My lunch container would be based off of the "Housekeeping" instance, which is one of my favorite instances so far. The container would be in the form of a soul bag and have NPCs from that instance on it.

On the back of the lunchbox, an arrangement of some our more villainous villains: Velah, Strad, Black Abbot, Lailat, Titan, a Beholder, etc.
On the sides, the dragon types we have in the game.
On the lid: A display of some of our more heroic heroes: Jeets, Cellimas, Talbron, ummm... others.
On the thermos (the all-important thermos), Stormreaver on one side, a Kobold on the other.

The box would be a functional lunch box. The illustration would consist of a table with Lars Heyton and Amalgam sitting down or lunch. Upon the table a feast of ham, bacon, and broccoli. Lars Heyton would be bear hugging the contents of this table while shouting, "Oh no! The Sahuagin found me!" Amalgam would be falling back in his chair amidst the chaos. Bursting in the two entryways would be Sahuagin wearing bibs while holding forks and knives in opposing hands. :D

I like this one!

I *do* worry what the other side illustration would look like when he's explaining, "We beat them off - this time."

My lunchbox...?

While I like the chest/cube/d20 ideas, I'd probably just have a standard lunchbox with Erol Otis's old school black 'n white illustrations. But picking which two... that would be difficult. :o

Alternate idea...

A clear lime green plastic, molded to look kinda drippy. Oddly angled shelves inside would give the appearance that the food inside is floating - suspended even.
A Gelatinous Cube lunch box!

As an officially licensed Kobold Union lunchbox, it would have a picture of Foreman Wee Yip Yip on the outside and on the inside a copy of the:

KOBOLD MINION UNION RULEBOOK

1. Kobold Union workers are paid to haul crystals to home base. Union workers are not paid to think.
2. Kobold Union workers must remain within 20 paces of Safety Incense Torches at all times.
3. Workers are not allowed to move the torches. Leave that to security professionals (i.e. adventurers).
4. Union Foreman has additional torches in stock at Union regulated prices.
5. Union workers are not issued weapons because of 'the last time'.
6. In case of combat, workers are authorized to scream and run around in panic until rescued.
7. Beware purple crystals! They are worth more, but are unstable. Approach with caution. Kobold Union is not liable for purple-explosion-of-doom-related casualties.
8. The Union takes a percentage cut of whatever they earn, and gives the rest to security (i.e. adventurers). But if the quota isn't met, security gets nothing!
9. Union Foreman may hire additional workers up to Union-established workplace safety limit.
10. Union fees increase on each confirmed casualty due to hazardous work environment.
11. Union Foreman issues barrels to security to distribute as they see fit. Do not fight over barrels.
12. In case of death, Union will issue outstanding wages to next of kin, then plan on hiring next of kin.
13. Workers are authorized to touch Kobold Teleporters to get back to base quickly. Foreman has two in stock, to be deployed by security.
14. Workers are not authorized to move Kobold Teleporters. That's security's job.
15. Adventurers can use Pirate Port or Touring Tonic to get back to base. They're too hot-blooded to use Kobold Teleporters.
16. Foreman honors Requisition Forms as well as raw crystals for purchases.
17. Requisition Forms are sold in the store, but may also be found as trophies.
18. If all adventurers leave the mining area, the Union will abandon the site and go home.
19. No biting. No excuses.

Malicia, Jeets, Talbron, Cellimas, and one of my characters are playing strip poker where Talbron is winning and wearing everyone's clothes all at once and Jeets seems like he's trying to lose with a beholder acting as the dealer and Scrag the kobold is serving drinks as a waiter, but unknown to them the table they are playing cards on is really a mimic waiting to eat them.

Malicia, Jeets, Talbron, Cellimas, and one of my characters are playing strip poker where Talbron is winning and wearing everyone's clothes all at once and Jeets seems like he's trying to lose with a beholder acting as the dealer and Scrag the kobold is serving drinks as a waiter, but unknown to them the table they are playing cards on is really a mimic waiting to eat them.
