Beat me to the joke lol

Awesome packaging work, I mean, who actually needs to see what you get?! Mystery bags for CHI quests are sure to sell, why should we let the customer see the parts?

This reminds me that the Xtra bags are not sold anymore by LEGO. I always like the parts packs. I hope they bring those back in some form.

I collected most of the Brickmaster books, they were really cool.

Looking at the inventory that is a rather motley assortment of parts. Looks like they just gathered up a bunch of spares and chucked them in one bag rather than waste them

I remembered getting this book from Amazon, it came kinda crushed so they sent me a replacement foc.

Not quite as awesome packaging as BlueBrixx ;-)

The packaging was fine. It is just that someone decided to catalogue this inner bag as a set at bricklink unlike other brickmaster books.

The quest is to open the box to see the CHI parts?

Indeed. Those beautiful brown boxes of exquisite thick cardboard at least are built like a tank - and just as attractive. ;-)

No need for an external link (that will probably be a dead link later, anyway), there's an entry for the book right here: https://brickset.com/sets/ISBN9781409326069-1

"This is what (one of its builds) looks like:

Pretty nice. I didn't know much about this one because I never bothered to pay it any heed before. Stuff like this is why I love the RSotD so much."

We don't have that image here., though, that I can see. Weirdly, the book's database page has an "Images" tab, but there are no images there, just three blank spaces.

It says it’s a Brickmaster set. For those who are unfamiliar with the term, Brickmaster was a subscription service where you paid in advance and got one new set every other month. It was also a series of DK books that had sets packed in the cover. This was the latter, so the book provided all the artwork necessary to advertise what you could build from the contents, hence the Service Pack style bag."

Precisely, I remember those well. It’s just funny because all the ones I remember seeing are photographed this way, except 11914.

@CCC:
It’s not the only one (see below).

11900 and 11902 are photographed with the print on the back side of the bag so you can see the parts. 11903, 11904, and 11905 are photographed with the print blocking the parts from view because that lets you see the set number. 11914 is the true oddball because it’s photographed with the set number facing forward, but all the parts visible, because they moved all the warning text to the other side of the bag. The only thing printed on the reverse of the first two bags (and probably the next three as well) is the recycle code.
