MINDstyle’s Two Faced Hazel Asia Edition and Chase Blue Mini

MINDstyle has released the Two-Faced Hazel Asia edition by Kathie Olivas. It’s available at numerous retailers in Asia. Within the USA, it’s available exclusively from Gunnzo in SD. Limited to 500 pieces, the Asia Exclusive is likely to continue Kathie’s extremely brisk sales. Especially considering that MINDstyle and Kathie are celebrating Chinese New Year by releasing the Blue 3” Hazel as a free randomly packed-in chase with the 9” Asia edition. Hazel in all her forms, especially the 3”, is in extremely high-demand. So this very sweet bonus is bound to drive frenetic action by serious collectors.
