I've read Tillie (Linda T's) blog about how she melts her wax.
My question is, can I use metal/glass bowls, pots, instead of tupperware?
Pros and cons?

Just don't use thin plastic that warps when it gets hot. I use metal pans and plastic containers. I put a 1/2" of water in the bottom so that the wax is easier to remove.
Try to get stainless steel pans. Avoid aluminum and some other metals as it can react with the wax and discolor it. I bought stainless steel restaurant type buffet pans (2 sizes) at Sam's Club.
