Godzilla becomes a Japanese randoseru backpack, as do two of his greatest rivals [Photos]

In a unique partnership, Toho, the producer of the iconic Japanese Godzilla films, has collaborated with Dinosaurbase, a company from Fukui Prefecture, to create a collection of randoseru backpacks inspired by the legendary kaiju. Randoseru backpacks, known for their durability and functionality, are typically used by school students in Japan. However, these backpacks have evolved to include fashionable and fun designs, with Toho and Dinosaurbase's latest offering featuring Godzilla, King Ghidorah, and Mechagodzilla.

Each of the three backpacks maintains the same robust construction but showcases distinct textures. Godzilla's skin texture is highlighted by an irregular pattern of ridges, while King Ghidorah's bag features serpentine scales in a regal gold color. Mechagodzilla, on the other hand, mimics the robot's armor plating. Opening the flap reveals an intimidating portrait of each kaiju on the underside, with Godzilla and Mechagodzilla depicted as they appeared in their debut films, and Kind Ghidorah in his form from 1991's Godzilla vs. King Ghidorah.

The backpacks also share a metallic side hook, with color coordination matching the main kaiju's hue. However, each kaiju has a separate zipper pull and lenticular image crest on the front of its shoulder strap, depicting them unleashing their destructive powers. All bags are identically sized, measuring 23.5 x 31 x 13.5 centimeters (9.3 x 12.2 x 5.3 inches), with a squared-off central compartment to keep textbooks and notebooks neatly stacked.
