March 25th, 2005 2:15PM When I was a kid, I loved getting a new lunchbox every year. It allowed me to show off my tastes, both in food (okay, so it usually only housed a PB&J, milk, and some sort of fruit) and in entertainment. I remember having Superman II, The A-Team, and for some reason, Heathcliff. Flash-forward many years later. I have a two-year-old little boy who loves Superman, Spider-man, and The Incredibles, yet I can't find a single B&M that carries lunchboxes of any of these. Okay, so it's the wrong time of year; that's fine, but I should be able to find them online. I can't find a single Incredibles lunchbox anywhere online, and the only Superman and Spider-man ones are the wimpy padded ones - I want at least plastic, if not a weapons-grade metal one. But, there does appear to be quite a market for lunchpails for 20- and 30-somethings. I found Kill Bill, Casablanca, Friday the 13th, Kurt Cobain, and Sex Pistols lunchboxes. Not quite good choices for the two-year-old, but I wouldn't mind having the poster art Nightmare on Elm Street one for myself. |
