As has been alluded to here, we wouldn't just be paying more for the costs of workers wages, but for Corporate greed and environmental restrictions. And as Primacron says above - we already pay much much more in Europe than the US - minimum 50% more, and with no sales to ever get decent deals (those images we see of Walmart and Target with things discounted so low as to be basically free...) If they hiked the price anymore they might as well make toys out of gold and we could use them as currency.

Uh no... this is The United States of America... they’d be made by low skill immigrants and single mothers with deadbeat baby daddies.

Damned insult. The single moms would be on welfare not slumming in a factory.

Ironically enough Action Figures are Multi-National. Where I work sends the Plastic we use to wrap Pallets of Groceries to Canada, In Canada it's Refined and sent to China and Vietnam where it's turned into other stuff.

Canada, Vietnam - it's all basically owned by China. And China has long been using other Asian nations to get around trade blocks - they make it in China then send it to Vietnam where it gets assembled and a 'made in Vietnam' label added.
