Because ringside is the absolute premium partner and retailer for Mattel. I dont think amazon or target cares what they made with their exclusives but i think ringside would care if their exclusives would be 1:1 rereleased. But thats only my opinion RSC may be a valued partner but they’re 1 shop in 1 location with 1 warehouse vs Amazon, Target, and Walmart who have thousands of locations and hundreds of warehouses. I wouldn’t necessarily define them as their premiere partner. RSC needs Mattel more than Mattel needs RSC. Yes you maybe right but the difference is the exclusives from ringside have a sticker on it. The figures from the other retailers not. So in my opinion it would be a joke if a ringside exclusive figure would get a rerelease.

Can anyone provide a year for the Bam Bam attire? It was during his face run after splitting from the Million Dollar Corporation

It was during his face run after splitting from the Million Dollar Corporation Wild...I was an avid WWF fan at that time; this is a big blind spot for me. He must have left the company shortly after this, I don't remember anything Bam Bam related post-WMXI.

I was in and out of my viewing that time but remember him teaming with Diesel for an IYH main event against what I’m assuming would be a pair from the M$C (Sid and Tatanka??)

Super important looks should be locked behind a sticker forever. I’ll go even farther and say that if Jakks covered an attire during their run, it should be off limits to Mattel. They should think about the Jakks collectors longterm value.

But, after helping Diesel, and facing Tatanka and Sid at one of the IYH's or KOTR95, he didn't do much. He did face Goldust at the Survivor Series in his last match.

To further drive this point home, only like 1500 of the Cardona MWFP figures were produced and it was #1 on the weekly sales list while not even completely selling out.

He did face Goldust at the Survivor Series in his last match. He also wore the gear occasionally throughout his ECW and WCW runs. Definitely not the most iconic for those years, but it's an option for anybody who couldn't get the most recent Legends figure.

I still want a purple Bam Bam though. I’ll take any WCW Bam Bam besides the attire he wore when teaming up with DDP.

Ah, interesting... so his Legends 5/Greatest Hits figure could also pass as an ECW figure/look? (I'm not that keen on his grey ECW gear...).

The Bam Bam figure represents King of the Ring 1995. That’s the complete look with the entrance gear and arm things. He wore the same gear at Survivor Series 1995 with no arm things and IYH 4 with no entrance gear
Living Dangerously 1998 when he beat Taz for the ECW TV Title
He also wore it on Raw, Superstars, Nitro, Thunder and Hardcore TV as well as house shows, WAR shows and ECW Supercards but those listed are the only times on PPV
