I'd like to give a shout out to the "Face that $ells the Place".... Tom!
As the man thats pretty much the face of Ringside when in comes to the Q&A and promoting the figures. I think he needs his own praise here. Especially since he's graced us with his return to Ringside, from his first run with the company.
So I thought it would be cool for us fans to ask Tom questions. About him, his experience with certain wrestler or personality he's met ect ect.

So no questions for Tom???
I'll go first then.
Which figures would you say are your favorites in your collection?

Tom - Besides ringside exclusives…Are there any figures that were made that you believe were made due to your own personal suggestion?

For Tom (who’s great, by the way) - In all of your years working for Ringside, what’s been the hardest/toughest sell for you? Meaning, a crap figure that you know was crap but you still had to convince the viewers that it was crap worth owning.

Because I see and am around so, so many figures my tastes can change. Some that I have found to be still awesome over the years: - Elite Viscera - yellow and black Deluxe Aggression Rey Mysterio - Elite 'Conspiracy' R-Truth - Elite nWo X-Pac - pretty much any Stone Cold with the grumbly headsculpt I have to shift things in and out though so I don't get sick of looking at them. Also SDCC Mr. T! |

Loved RSCTom on the figure insider videos on Youtube back in the Classic Superstars days. Tom, can I ask, what happened to the Classic 1/100 Sunny that you opened? Did someone from Ringside end up getting it or did it actually get sold loose? Just a curious memory of me watching it and wondering where it ended up. |

Without pulling the curtain back too much, we have a great relationship with Mattel and while our conversations are more geared towards what we cook up together for exclusives, I have casually made some suggestions. I would say we are all in the same mental wavelength as wrestling fans, though, so anything Attitude/RA/Reality Era, which are my favorite wrestling eras pretty much represent what I would like to see. I am not as knowledgeable on golden era stuff. Mattel are great listeners! |
