The '''''Super Mario Bros.'' Trading Cards''' were a series of collectible trading cards based on the 1993 [[Super Mario Bros. (film)|''Super Mario Bros.'' film]]. They were released over the summer and winter of 1993, with a total of 101 regular cards and 3 hologram ones. The summer release cards have yellow text, while the winter release has a light blue text. The summer release was produced by the now defunct {{wp|SkyBox International}}, while the winter release was released by defunct Australian company Dynamic Marketing. The cards feature high quality images, both screen caps from the film itself and some behind the scenes photographs. 

Some of the cards feature content cut from the final film. There is a deleted scene where [[Spike (film character)|Spike]] and [[Iggy (film character)|Iggy]] rap at the [[Boom Boom Bar]] that receives its own card. Two deleted scene cards involve [[Mario (film character)|Mario]] and [[Luigi (film character)|Luigi]] arguing with Mike and Doug of [[Scapelli Construction]] regarding how long a job at the Riverfront Cafe would take. [[Toad (film character)|Toad]]'s hologram card erroneously calls him "Lemmy" on the front, though it is corrected on the back. This is due to Toad being named Lemmy in earlier drafts of the film.
