Apparently, Super7 had to do some layoffs due to tariffs.

 Damn, that sucks for the employees who got laid off. This is a rather depressing story. I hope that those employees laid off can bounce back rather quickly, so their families can ensure food on their tables.

I am rather disappointed on people who are celebrating this. I get it, Super7 product is overpriced, QC is hit or miss, The delays are insane, the excuses to justify their status are way over the top... I get it. Toss in the weird shipping prices issues to Puerto Rico and their sudden refusal to allow PayPal pay in 4 to the mix. But all the complaints and blunders doesn't justify celebrating people getting fired. Today is Super7 tomorrow it could be you, or me, or someone close to you, or someone close to me.

My biggest fear is that other smaller toy companies may feel the pressure. Syndicate, NECA, Nacelle, The Loyal Subjects, etc. 

I know that words of encouragement are pointless when people are going through bad situations, but once again, I hope the laid off folks can recover so they can keep their families afloat.
