Hot Lunch – Lunch Boxes

There are a few monumental events I remember from my days in elementary school.  Every summer my sister and I were allowed to choose the lunch box that would define our upcoming year.  There was a definite process to my selections.  Something cartoony might have seemed too childish (especially for an 8 year old), which is why I’d go the film route.  My two most memorable lunch boxes were from Gremlins and Rambo: First Blood Part 2.  What was I thinking?

If you want to relive the days of your youth, Dark Horse has released several lunch boxes from the Hot Lunch exhibit.  Back in 2005, the La-La Land Gallery held a custom lunch box show featuring over 30 artists.  Eight of these designs have been released to collectors.

The designs are as follows:

Amanda Visell – A Robot Wants My Lunch Box

Coop

Gary Baseman – Lunch of Unearthly Delights

Greg Simkins – Wanna Sammich

Joe Ledbetter – Dragon Tongue

Kii Arens – La-La Lunch

Niagara – Baby Doll

Shag – My First Cocktail
