Unique Collectible BJD Doll Features

By Paulette Mason


For centuries, people have enjoyed playing with, or collecting figurines that emulate the human form. There are many types of these products, from the childhood toy to the lifelike and articulated manikins. The BJD doll is perhaps one of the most intriguing, unique and versatile styles of this collectible art.

There are many key features that make these dolls quite different from other styles available. The uniqueness starts with the very thing for which they are named, their ball jointed articulation points. These are the very reason the manikins can be more realistically posed in natural human positions for more interesting displays.

Most of these figurines will have articulation at key points such as the neck, shoulders, elbows, wrists, hips, knees, ankles and possibly at the waist as well. This type of set up allows them to be posed easily into natural human positions and to move smoothly. Sturdy electric cording is what holds everything together and permits the lifelike actions.

Another thing that makes them so desired is their unique look. Produced primarily in South Korea, Japan and China, this type of figurine has been described as an homage to realistic movement with a heavy anime' influence in the facial features. They are stunningly beautiful and generally intended to be owned by adult collectors instead of used as playthings for small children.

Though a small portion of these types of products are made with plastic or in vinyl, the majority are produced in resin which is harder, stronger and considerably more dense. Beginning at around one hundred dollars, these figures are typically a bit more expensive than other types and have been known to exceed $1200. The average cost for a completed item is usually in the vicinity of six hundred dollars.

The ability to customize each piece is one of the many things that draw dedicated collectors to this style of figurine. Almost every aspect of these dolls can be individually selected, optimizing the personalization experience. The customer can choose all the details from skin tone, body type and age while purchasing parts like heads, eyes, hair, hands, feet, clothing and accessories separately to build their perfect manikin.

Size is another area where these products have a wide variety of choices. The smallest options, commonly known as Pocket Fairies, stand roughly four inches high and though they are undeniably adorable, their facial features have a limited amount of detail. At the other end of the spectrum are the incredibly detailed manikins that stand and impressive 27.5" tall.

Perhaps the thing that makes these products truly unique and unlike most other items in the field, is their ability to represent the many phases of human life, from a toddling child to an aged adult. While some are made gender neutral, particularly those emulating young children, they are usually created to be anatomically correct and accurately age specific. Several styles of breastplates are available in order to allow the collector to achieve the most realistic results.
