I can't even begin to describe the shade of green my envy is....but it is deep green....
My husband just picked one up yesterday at a rummage sale, You'd think he was a kid in a candy store he was so happy! Looks about the same condition. He also picked up a Get Smart lunchbox from back in the day. But gave that one away. :(
Update - I found the matching thermos! I've added 2 pics of it. Now, my Hot Wheels lunchbox is complete.
