Not the lunch sets per sey but they have the lock & lock boxes at Wal-Mart - that's where I got mine - then added a lunchbox / cooler.
I'm on a get healthy kick - since I quit smoking - next stop weight loss - let the journey begin.
Oooh my new set (and incidentally the one I now use most frequently), is like the first two (minus the bottle), but I got it in Vietnam... so that's probably not really helpful to you :/
"A common way to tell if it is well cooked is to throw the sausage onto a hard surface; if it bounces, the sausage is good."

Unfortunatly, not the box set, but recently while I was in Ross (if you don't have one, it's like a TJ-Maxx or Marshalls) and i found all kinds of random lock and lock containers decently priced while rummaging the kitchen section. However, with those stores it can be hit or miss, but it doesn't hurt to look anyway (you might find other neat kitchen goodies)!
Yum yum bento yum yum!
They're available in Australia (sorry, I can't see where you live) in homewares stores and David Jones (department store). I have one and it's pretty good. A bit big just for lunch though, but if you need snacks as well it's pretty great.
I bought exactly that set yesterday for about $15. I got the last one. BUT, I know where to find it, so the next time I'm up there I'll watch for you. (I didn't see where you live, but if you're in California, I got it at MV Imports in San Mateo on 3rd.)
Send me a private message if you get one before you hear from me.
It looks the same to me as this set, but in different colours, with a different bag:

If this is the one that people are after, I know a Canadian on-line source (I think they only ship to Canada though)

Again, not that set exactly, but in Canada Zellers sells a wide selection of lock & lock boxes.
-g.
i am from sydney. My friend had the same set that you wanted. She said that she got from www.amway.com.au, I looked the website, but no this type of lock & lock box at moment. here is sydney, very hard to find the nice bento box.
I've purchased a lock and lock set from Australia. I can't get anyone else in the UK or anyone who will deliver to the UK.

Should be here in about 10 days time.
Total cost delivered was $43 Aus, which is £20.34 GBP or $27.67 US
I can't wait , I'm so excited to have found this!!!

I sent you a pm begging you to get one for me. :)
For anyone in the Toronto area:
PAT supermarket on Bloor near Christie station carries Lock and Lock lunchsets. They have two boxes (one has partitions), a a water bottle and some foldable chopsticks. They have both red and grey (perhaps blue as well, not sure). They are CAD 16.99.
They bag and the boxes are look like these -- pretty! (the bag is not striped -- sort of a solid color, with small polkadots, and also taller (to fit the bottle) and the chopsticks come in a holder and are collapsible)

the bottle is like the one here, just a different color for the cap.

Here is a better picture

Just imagine a deep red box and a red bag, plus chopsticks.
That Lock and Lock set is available for $14-15 at Kukje Market in Daly City, California; both in red stripes and blue stripes. They also carry a smaller version without the drink container for slightly less. I don't use the drink container, but like the larger style because I can add a piece of fruit or another container if I like.
