I’m so excited for these and plan on picking up both of them! I’ve only been collecting Azone dolls for about a year so I’ve been dying for these two to get another release. They’re a bit basic, but I think they’re still really charming in spite of that.
Hi Court,
Welcome to the fun & wonderful world of collecting Azone dolls!
That’s the thing about Azone: even their simpler lines are so cute and hard to pass up.😆
Thanks so much for taking the time to comment!
Once they arrive, I’d love to hear what you think of them.
Have a great week,
Tatyana
