Just another nerd.


Batman, imma let you finish, but Planet of the Apes had one of the best lunch boxes of all time.
Seriously, though, I’m thinking of ditching my Spider-Man lunch tote for this.
OMG yes… a Buffy the Vampire Slayer Lunch Box. The only way this could be more full of win is if it came with a matching thermos. The first image below is the front of the lunch box, and the bottom image is the back.
I’m getting two — one for display, and one to take my lunch to work (currently alternating between Spider-Man and Superman lunchboxes).
I think everyone who collects something inevitably reaches a point where crossing over into something will turn the hobby into an obsession. For me, that point which I is lunchboxes. I actually own several superhero-themed lunch boxes (all purchased cheaply in supermarkets), but they sit tucked away in my basement as, frankly, they scare me a little bit. That’s just going a bit too far for my taste.
So sometimes I’m tempted to pick up a copy of Warman’s Lunch Boxes Field Guide, but I know the next step is bidding wars on eBay for that 1974 Planet of the Apes metal lunchbox that I sincerely believed made me the coolest kid evar in school. But $110 or so for a nostalgic lunch box? That way, my friend, lies madness.
