Good question, but (to an extent) you are talking chalk and cheese.
The Mad Mouse has a character of its own (style of cars, and track, and the age of the design)
The SDC / Pinfari Galaxy is more of a 'rollecoaster' and the main reason it's so common is due to its compact footprint versus length of track. As far as your run-of-the-mill portable coaster goes, the Galaxy will always be the world's most successful design. (in the 20th century)
The Galaxy being taller and larger, certainly looks more dominant to a ground-level Wild / Mad Maus. My preference, however, is to the Mad Mouse, mainly due to the fact I worked on a Galaxy for 5 years, and unconsciously have memorized every single section of track. A Mad Mouse on the other hand (particularly a well-run one like the one at Aussie World) has more of a novelty value to me, as a rider.
So that's where my vote goes.
