They do. I got the backpack for Christmas. 8^) It has three
sections, plus a stretchy mesh net to hold a water bottle. I don't use
mine to haul books around, but I do use it to carry small-to-medium
sets and bags of LEGO parts around in case I have time to play
wherever I'm going.

The backpack is part of the LEGO Cargo System, which also includes a
piece of luggage on wheels, which I *also* got for Christmas. The
luggage on wheels is about the size of the ones the flight attendants
use, and comes with a standard flat 32x32 baseplate for use in the
airport or on the plane.

Hmph. My UFO watch is of the earlier generation, then, because its box
didn't come with a stud. One thing I really would like to see in a
parts pack is extra watchband pieces in multiple colors. In order to
get more watchband bits, you have to either buy another watch or lie to
CA.
