Had a plastic Peanuts lunch box, back when most lunch boxes were metal. My favorite, though - and one that didn't get used much - was my BATTLE OF THE PLANETS lunch box... Which I still have!Micronauts Collector, Historian, Consultant

The first lunchbox I vividly remember carrying to school was a Marvel one... it had several characters on it, including I think Captain America, Thor, and Spidey.
After that, it was a Star Wars one, and then an Empire Strikes Back one.
Edit: Just found a picture of the Marvel lunchbox on the net.

I remember encountering this tin version and being really surprised because the Canadian one I had as a kid was red plastic with the same graphic as a sticker in front (Thor Spiderman Cap), and it didn't have the graphics on the side nor the FF on the back.
I always wondered what was up with that and why we didn't have the tin ones (as far as I can remember).Comment

I just found another of these last week at a flea market and upgraded from the one that had some rust spots on it.

That's it! That just unlocked the memory of my Marvel lunchbox fully. I now realize I had the plastic version too.
When I found that picture of the metal one, there was something about it that didn't seem exactly right, but I couldn't quite place it.
Now I know it's because I had the Canadian plastic version!
Just had a quick look, but can't seem to find any pics of the plastic one anywhere on the net.Last edited by Bruce Banner; Jul 22, '11, 7:33 AM.PUNY HUMANS!Comment
