Bjarne: I searched for ball jointed dolls+groups on Yahoo and there are several groups as well. Check out: www.denofangels.com for lots of information on BJDs. U.S. Doll magazines Haute Doll and FDQ carry lots of info on BJD's as well.
She isn't exactly a BJD, but I started collecting(if two dolls is collecting}a multi-jointed doll called Momoko. She is 1/6 scale and 10 1/2" tall. A dainty 5'3" in comparison to Barbie's more substantial U.S. beef fed 5'9" in real scale. Originally Japanese made, she is now produced in China, which has cut her price 1/3 - 1/2 of the Japan Petworks dolls, and increased production numbers. Volks dolls in Japan is the Holy Grail of most BJD fans--you can have a doll custom made for about $700 and up in U.S. dolls. There is also a U.S. showroom and production center in California. Hope this helps!!
