Marks and Spencer has released a new limited edition item as part of a much loved collection and shoppers say they “need” to get their hands on it. Home to the iconic Colin the Caterpillar, M&S has created a Colin backpack that “will turn your friends green with envy.”

New to the M&S Foodhall the “must have accessory” is “perfect” for little ones planning an outdoor adventure this spring.

Retailing for £12 the limited edition backpack will get you 50% off admission to a participating National Trust place this season when you scan your Sparks card upon purchase.

When you open your bag up you’ll be delighted to know the famous caterpillar has packed it with all his favourite treats including Colin fruit gums, chocolate coins and Colin munch.

Revealing the backpack online, M&S said: “New In The M&S Foodhall – THE MUST HAVE ACCESSORY for Spring has landed (and even better, it’s full of sweets!)”

Colin superfans were quick to react to the nifty bag, with one M&S fan wondering: “Oh my goodness! This is so cute! It’s acceptable for a 26 year old to wear one, right?!”

One user said: “That's gonna be a sell out!”

Katie said: “now there’s a backpack.”

Another user commented: “I NEED this backpack.”
