Complex
In the premiere episode of On Display, actor and former WWE superstar Dave Bautista takes us into his sprawling Florida compound to show us his collection of vintage lunch boxes.
From an iconic 1954 Superman box, to the “Toppie,” one of the rarest lunch boxes in the world with only 12 copies known to exist, Bautista has put together an incredible collection over the past 20 years.
We also get a tour of Bautista’s 5-acre estate that includes life-sized dinosaurs, a retro movie theater, and a garage full of Rolls Royces and Harley Davidsons.
On Display is a new show from Complex about collections. From lunch boxes to typewriters, host Joe La Puma takes us to celebrities’ homes to see some of the most interesting collections in the world.

Batista collecting lunch boxes is the best thing I’ve seen all day.
This is great. Can’t wait to see more of this sort of stuff. As a fellow collector it’s always interesting to see who collects what and what gets them excited about it.
