I get giddy scrolling through storefronts and seeing Tom plastered on everything from controllers to cereal boxes. This year the big winners are apparel drops and collabs — think capsule hoodies, tees with retro graphics, and even enamel pins that riff on classic slapstick poses from 'Tom and Jerry'. Streetwear collabs have made Tom feel fresh again, so younger fans pick up limited tees while older fans snag vintage-style prints.
Another area exploding in 2025 is small, everyday accessories: phone cases, stickers, keychains, and tote bags. Those are affordable
Impulse buys and they’re everywhere — online indie shops, convention booths, and mainstream retailers. Vinyl figures and blind-box collectibles are still hot; you can find cute gacha-style Tom minis that are perfect for desks or as trading items. I’ve noticed gaming-adjacent merch too: themed controller skins, mousepads, and console faceplates featuring Tom’s exaggerated expressions.
On the secondary market, pins and limited-run figures command surprising prices. Independent artists have also been doing reinterpretations — more stylized Tom art prints, crossovers with other pop culture icons, and handmade plushes on marketplace platforms. For me, the accessibility of so many smaller, affordable items means I can collect a bunch of different Tom pieces without breaking the bank, which keeps the hobby joyful and casual.
