27 cm BJD Dolls question
 

I'm interested in building Ball Jointed Dolls but the 60 cm ones are too
expensive for now so I'd like to start with the 27 cm one.

Could someone recommend me a good store where I could get eye balls, wigs,
clothes and bodies. I already know a few place where I could get the bodies
but I'm not sure about the rest.

Any advice and help would be apreciated.

Thanks

It would help to know where you are. Not much point posting about UK
sources if you're in the US and vice versa.....

Ah, well I'm UK, but....

Try googling for Linda Plaskett. She tends to major on ceramic dolls, but
has a wide range of bits and pieces, including Eyeco eyes, which are
unbelievably realistic! Not sure if they can be used with the type of doll
you're looking at.

I've found her extremely helpful, and have ordered several unfinished
porcelain dolls. They've arrived here from the US well packaged and no
breakages to date! I appreciate you're looking at BJDs, but the quality,
the finish of her porcelain is excellent. These days I wouldn't consider
ordering anywhere else.

For wigs, google for G. Bravot, the company's in France, but they do mail
order. They do both synthetic and human hair wigs. I go for HH wigs, which
are superb. Oh, and they do have an English speaker. :-)

Thank you for taking the time to answer me. I'll go check these sites right
away!

That's great because my japanese isn't very good. :-D

Personally I always recommend talking to Emory at Junky Spot.
Great customer service and he knows what he's talking about.
There's also a really great forum there filled with likeminded people.

Hope that helps.
