The wall of lunchboxes...

[palitoy]

I never had anything but the plastic kind.

The first I remember is a hand me down box from my sister The Partridge Family. From there I got my own with a Kung Fu lunchbox and thermos and the last I remember was a Marvel Superheroes lunchbox and thermos.

I remember having a Disney one in kindergarten. I also seem to recall a metal Scooby Doo, a plastic Scooby Doo (green) and a Dynomutt/Blue Falcon.

My favorite (and the only one I really remember having) was the Wile E. Coyote and Roadrunner lunchbox. Loved it...someday I will have another.

I must have gone through dozens of metal lunchboxes during my childhood...I was kinda of a klutz, I think my very favorite was a Banana Splits one, I also loved the Hanna Barbera themed ones too. As a little kid, I wasn't too much into superheroes or even Looney Tunes...I loved the Banana Splits and Hanna Barbera lunchboxes the best.

I would LOVE to eventually get me at least one metal one...but not Banana Splits or Hanna Barbera...I want a Superman one, lol.

My brother and I had the Disney bus dome, Lidsville and Pebbles/Bamm Bamm show.

I now have the 66 Batman, Super Friends, DC Super Heroes and the Marvel Super Heroes. I also have the mini replicas of Star Trek and the DC heroes that came out a while back.

The only lunch box I had was a Man from Uncle that was handed down to me.  It was pretty cool no theros.I still have a dent in the back of my head from back in the day . Iwas beating this kid up and his little brother came up from behind and clocked me over the head with his How the West was Won lunchbox...Zowie

The metal lunchboxes I remember having as a kid were Hot Wheels, Adam-12, Scooby-Doo and Marvel Superheroes. I might have had more but I don't remember.

At a job I had in the late 80's/early 90's I brought my lunch in an original Star Wars lunchbox .

[ShadowAvenger]

I had a few lunchboxes when I was growing up but I can only remember two of them. One had super heroes from DC Comics while the other had heroes from Marvel Comics.

[starsky]

i wanted the six million dollar man lunch box but it was too expensive. ended up with a cheaper scooby doo one.

I have a Dukes of Hazzard one my wife bought me a few years back. I was too old for one when they came out!

Did you ever drop your thermos and break the glass liner in it? That would ruin your day fast.

Been there did that and Yes, it sucked because was never hard on anything purposely. I always kept everything in good condition just as I do now.

hmm.....I had no idea they were banned either.

Some of the metal lunch boxes that I can remember having was:

Planet of The Apes
Star Trek
Space 1999
Dukes of Hazzard
