OYO: Acton Company Doing Big Business Making Little Plastic People


Thursday July 31, 2014

ACTON (CBS) � In a nondescript brick building on Main Street in Acton, there�s a factory making people.
The walls are covered with towering tubs of torsos.
There�s nothing sinister here. They�re little plastic people called OYOs.
�We are producing lots of little dudes� says OYO marketing director Mike Ewing.
The �dudes� are like LEGOs, only with star athlete names and movable arms.
They�re the brain children of OYO founder Tom Skripps. He used to design medical devices. Then at a Red Sox game with his son, he got an idea.
�Fourth inning of the game, he�s done. He loves LEGOs. He wants to buy a toy and there are no toys to buy and I say �I have to make LEGO mini figures for sports.�
