesdays.

       
    48. Hi - could I ask if anyone has an update for shops in Beijing or Hong Kong please?

      I think I saw that the Beijing locations may have closed. And there seem to be a lot of HK locations on the map, but again I'm not sure how up to date the information is or whether I will find them without speaking chinese.

      And the dollhearts website says they opened a shop in Causeway Bay in 2004, but don't have any more details on their website? Did this also close?
       
    49. I just found this store while looking for doll stuff on Ruten to ship to my aunt's or uncles' houses and I found La Blancheur 拉布蘭雪兒 and here's their FB La Blancheur & TWDP v Taiwan Dolls' Paradise | Facebook They are a physical shop located in Kaohsiung, Taiwan. You can find more info on their Facebook page as well as a map ^_^

      Edit: I have a double post? Please delete this post Moderators! I can't seem to do it ;A; Maybe I'm just a noob at this xD

    50. I just found this store while looking for doll stuff on Ruten to ship to my aunt's or uncles' houses and I found La Blancheur 拉布蘭雪兒 and here's their FB La Blancheur & TWDP v Taiwan Dolls' Paradise | Facebook They are a physical shop located in Kaohsiung, Taiwan. Their address is 高雄市新興區六合一路八十七號 You can find more info on their Facebook page as well as a map ^_^

      Edit! I found some blogs about them! Apparently they also sell food too, and it's like a cafe inside. The menu pricing is pretty reasonable (if NTD is converted to USD) and they sell sushi, japanese cuisine, as well as desserts like waffles

    53. Hello! Do you know if the list of stores in Bangkok, Kuala Lumpur and Singapore is updated? I just read in another forum that there are no BJD stores in Singapore now i will be traveling there in a couple months and I really want to visit BJD stores
       
    54. There are no physical stores in Singapore, sadly T_Tv
       
    55. Hi.
      Without contacting the shops directly ourselves, we are totally reliant upon community information to update the map.

      Are far as we know, alice88th is the only shop in Singapore which has previously sold dolls and doll accessories.
      Its website is working, and they still list dolls and accessories on their website.
      If you are unsure, please do email them or call them directly from your residence or hotel when arriving in country.


      If you know for certain that alice88th is no longer at the address of 15 Bali Lane, Singapore. Please inform us.
