I have a 7-year old nephew in Switzerland and he LOVES legos. I know that they're available there, but he still likes getting them for gifts. I would forget about US candy. He has developed a different taste for candy than my kids (no wonder) and does not enjoy US candy. Also, the Spiderman action figure suggestion was a good one. You might also consider some little gadgety toy like the little "finger skateboards".

I agree no USA candy, it is pitiful compared to Swiss candy. Action toys or little cars would be my choice.
