Mattel
I have the PM version, and in my opinion the Mattel version pales in comparison. The fabric is thinner and to me feels more cheaply made, it's not as thick as the PM version. It's smooth felt; not scratchy, just thinner. But it's a toy, and unless I could get the older version for a price close to the Mattel verison, I would buy the Mattel one. But it's all a matter of what you prefer and what's important to you. I would never pay high prices for an older version of an item that is currently being sold, regardless of quality differences!
