    I think I may have had this! :-) I actually watched the show for a bit as a young’un…

    Them eyes! Them octopus eyes. It’s like a toon monster wandered in from another show.

    A little before my time as far as lunchboxes go. (I had a King Kong ’76, and a Six Million Dollar Man lunchbox in elementary school). Love the googly eyed octopus.

  • Beckoning Chasm

    Boy, that is one angry octopus. Probably because it hasn’t been getting much sleep lately, with all those submersibles having loud parties at all hours.

  • I think I had a lunch box like this (not of this series mind, but a series). For the life of me I can’t think who was on it. Probably Spider-man.

  • Ericb

    I had plenty like this. I distinctly remember having one for U.F.O.

    The Seaview has big sea viewing windows but, they are watching a video feed (coming from?).

    So is this what Marvin the Martian looks like without the Roman getup?

  • bgbear_rnh

    He’s got a hold of the flying sub and he looks like he is upset that he does not have a can opener.

  • Rock Baker

    From the set up here, it’s obviously the forward camera, well established from both the film and the series.

  • Rock Baker

    Do the Seaview’s observation windows look oddly small to anyone else? I thought they were a touch wider, covering more of the front of the vessel.

  • bgbear_rnh

    Yes, I guess I was thinking that the video view and front of lunch box view were concurrent.

  • bgbear_rnh

    I do not recall two rows of windows but, I guess that was the original film that had two rows of smaller windows.

  • Rock Baker

    Oh, the Seaview always had two rows of observation windows. It’s easily the sub’s most distinguishing feature.

  • bgbear_rnh

    OK, now I am lost, got to go back to Irwin Allen school ;)

  • Rock Baker

    One of the most enjoyable universities on earth!

  • bgbear_rnh

    It is the only school where earthquake drills are conducted in Sensurround!.

  • Rodford Smith

    Don’t have this, but I have the novel (I think there was only one). It was written by technical SF writer Raymond F. Jones and published by Whitman in 1965. It’s actually a pretty good story.
