I always enjoy watching the videos, listening to the answers from questions right from WFigs and the little bit of info. we do get from the manufacturer. But something struck me today as watching some of these and perhaps I failed to see it before and only picked up on it today.....RSC Tom seems to call it like it is. Dude, has an opinion and isnt afraid to share it. Of course he doesnt come out and just start acting like a horse's ass.....this is still a professional business. But the guy has his favorites and the guys he doesnt like and isnt afraid to say so. He likes certain lines and doesnt others and is willing to express that. Not to mention the fact that he always seems to be knowledgeable about the products and is quick to respond to board members questions. I figured with the usual negativity that seems to get steam behind it......someone should be recognized in a positive aspect. Tom called the Mattel rep. to the carpet about "Michael Traver" and was willing to express his opinion, in a respectful manner, without fear of ridicule. Here's to RSC Tom. I raise my glass of "not beer" to you.

I always enjoy Tom's videos. He's the Cena.
Who was it that said the Michael Trevor thing? Was it off-camera?

Tom's a legit cool dude. Nothing against RSC but the other one that's like an "admin" or something on here just comes off as a robot. I don't mean that as an insult, I'm just saying.
Tom's a funny dude and a cool guy, plus he actually posts/contributes all over the board, not just RSC related stuff.

Tom is the sh!z. I enjoy his videos alot. He does great with them and he doesn't care to tell it like it is, like you said.
I said earlier, he needs to do a Figure Insider of the Ringside Warehouse/building and let us see that place! I bet it's amazing!

tom is pretty cool. i like his insider videos and often wish he would do a second set of videos where he gave his opinions on the figures. the ones i always see is him just saying wat the figure has and stuff like that (not that its a bad thing. definitely useful). its just those videos dont give me an idea on weather or not to buy a figure im on the fence on. if he did an additional set of videos where he gave his likes and dislikes on a figure id be really happy. plus i wish i had his job lol.

Cringed when that mattel rep was talking about the mattel line. You could see he was not comfortable nor knew what he was saying or talking about.

i dont know either personally, but from my POV tim ash is an untrained dork w/ no confidence and no valuable skills for this profession.. too many examples to point out.. maybe one : Asks the Q to mr mattel (who knows as much as a cardboard box ) WILL the ALL STARS have more packs and WHERE WILL they BE SOLD ? " simple.. yet T.Ash let the jobber bloviate and never answered the eazy part - WHERE? do i think i could do better? yes i know i could. but i dont think the gig would pay enough. Yes Ringside TOM is ooooozing machismo, uber confident ( even if his burns scare children) and he has Natural talent that cannot be taught, practiced, or paid 4... ps. i come from a business where its better to say this, then hopefully mr.ash can try to just be more "himself" or drop the mic and work that proverbial gorilla position while TOM BRINGS IT. IT. even Michael Trever knows that Tom has it. Get it?
btw CheckOut RingSide Collectibles right now YOU can purchase the Man who will ELECTRIFY us all.... no not TOM THE ROCK. but the video shows TOM holding the Rock .. is that a sign.. does this signal to the figs powers that be that TOM can carry the ROCK.. more on that in my next rant from this hater.
PPS. who would want a contest where you could go figure hunting in a rundown walmart with TOM?... as long as TOM brings an corp. AMEX w/ " JOHN HAL " on the front then we can buy all the MARCUS TREAVOR MURCHDOCH JUNIORS in the new LEGENDS SERIES 2 two-packs who else is in that series again tim ash?

Cringed when that mattel rep was talking about the mattel line. You could see he was not comfortable nor knew what he was saying or talking about. I'm sorry he was a rep? We got videos with someone on the design team, the other guy was talking about all of the other lines plus WWE, and doing it from a sheet. Mistakes happen. As far as Tom goes, I love his videos, but wish he went deeper since most YouTube "reviews" don't go in depth at all, and are generally poorly filmed. With the amount of product he does, I understand that he can't. Their camera and lighting is flat out awesome though.

He said on the video that he is not a big mattel fan. So from now on he will get nothing but heat and be persona non grata on wfigs... PS: As you can read below...

i couldnt sleep last night.. TOM please help me FIND out some info : Where and When will the ROCKERS 2 pack be released? or will it be a Legends series 7 or 8.... come on TOM, when the camera is off, tighten up that tie (if u own one) and have your secretary (who is 16yrs old & smokin HOT ) call Mattel & Get RINGSIDE COLLECTIBLES some I.E.'s..... EYE EEEEEEssss i tell you! i can just picture using my debit card to buy the 1 of 50 employee exclusive Michael Trevor w/ Towel EPiC
THE ROCK is BACK!~ use code ROCK to get 10% off any order! wow ROCK has been back not even a week and he has electrifyied RINGSIDE COLLECTIBLES more than tim ash... great memories from 1998 when my mommy would read those credit card numbers over the phone to JON and get two full sets of the new BCA's... he was so patient and friendly.. he obviously didnt train tim ash... i wonder if TOM's last name is HAL... hmm either way TOM HAS it even tammy "sunny" agrees!

Yeah it was nice to see a couple of dudes share their opinion's about the product in video form. I wouldn't mind seeing more of this. It would be far more entertaining than the figure insider. I'd like to see them scrutinize each line as they come in on video. It could really stimulate discussion.
