I think they do. But I think with container limitations, the Joes always get sidelined by Disney properties and their contractual obligations - which I suspect has been the reason for all the huge product dumps since the pandemic.

I'm really hoping they try and maybe ship from the UK or somewhere where they can not get whacked so hard. These are such great figures and it sucks if we have to see a big delay beyond the usual length it takes to get these waves in our hands.

Was really looking forward to Season 3 Part 1.

The tariffs are determined by country of origin. So anything made in China, irregardless of where it's shipped from, will get hit.

Gotta wonder how they can even account for every last package and parcel with all the stuff coming into the country.

Although I guess that's the point - less stuff comes in so it's easier to spot the Made in China stuff to tariff to hell.

They spot check, opening containers, cases, and boxes. No doubt there're some who're running the gambit. But I'd hate to be the business receiving a container shipped from Vietnam with majorly Vietnam-produced product and the entire container gets confiscated because less than 10% in the container had products made in China that were shipped to Vietnam for transit to the US to bypass tariffs. That'd also leave you potentially facing Federal charges.

Was looking forward to General Brown arriving soon. Those optional heads will make a nice, young General Flagg or Joe Colton.

But better to wait things out a bit. Just bad timing until things work out.
