Just as he’s about to plummet to his death, Fred and his family appear just in time to catch his grappling hook. Then Max gets behind Fred’s calf and starts pulling.]]

** An auto-extending/collapsing ladder to get atop the first house, and long-string footwear to get between houses
** A candy cane-shaped gizmo that serves as a magnet to seize the metallics, a net-shooter to bundle up presents, and a Batman-style grappling hook for easy chimney-climbing
** Star shuriken that somehow condense Christmas trees for transport
** Roller-systems that strip the Christmas lights right off the outsides of the houses

houses is the ''least'' of his gadgets. He also carries a candy cane-shaped gizmo that serves as a magnet to seize the metallics, anything metallic, a net-shooter to bundle up presents, and a Batman-style grappling hook for easy chimney-climbing
** Star shuriken
to ascend and descend down chimneys at high speed. Then he shows off specialized spinning bolas that somehow condense tie up entire Christmas trees for transport
** Roller-systems that
so tightly, he can just toss them straight up through the chimney. All of this together allows him to clean out an entire house in under a ''minute.'' And when he goes outside, his sleigh comes equipped with rollers to strip the Christmas lights right off of houses, and claws to snatch laurel wreathes off lamp-posts and doors.
** Before
the outsides of theft montage begins, Max has to visibly try his very best to pull an empty sleigh with just the housesGrinch in it. By the time they get to the last house, the stack of presents is as tall as the place they're attempting to rob, and Max is dragging the entire thing as if it's not even there.

* Cindy-Lou Who's trap for Santa is basically a BatmanGambit that would make Batman proud. The Grinch grabs the cookie, and it sets off the trap - and drags a noise-maker to tell Cindy-Lou it's gone off. He stumbles back in surprise... right into the ring of rope, just in time for the weight to drop and tighten it, dragging him up to the ceiling fan. He's struggling with it when Cindy-Lou gets to the living room and getting nowhere.

* The Grinch's Christmas-stealing montage is absolutely stunning. Like in the Creator/RonHoward version, the Grinch uses myriad gadgets in order to get the job done in one night. ''Un''like the Ron Howard version, however, it's not a mess of steampunk practicality, but a montage of VisualEffectsOfAwesome.
