Do you think the leaves look right, maybe these are not Tumbling Tom.

Here are pics of some of mine. They were transplanted maybe 3 weeks ago from nursery plants.

My tumbling toms spread out real wide and did not grow tall like yours Film- they were more like Queniden's. Perhaps your tomatoes are not actually tumbling toms? They could have been mislabeled or crossed seeds.
Also, maybe they grew tall due to lack of light? That is just speculation on my part. |

Maybe you should hang it outside, where it can get full sun.
