Unlike his indoor counterpart, this 4ft Grinch is extremely hard to find, which makes it hard to locate information about him. The retail price was likely around the same as the indoor version, but I can't confirm that for sure. Differences between this and the indoor version: the indoor version has textured white trim, whereas this one is flat. The indoor version has no lights and no stake holders, this has lights and two stake holders on his hips. For the box, the indoor version will say "Plugs into standard outlet", and the outdoor version will say "Lights up." Like the other inflatables released from 2001-2008, this is based on the live action film rather than the book. Ones based on the book would come in 2017.
