We’re admittedly behind in our coverage of the impact of President Donald Trump’s tariffs on the comic/toy/game industry but we’ll catch up, starting with Super7.
The company has announced that it has started an 8% surcharge to all non-apparel items.
Super7 features a lot of lines and properties including the popular ReAction line of figures.
To put it in perspective, a $20 figure would have an extra $1.60 added to its price.
While the current prices listed on the site (as of this article) don’t reflect the price increase, when we looked in our cart, the price increase was present.
You can reader Super7’s full announcement below.
Dear Super7 Community,
We want to share an important update about how recent changes in global trade and import tariffs are affecting us.
Starting today, April 24th, an 8% surcharge will be added to all non-apparel items.
We didn’t come to this decision lightly. For as long as possible, we’ve worked to absorb these rising costs ourselves—without passing them along to you. Unfortunately, the scale of these increases has made it unsustainable for us to continue doing so entirely. Even with this surcharge, it still doesn’t cover the full impact we’re facing.
We’re doing everything we can behind the scenes to minimize the effect on our community. If conditions change or a better solution becomes available, we’ll reevaluate this surcharge immediately.
Super7 has always been about more than just toys—it’s about the people who collect them. We’ll keep you updated every step of the way, and we sincerely appreciate your understanding and continued support during this time.
Sincerely,
Team Super7
