The product line will include trading cards (both signed and unsigned), gold embossed cards, a series of lithographs, wall scrolls and collectible lunch boxes that include special edition trading cards inside. Custom designed, limited edition binders will also be offered with an exclusive free bonus surprise tucked inside.

"We are very excited to be involved with this holiday's highly anticipated release of Dr. Seuss' How the Grinch Stole Christmas," said Nick Barrucci, president, Dynamic Forces. "Our goal is to create an original collectible program and unique trading card line which will be available at all channels of retail distribution including mass market and specialty stores including comic and collectible shops."

The delightfully off-kilter world of Dr. Seuss' How The Grinch Stole Christmas comes to spectacular life on the big screen from Universal Pictures and Imagine Entertainment. Director Ron Howard (Apollo 13) and producer Brian Grazer (The Nutty Professor) create a hilarious and charming new live-action comedy fantasy starring Jim Carrey as The Grinch.

Aided by a stellar team including the artistry of Academy Award-winning special make-up effects designer Rick Baker, production designer Michael Corenblith and costume designer Rita Ryack, Dr. Seuss' How The Grinch Stole Christmas brilliantly re-creates the magical town of Whoville and its unique inhabitants. The film also stars Molly Shannon, Christine Baranski, Taylor Momsen, Jeffrey Tambor and Bill Irwin.
