I had never realized what a difference there was between the Mattel and PM Samanthas until I read this board! But now I would love a PM Samantha. Of course, my 2004 Sam would always be Samantha with her beautiful dark brown hair, but the PM Samantha is beautiful in her own way and I would probably make her Lily, my Sam and Marie's friend. Anyone have pics of both of them up close or next to each other that I could look at? Which one did you get first, Mattel or PM?
