I think the metal boxes were phased out somewhere around '85 or '86 I think? I believe that the Rambo lunchbox was the last metal one (until years later). John III – I totally agree with you on the Black Hole box. It was all about the robots. Maximillian was one badass robot. Cool film.

The Universal monsters lunchbox was a dream come true for me! My favorite box, and one of only a few that I still have from my childhood. The artwork, colors – great. A nice representation of monsters too!

I had that Hulk lunchbox. Found out who The Leader was just by starring at it everyday.

I feel bad for any kid who showed for the new school year with a Black Hole lunchbox. Oooh, Ernest Borgnine and Maximillian Schell! Kids love those guys!

It was right around when this catalog came out that I was "too old" for a lunchbox. Bog boys brought their lunch in brown paper bags.
I'm glad I'm mature enough now t have that Marvel Heroes lunchbox. I alternate with my DC lunchbox.

Does anyone know what year metal boxes were phased out in favor of plastic.

Holy buckets!

I think I had the "Disney Express" and "Marvel Heroes" lunch boxes at one time or another. Wow... FLASHBACK moment for me with the Disney one.
