From head to toe, Rino is just as cute as her sister.
Can’t you just imagine how fun it will be to have both the Lovely Snows Rino & Kano in your collection?
Let’s Chat
Do you like Rino’s 2nd appearance?
Will you add her to your collection?
Who do you like better, Rino or Kano?
I look forward to chatting with you.

Ok. So my Rino, In the wind doll just arrived. It is beautiful. The eyes are amazing on her. And Kano LS should arrive here in about three days if the mail works well and customs doesn’t take a day to look at my doll! Silly customs people, stop gawking at my doll!
And I have been looking at various photos of Rino LS on the web and the pictures of Kano LS and Rino LS holding hands pulls at my heart so bad. I know earlier I posted that I dislike her bear outfit hoodie.
I still do. Why that color Azone? What were you thinking?

But my icy snow heart is melting a bit. And I just don’t want to separate them and I am considering a pre-order for this doll as the sister? friend? of Kano Lovely Snows. (LS) It would be a shame to break up the pair as winter is vast approaching and I think they could keep each happy and warm.

Hi Dave,
So great to hear how lovely Rino is in person.
Oh, I can imagine how the sister’s pics can pull at your heart.
The only cure I’ve found for dollies pulling at the heartstrings is to give into them.
It’s pointless to fight ‘em. It only causes your heart more pain..
If you want to survive, it’s best to give into to the dolly demands (if you can).
In the end, the girls will be happy and warm & you’ll be happy seeing both of them in your collection 🙂

So, I pre-ordered her. Meh.
I won’t repeat my self about her hoodie. But at the end of November, Rino LS will be joining her sister here in my warm house.
It isn’t so much that I gave in. I would never.
Like I would ever? Meh. Me?
No. Never. I don’t ever! Dolls have no power over me. No, no, no!
I never give in to Dollie dreams or thoughts about seeing two pretty sisters holding hands and looking at me trying to silently say thank you as they are only dolls and cannot speak.
I mean. Meh? They are only dolls and they cannot speak. That is silly. I don’t give in to doll desires.
Maybe? Herms a bit. Maybe?

Ok.
Well, yes I did. but how could I not? They are sisters. And I want to pose them together and in my mind see them both happy in a warm house during winter as the lovely cold snow falls.
Azone is a horrible company I think. ? They should stop creating such pretty dollies. It is not my fault!
I mean, what type of person would deny two sisters looking for warmth as the snows arrive? Not me. I am not that type of person. I am a nice guy. I would never put a doll out in the snow. Gosh, that would be mean.
– Dave + “nice guy” = dollie collector.
PS: I am also rather silly. But I hope anyone that read my reply smiled. Joy is in the eye of the beholder. Perhaps not the one that looks at the one that beholds.
Hi Dave,
Azone knows exactly what they’re doing with their dolls.
They purposefully making them so darn cute because they know we can’t resist them.
I believe most doll collectors have had a similar dialogue like yours at least once on their dolly journey.
I don’t know how many times I’ve cursed Azone for their overly cute, irresistible dolls.
Tatyana
P.S. Your reply was quite entertaining (●^ｏ^●）
I love the eyes, hate the hoodie. The dress is very nice.
But I will pass on this one.

Hi Dave,
The dress is cute, it’s a style I think the girls from Azone’s Ellen series would look great in.
Thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts about Rino
Tatyana
Wow she is really cute…<3
Hi Sara,
Azone is doing a good job with their Iris Collect series. Let’s hope they can keep up the good work.
Thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts about Rino.
