I would have pined over that lunchbox as a kid. It might just be me, but when I was a kid it was kind of the cusp of changing from metal to plastic lunchboxes. And I just didn't like the plastic lunchboxes as much because they were completely flat (most of the lunchboxes I had were dimensional) and they felt way cheaper. This would have been an awesome compromise. Because this is just OK in my opinion.visitors can't see pics , please register or login

It's so nice to see this from Hasbro! I wonder if it'll pique the curiousity of some FiM fans, maybe spread the G1 pony love! Always wonderful to see more new collectors becoming interested.

I had both metal lunchboxes as a younger child and plastic ones later on. I still have some of the metal ones (I wish I still had the metal tv trays). Downside of the metal ones is that they don't survive as nicely as the plastic ones did overtime (or at least mine anyways). My plastic ones are basically fine (with expected wear from carrying them to school everyday), but the metal ones have rust in a bunch of places and scratched off paint.That Play-doh MLP lunchbox is adorable.
I had a plastic lunchbox as a kid with Love Melody and maybe Dancing Butterflies on it. It was pink and it still has its image on it now. I use it to store small merch frrom my childhood, like hairclips and pens and stuff. In the UK ones, produced by Bluebird I think? They didn't use a paper label but a decal. Of course, you could scratch those off...I had a couple of flasks that have been a little...scratched...but the main decal on my lunchbox is still good.I never saw metal lunchboxes here for MLP or even any toy when I was a kid. But I feel like Bluebird at the time really had a monopoly on kids' lunchboxes, since they did a lot of popular characters.visitors can't see pics , please register or loginYep, here it is, with some of its friends picked up from carboot sales. The images have lasted really well since the TAF one is about 1988 and the other even older. And they obviously got wet a lot...Also, LOL at the angry bronies.
There were no 80s metal lunchboxes for MLP as far as I know. The ones my family had were from the 70s I think? Scooby Doo, etc.
