I think my fav obscure/not really ridiculous product are the Idea Books that with full blown sets
I always wish I had some of these as a kid, been thinking if I should like get a PDF to remake some of these

Those books were my childhood…
I have three of them: pirates, castle, and Chima. I also have that Crazy Action Contraptions book, and I would highly recommend building the models. The rubber bands would be a bit tricky to find, but you should be able to replace them with standard office rubber bands.
Overall the Brickmaster books are pretty good, if you find one with all the pieces I would highly recommend it. They have little comics inside and a surprisingly large selection of things to build.

I had a ton of these; Castle, City, Atlantis, 2012 Ninjago, both Clone Wars ones and Crazy Action Contraptions
Really fun sets, and most of them were my introduction to each theme
