1. It has come to the attention of forum staff that Dollshe Craft has ceased communications with dealers and customers, has failed to provide promised refunds for the excessive waits, and now has wait times surpassing 5 years in some cases. Forum staff are also concerned as there are claims being put forth that Dollshe plans to close down their doll making company. Due to the instability of the company, the lack of communication, the lack of promised refunds, and the wait times now surpassing 5 years, we strongly urge members to research the current state of this company very carefully and thoroughly before deciding to place an order. For more information please see the Dollshe waiting room. Do not assume this cannot happen to you or that your order will be different.

    2. Here's one that isn't a movie - but it isn't scary either:

      In the Korean drama 'hardtack teacher and sugar candy' one of the students owns a bjd and is in most of the episodes. :)

    3. I'm pretty sure that was a porcelain doll.

    4. If it's not porcelain it's definitely an artists one. Her body proportions aren't really like most BJDs.

    5. Well, I don't think it was porcelain, I can't remember her very well in the movie, but she IS meant to be a BJD, but I think it is an artist one due to, hey, movie budget, making one is probably cheaper than buying one from a name brand company.

    6. BJDs don't usually come with sound boxes. I have the movie and watch it regularly, it was a play doll for a little girl, it may have not been porcelain, but it wasn't a BJD. It was more of a baby doll than anything else.

    7. The movie is Japanese, not Korean; or at least, it takes place in Japan, and is directed by the same man that directed the Grudge and Grudge 2; Takashi Shimizu. I don't think a Japanese film-maker would make a Korean film in Japan.

      The movie is also very far from low budget; camera work and effects were very well done. The doll speaks, just like an American baby doll would. The only thing that could possibly classify it as a ball jointed doll is the scene in which it walks, at which point the doll is posessed.

    8. Some good movies mentioned here! Dollmaster, I love it. Seeing all those dolls makes me melt in a puddle of resin goodness.
      3 extremes I have wanted to see for ages and now even more. I love blood and gore and dolls. Cinderella, I will be finding too. Looks interesting.
      Death Note movie great! I will watch it, I have a vcd of it.

    9. I would love to know more movies that aren't horror that the dolls may be seen in >.< im never sitting through any of the horror ones even if it is to see a doll >.<

    10. I just noticed Reincarnation there I loved that film xD.

    11. It may not have been a brand bjd, but it was constructed like a bjd, ball and socket joints and strung from what I remember.

    13. That's awesome! I wanna see that movie! XD

      lol I wouldn't say those were bjds. They looked more like regular western babydolls. XD Ugly puffed cheeks and puckered lips like they'd been stung in the face by a few bees.

      Can we get this thread back on topic please?

      I don't know where you could just watch or download, sorry. I bought it and that's how I stumbled upon the whole BJD thing. You can buy it, however, at amazon.com.

    14. Another horror movie, but, Wishing Stairs has one of indeterminable(at least to me) origin.

    15. BJDs showed up in the anime Paprika; one of the characters was into them. It was sort of neat to see.

    16. Jade and I watched Reincarnation not even two weeks ago, making the film fresh in the mind.

      The doll is never once shown disassembled; it always has the same outfit on. So exactly what proof or "special" copy of the movie did you see where the doll is shown taken apart? The closest you see to the inside of the doll is when the eye is smashed in, and the eye still rests in the crater.

      I will admit that it did have joints; it had joints along the same line that a Barbie doll has joints. The arms and legs could move; but so can those on a $5.00 Spider Man action figure. Are those BJDs, according to your judgements?

      Just for clarification, the movie you're talking about is Reincarnation, or Rinne, right? http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0456630/

    17. My god, no need to get so snappy. My dolls never wear anything different and I've never taken them apart. You don't have to see a doll in pieces to know it's a BJD. Maybe I just misremembered, I saw the damn movie in November of 2006 in the theatre for Christ's sake.
      I mostly just recall thinking back then "OMG, BJD". Her face at the very least looks like a bjd's.
      I was just looking back over it on Youtube. Roughly 13 minutes into the film you can see a part where the little girl picks the doll up, you can see the jointed wrist and the arm bends at the elbow when she lifts it and it creaks like a resin doll, NOT a soft plastic baby doll. The facial sculpt is a bit odd and it's big for little kid proportions, but it IS a strung doll, you can tell if you look at the different signs.

    18. Alright, the arguing in this thread is off-topic, and furthermore we have discussed this point enough, so please. No more about it and let's move on to other movies that have BJDs in them, please.

      Also, NecrochildK, I mean no offence, but I'd apprieciate it if you wouldn't be so negative to the other people posting their findings, or opinions in this thread.

      That should go for everyone without saying, though.
