HEY! THE LUNCH BOX SOME PUNK USED TO BEAT THE CRAP OUT OF MY SISTER IS ON EBAY.


Never thought I see that again, but there it was in all its 799KBs of glory. 
The Fall Guy lunch box (with Thermos) that some 9 yr. old used to send my sister to the nurse's office. I'm older than my sister so we had lunch periods at different times. So I was unable to come to her rescue.
Apparently what happened is this little, slightly hyperactive runt of a girl thought my sister cut in line for free fudgesicle day. My sister said she didn’t and I believe her. However, this kid thought otherwise and grabbed the nearest thing to smack her with – a metallic 1981 Fall Guy Lunch Box. My sister sustained a minor bump to the head, nothing serious. She's fine today.
FYI…The FALL GUY starred Lee Majors and Heather Thomas. The show lasted from ’81 – ’86.
The lunchbox itself sells for $99.99 on ebay.
This Heather Thomas poster sells for $13 on ebay 
– one of the first visuals I had ever pleasured myself to. TMI?

    I had a My Little Pony lunchbox. I also unknowingly had a Playboy Bunny bunny sticker inside the lunch box. I just liked the sticker because it was a bunny...I didn't know any difference.

    That is messed up. Are you going to try and buy it so you can let her smash it as therapy?

    Fudgsicles are dangerous, not as dangerous as Klondike Bars, but still enough to sustain injuries over.

    I totally remember this show. Did it have Adrian Zmed...no wait, that was TJ Hooker with Captain Kirk and Heather...oh, wait that was Heather Locklear...bet heather Thomas hated that...but, I do recall my mom watching the Fall Guy. Wasn't he the guy who did all the stunts/detective? Wonder if you can watch old episodes online/netflix?

    that what happens when you hit puberty, you become too old to use lunchbox, and you get a poster.

    Holy assault! That would hurt! Your sister is pretty tough. You literally can find ANYTHING on ebay. Old lunch boxes, collectibles, kidneys...ok, maybe not that one.
    I am unfamiliar with Fall Guy, but from the lunch box, I am intrigued!! :)

    OMG,The Fall Guy! What a hoot. Did you know that your poster girl went on to become a major coke (or heroin) addict. Can't remember her drug of choice. That's why she faded fast. That thing could have killed your sister. They were heavy when packed full. Those were the days.

    OMG! I had a "fight" with a friend when I was nine. She came at me, so I held up my lunch box (not Fall Guy though, so I'm not the brute from your story!) and she ran into it and gave herself a bloody nose. She told her mom I HIT her though, so guess who got into trouble?

    That's a crazy expensive lunchbox.

    The only way your story would have been better is it was a 'Knight Rider' lunchbook. In fact I thought it was when I first looked at it. I came back to North America too late to see all the hype around Farrah but I thought Heather Thomas was the 'bomb diggity.'

    I would totally use it today if I had one of those. I carried my lunch in a metal Spider-Man lunch box for years.

    You didn't hunt her down later and beat her senseless with a GI Joe Lunch Box? Oh man!

    It does not get any more 80's than this lunch box. Congratulations.
