Trump Tariffs Affect Good Smile Company Nendoroids, Figures
Good Smile Company announced how the tariffs enacted by President Donald Trump affect Nendoroids, figmas, figures, and other pieces of video game and anime merchandise. It won’t take pre-orders for upcoming items, is delayed shipments for in-progress pre-orders, increased prices on its storefront, and items won’t be tax exempt under the de minimis tax exemption system, according to messages on the US and Japanese sites. The announcement on the Japanese site ended up being a little more detailed, with more exact dates for the changes and locations. It noted this applies to the US, American Samoa, Guam, Northern Mariana Islands, Puerto Rico, and the US Virgin Islands. If a product is already in-stock, it can be purchased. However, it might cost more now. Starting immediately, pre-orders are closed to folks in those regions and shipments to the US are delayed. On the Japanese site, it specifically stated this runs April 24, 2025 through May 14, 2025. On the US one, there’s no end-date. In terms of the possible tariffs being applied and other price changes, that varies. The US site said prices already changed. It also promised to alter that if situations change. The Japanese site said the tariffs starting at 145% are expected to start “on or after May 2, 2025.” It also noted that since the de minimis tax exemption will start, that means the order will be taxed even if is under $800. The site also said those who order items in the US need to pay the tariffs through customs or the company (such as FedEx, UPS, or DHL) that delivers them. Good Smile Company game and anime Nendoroids, figures, figmas, and merchandise aren’t the only products being hit by the Trump tariffs. Square Enix halted pre-orders from its official US storefront. Switch 2 pre-orders ended up delayed, and some of the peripherals, accessories, and amiibo prices changed as a result. Good Smile Company pre-orders for its anime and game Nendoroids, figures, figmas, and merchandise headed to the US and its territories are now stopped and existing pre-orders and shipments are delayed as a result of the Trump Tariffs.
