No contest. The Sylvanian Familes own.

I had both, and at the end of the day you couldn't tell their fuzzy bodies apart in the magic treehouse.

What the hokey is Maple Town?

Sylvanian Families, anyway. All that forest green furniture was CLASSY. And they had lederhosen! And Bernard Cribbins! (Possibly only a UK connection there.)

eight years pass...

The entire franchise is set in Sylvania (シルバニア Shirubania?), a fictional village based on 1970 Great Britain.

This is from the Sylvanian Families wiki page. I had not realised that the line was based on 1970 Great Britain. There is no citation for this claim, 1970 seems oddly specific, has anyone else heard anything about this?
