                   REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
                   ---------------------------------




June 13, 1995



To the Plan Administrator and Participants
 of the Mattel, Inc. Personal Investment Plan


In our opinion, the accompanying statements of net assets available for
benefits with fund information and the related statements of changes in net
assets available for benefits with fund information present fairly, in all
material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Mattel,
Inc. Personal Investment Plan at December 31, 1994 and 1993, and the
changes in net assets available for benefits for the years then ended, in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.  These financial
statements are the responsibility of the plan's management; our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based
on our audits.  We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance
with generally accepted auditing standards which require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
financial statements are free of material misstatement.  An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures
in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.

Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole.  The additional information included
in Schedules I and V is presented for purposes of additional analysis and
is not a required part of the basic financial statements but is additional
information required by ERISA.  Such information has been subjected to the
auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements
and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation
to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

                        NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                        -----------------------------


NOTE 1 - GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN:
- ----------------------------------------

The following description of the Mattel, Inc. (the "Company") Personal
Investment Plan (the "Plan") provides only general information.
Participants should refer to the Plan agreement for a more complete
description of the Plan's provisions.


General
- -------

Established November 1, 1983, the Plan is a contributory thrift savings
form of a defined contribution plan covering all nonunion employees of the
Company and certain subsidiaries of Mattel, Inc.  The Plan is administered
by the Company under the direction of the Pension Committee of the Board of
Directors of the Company.  Plan assets at December 31, 1994 were held by
The Northern Trust Company (the "Trustee") under the direction of the
Pension Committee.  Plan assets at December 31, 1993 and until May 30, 1994
were held by the Bank of America, N.T.S.A.  Effective May 31, 1994, plan
assets were transferred to The Northern Trust Company.  There were
approximately 2,704 participants in the Plan as of December 31, 1994.

In 1989, the Plan was amended retroactive to January 1, 1987 in order to
comply with rules and regulations set forth in the Tax Reform Act of 1986.
In August 1992, the Plan was amended to provide to participants the option
to invest in Mattel common stock as a fourth investment alternative.
Effective in January 1993, the Plan was amended and restated to reflect
technical provisions as required by the Unemployment Compensation
Amendments of 1992 to the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 relating to direct
rollovers between qualified plans and mandatory withholding rules, and to
adjust the provisions relating to the voting of stock in the Mattel stock
fund.  There were no changes or amendments made to the Plan during the
current year.


Contributions
- -------------

The Company makes automatic contributions ranging from 2 percent to 7
percent of compensation based upon covered participants' ages, regardless
of whether the employees elect to personally contribute to the Plan.  Each
employee may contribute from 1 percent to 6 percent of his or her
compensation.  The Company will match 100 percent of the first 2 percent of
compensation contributed by an employee and 50 percent of the next 4
percent.  In addition, each employee may contribute up to an additional 9
percent of compensation, with no matching contribution by the Company.
Participants are permitted to direct all contributions made to the Plan
into one or more of four separate investment funds: a fixed income account,
a managed equity account, an equity index account and the Mattel stock
account.  Participants may change their investment options twice each
quarter.


                                 -6-


NOTE 1:  (Continued)
- ------


Vesting
- -------

Each participant hired prior to July 1, 1989 has a 100 percent vested
interest in all contributions and earnings in his or her account, including
the Company's matching contributions.  Each participant hired after July 1,
1989 is immediately vested in their contributions plus actual earnings
thereon.  Vesting in the Company's matching and discretionary contribution
portion of the participant's account plus actual earnings thereon is based
on years of continuous service.  Participants become 25% vested after two
years of credited service and vest an additional 25% for each additional
year of service through the fifth year at which time 100% vesting occurs.


Participant Loans Receivable
- ----------------------------

Participants may borrow from their accounts from a minimum of $2,000 to a
maximum equal to the lesser of $50,000 or 50% of their vested account
balance.  Loan terms range from 1-5 years or up to 15 years for the
purchase of a primary residence.  The loans are secured by the balance in
the participant's account and bear interest at the Prime Rate plus one
percent set at the beginning of the month in which the loan is granted.
The interest rate is set for the duration of the loan.  As of December 31,
1994, interest rates on loans outstanding ranged from 7 percent to 11
percent.  Principal and interest are paid ratably through payroll
deductions.  In addition, funds may be withdrawn by participants prior to
retirement under limited circumstances, subject to restrictions as defined
by the Plan.


Participant Accounts
- --------------------

Each participant's account is credited with the participant's contribution
and allocations of (a) the Company's contribution and (b) Plan earnings.
Allocations are made based on the fund allocation percentages used for the
employees' contributions.  Forfeited balances of terminated participants'
nonvested accounts are used to reduce future Company contributions.  The
benefit to which a participant is entitled is the benefit that can be
provided from the participant's vested account.


Payment of Benefits
- -------------------

Upon termination of service due to death, disability, retirement or other
reasons, a participant or beneficiary may receive a lump-sum amount equal
to the value of the participant's vested interest in his or her account.
Participants automatically become 100% vested in their account balance if
their termination is due to total disability or retirement.


Expenses of the Plan
- --------------------

Expenses incurred in the administration of the Plan are paid by the
Company.


                                 -7-


NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
- ----------------------------------------------------

Basis of Accounting
- -------------------

The financial statements of the Plan are prepared using the accrual basis
of accounting.


Valuation of Investments
- ------------------------

Investments are presented in the accompanying statement of net assets
available for benefits at their fair value.  Investments held in the
managed equity fund, equity index fund and Mattel stock fund are valued
using quoted market prices.  Investments in the fixed income fund, made
primarily pursuant to guaranteed investment contracts, are valued at
contract values as determined by the insurance companies.  Contract value
represents contributions made under a guaranteed investment contract, plus
interest at the contract rate, less administration expenses charged by the
insurance company.  Participant loans receivable are valued at cost which
approximates fair value.


Contributions
- -------------

Contributions from Plan participants are recorded in the period in which
the Company makes payroll deductions from the employees' compensation.  The
Company's matching contributions are recorded in the period corresponding
with the employee contributions.  Employee rollover contributions are
included as Employee Contributions in the financial statements.


Income Recognition
- ------------------

In accordance with the policy of presenting investments at current fair
value, the net appreciation or depreciation in the fair value of
investments during the period is reflected in the statement of changes in
net assets available for benefits.  Such net appreciation or depreciation
in current fair value includes realized gains and losses on dispositions of
securities during the period.  Security transactions are recorded on a
trade date basis.  Interest income is recorded as earned on an accrual
basis.  Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date.


Payment of Benefits
- -------------------

Benefits payable to former employees are recorded in the period in which
payment occurs.


Reclassifications
- -----------------

Certain reclassifications have been made to conform prior period amounts to
current year presentation.
