The evolution of spherically symmetric unstable scalar field configurations (``bubbles'') is examined for both symmetric (SDWP) and asymmetric (ADWP) double-well potentials. Bubbles with initial static energies $E_0\la E_{{\rm crit}}$, where $E_{{\rm crit}}$ is some critical value, shrink in a time scale determined by their linear dimension, or ``radius''. Bubbles with $E_0\ga E_{{\rm crit}}$ evolve into time-dependent, localized configurations which are {\it very} long-lived compared to characteristic time-scales in the models examined. The stability of these configurations is investigated and possible applications are briefly discussed.tic time-scales in the models examined. The stability of these configurations is investigated and possible applications are briefly discussed.
