    I got an email from one of my distributors two days ago, all hasbro toys are expected to go up at least 50% starting in July. No word on their board games yet.

        To be fair, I’m surprised as a parent how cheap most kids toys are. They are a similar price to when I was a child. Obviously, that’s due to cheap labour and globalisation, but I don’t think it’s going to kill Christmas. I’d be much more worried about human rights than inflation.

          Tariffs are going to increase prices far faster than inflation.

            Increased prices is inflation. So, yes, I expect them to rise, probably by quite a bit, but I don’t think hyperbole about killing Christmas is helpful.
